BATON ROUGE, LA — Due to torrential rains, which produced a ravaging flood in several Louisiana cities, customers will have to pick up their mail in nearby alternate post offices. Weyanoke LA Post Office  is now added to the list:

Greenwell Springs LA - 70739 to Zachary LA 70791
Baton Rouge – Central Finance Station 70818 to Scotlandville LA 70807
Weyanoke LA 70787 to St Francisville LA  70775

While customers can pick up their mail with proper identification at the alternate Post Offices, retail and shipping services will also be available, such as Priority Mail Express, Priority Mail and First through Fourth-Class postage. In addition, Special Services like Registered and Certified Mail will be available for customers

As water recedes in the impacted areas and conditions improve, both mail delivery and retail services will be restored at these three Post Offices.
