Easter Sunday is a big, fancy federal holiday. The post office is closed. No bunnies deliver mail. But Easter Monday? That’s the trickster.
Most people assume the day after Easter is a universal day off. Wrong. The USPS treats it like a regular Monday. That means carriers are out, sorting machines are humming, and your bills are moving.
Unless you live in a place where the local government declares it a holiday. Check your town’s calendar. Some schools are closed, but the mail keeps going.
What About the Rest of the World?
Here’s where it gets wild. In Australia, Easter Monday is a national holiday. Post offices shut down tight. No parcels, no letters, no kangaroo delivery.
The United Kingdom is similar. Banks close, post offices close. It’s a day for eating leftover chocolate eggs and pretending you’re not hungover.
In Canada, it’s a mixed bag. Federal workers often get the day off, but private delivery services might still buzz your door. Confusing, right?
