Default Re: where to mail a letter?

I don't know about the rest of you, but, it seems when I put a letter into the local neighborhood postal center 'outgoing' slot that it takes at least one day longer to reach its final destination than if it is mailed at the post office. Our postal workers are contract carriers operating out of their personal vehicles. I wonder if the outgoing mail ends up in their vehicle for an extra day and doesn't make it back to the post office til the next day?

As an alternative JohnN, there is a mobile post office van at Sweetbay on Tues and Thurs...something I mailed there on a Tues (1st Class) arrived in DC suburbs on Friday.
