Postmaster General David Steiner announces a new solicitation process for USPS last-mile delivery. Shippers can bid for DDU access starting early 2026.

The U.S. Postal Service said on Wednesday it is seeking to boost revenue from its "last-mile" delivery network to major retailers and shippers as it warned of a looming financial crunch and said it could run out of cash as soon as early 2027.

With less than two weeks until Christmas, if you're sending gifts to people far from home, the deadlines to get them there on time are fast approaching.
