The U. S. Postal Service delivers Monday through Saturday. That is one day longer than UPS and FedEx which charge a lot extra for weekend delivery. In fact Amazon.com contracts with some USPS offices for both Saturday and Sunday delivery. SOME Post Office locations have what USPS calls extended services, including the one I use, and those offices accept delivery of UPS and FedEx packages to box holders, although the addressing is the physical address of that postal service location followed by the box number, as if it were just a sub identification number.

The one downside of accepting deliveries at a USPS location is they take an extra day, because the packages to box holders are not sorted for pickup at the counter until after 10:30 a.m. the day after actual delivery. During the holiday shopping season it might even take 2 days extra.
