USPS & Holiday Shipping Deadline Watch

Track postal and shipping service for US households. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days, or same-day for service alerts: USPS stamp and postage rate changes and Postal Regulatory Commission filings with effective dates; delivery standard, processing facility and network changes by region with expected delay effects; post office closures, hours changes and passport service changes; USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL and Amazon holiday shipping cutoffs by service level; Forever stamp buy-before-increase windows; mail theft, check washing and arrow key alerts from the Postal Inspection Service by metro; Informed Delivery, package intercept, hold mail and PO Box changes; and service disruptions from weather, outages or system failures. Prefer USPS, the Postal Regulatory Commission, the Postal Inspection Service, carrier announcements and established consumer reporting; ignore rumors and unverified delay complaints. Put the service or region first in the title with the date. Use high severity for a rate increase within 30 days, a holiday cutoff within 7 days, a regional delivery standard change, or a theft alert affecting a metro over one million. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
