USPS

The United States Postal Service (USPS) is an independent agency of the U.S. federal government responsible for providing postal services. It delivers letters and packages across the country and has a long history dating back to 1775. USPS operates primarily through a network of post offices and delivery routes. It handles millions of shipments daily and offers various services, including first-class mail, priority shipping, and international delivery. Funded by service fees rather than taxpayer money, USPS has adapted over the years to changing technology and consumer needs while maintaining its mission to ensure universal mail delivery.
