Rising Mail Delays: Concerns Grow as Holiday Season Approaches

The U.S. Postal Service is experiencing a spike in mail delays as it enters its busiest time of the year, with on-time performance dropping to its lowest level in over two years. On-time delivery for First-Class mail reached 87.7% for the week ending Nov. 17, down from 91% in the previous quarter. The delays are attributed to various factors, including supply chain issues, insourcing of facilities, and a shutdown caused by a mercury spill. Postal stakeholders have expressed concerns about the impact of network changes and the prioritization of package delivery over mail. Despite the challenges, USPS remains confident in its ability to handle the holiday surge and minimize disruptions.
