So I know that packages are not DEVLIERED to your house on sundays and days such as columbus day, but do they still move?  Like if somethings being shipped across country will it be be any closer on monday morning than it was saturday night?

probably depends on how it was shipped.  I can't imagine that USPS does any work on Sunday's or government holidays as that's how the gvt rolls, but I'm almost 100% sure that your private companies like Fedex or UPS have people working 24/7.
