The U.S. Postal Service is rolling out a pilot program seeking to standardize mail delivery times, while leaving more items behind to go out the following day.
The test, which USPS will run at nearly 200 sites around the country, follows a set of policy directives from postal management that sought to crack down on late trips in an effort to reduce labor and transportation costs. The pilots will run for 30-60 days and, for now, affect only city carriers.
