MADISON, Wis. It’s the most wonderful time of the year, but also the busiest for the United States Postal Service and The UPS Store.
With millions of packages being shipped nationwide, Keith Johnston, who owns The UPS Store on University Avenue, said the volume of packages they’re dealing with this year is up about 25%.
“We are getting things out the same day we get them,” Johnston said. We are packing them, shipping them, taking care of them on the same day.”
Johnston said his team is working longer hours to make sure packages are delivered on time. Employees with USPS are also working longer hours, according to USPS Communications Specialist Bob Sheehan.
