USPS Is Suspending Services at 115 Post Offices, Effective Immediately
By Kali Coleman of Best Life |The Postal Service is closing post offices in three states.
When the USPS experiences unusual disruptions to its service, it warns customers through its Service Alerts website. With this tool, you can find out "if your local post office is open," according to the agency. Based on the Postal Service's latest update, many customers would do well to check. On the evening of Jan. 3, the USPS released three new alerts warning customers about service disruptions.
According to the updates, over 100 post offices have just been "temporarily closed" in three different states: Minnesota, Nebraska, and South Dakota. A total of 115 facilities are impacted.
There were 19 post offices shuttered in Nebraska, including those in cities such as Bassett and Atkinson. In South Dakota, 21 post offices were closed, including facilities in cities like Alexandria and Marion. Minnesota is facing the most closures: The USPS shut down 75 facilities in this state, which includes post offices in Sherburn and Winnebago.
