NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA — Residents in North Hollywood have another convenient option when they need to pick up postage stamps or ship a package. There is a U.S. Postal Service (USPS) Village Post Office (VPO) open in El Camino Pharmacy, located at 10940 Victory Blvd., North Hollywood CA 91606.

As a VPO, El Camino Pharmacy adds the two most frequently purchased postal products and services ― Forever© stamps and Priority Mail Flat Rate products ― to its variety of offerings. Customers can also drop off stamped letters and prepaid mail. This new VPO will conveniently be open Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.; and Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

VPOs are a part of the network of outlets owned and operated by third parties to complement the Postal Service’s own network of retail Post Offices. This network, which includes Contract Postal Units, Approved Shippers and Stamps on Consignment locations, enables USPS to efficiently expand the availability of its products and services at convenient locations that customers already frequent.

“This is good news for our mutual customers,” said North Hollywood Postmaster Mary Jane Smith. "El Camino Pharmacy is offering customers a one-stop shopping experience where they can buy stamps and ship prepaid Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes at a convenient location they already visit.” 

There are over 800 Village Post Offices located in a wide variety of businesses across the country.
