The_Kat Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I don't understand why, but for some reason the post office here in Cokeburg is only open 6 days a week, and locks their doors at 4 oclock every night. They don't open til 8. I leave for work every morning around 530 and don't get home til 530 at the VERY earliest. I work 13 days straight with one day off every other Sunday....YET THEYRE CLOSED. I'm not talking about the office part, I am also talking about the stinking PO boxes. I have bills and two packages there that I can't get! I called and complained last week and the lady told me I could have someone I trust pick up my mail for me. Ha, I'm from outta state and know nobody I'd trust to get my mail. Anyways it's just very frustrating. The PO back home keep their doors to the boxes open 24/7. How are people like me supposed to check their dang mail in this town?

redkneck Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I dont think I've ever seen a PO that didnt have 24/7 access to boxes, that sux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerClay Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Open 7 days a week? Must be a southern thing because in my 45 years of life I have never know a post office to be open on a Sunday. The latest I have ever know one to be open was 5:00pm. They have always closed at noon on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kat Posted June 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Let me clarify......I'm talking about the lobby with the PO Boxes, not the main office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of folks leave before they open and get home after they close, I can't imagine them not giving you access to your box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a PO box when I first moved up here. There was no access after noon or 1pm on Saturday and absolutely no access on Sunday. Big cities may be different though.

The_Kat Posted June 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I dunno, Cokeburg has 500 or less people lol. I just wish I could find a way to get my mail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I dont think I've ever seen a PO that didnt have 24/7 access to boxes, that sux. Same here. Everywhere I have lived that I can remember po boxes were in locations accessible 24/7, but the actual office doors locked during off hours. That stinks Kyle. Think I would have to contact someone higher up at the PO and let them know you cannot get your mail. Kind of defeats the purpose of having a po box if you cannot get into it.

Straight Shooter Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Yep, that sux right there-I don't care who you are. I've never known a Post Office either, that wasn't open or accessible to the boxes 24/7. Sorry to hear that Kyle- I know your pakcages could have a load of ***** in them. LOL j/k I hope you get it figured out soon, buddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Man that sucks Kyle. I think the post office is open 24/7 here for the PO boxes. Not 100% sure but I think I've seen people walking in there on Sundays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
