1On April 3, June 19, and Dec. 23, FedEx Freight will be open with normal pickup and delivery operations and a modified linehaul schedule. Shipments picked up that are not moved will resume transit on the next normal operating day. For example, a one-day shipment picked up on Dec. 23 will resume on Dec. 28 and be delivered on Dec. 29.

2On Dec. 31, FedEx Freight will be open with only prearranged pickup and delivery shipments being made. Freight shipments picked up on Dec. 31 will resume on Jan. 4. For example, a one-day shipment picked up on Dec. 31 will resume on Jan. 4 and be delivered on Jan. 5.

Note: FedEx Freight charges a redelivery fee when a FedEx Freight delivery attempt is made but is unsuccessful due to a customer closure, of which FedEx Freight was not previously notified, subject to the terms and conditions of the FXF 100 Series Rules Tariff.

Note: When scheduling a FedEx Freight shipment on or around a holiday, including holidays not listed above (e.g., Mardi Gras, etc.), contact your local freight service center at 1.866.393.4585 for the most up-to-date information.

Note: The information shown here reflects our current operating schedules planned for these holiday periods. These dates are subject to change, however. Any updates will be posted on this page, so please check back as the date of the holiday approaches.
