BOWLUS, MN – Due to safety and health concerns, the Bowlus Post Office has been emergency suspended until further notice.

Upon completion of a full facility assessment, potential risk of safety concerns exist. In a cautious effort to protect the safety of our customers and employees, the Bowlus Post Office has been closed until repairs are completed.

Bowlus is a leased facility and the landlord has been informed. 

In the interim, street delivery, Post Office Box delivery and retail services have been relocated to the Royalton Post Office located at 208 E Centre Street. Customers may continue dropping outgoing mail in the Bowlus collection box.

The Royalton Post Office is open Monday through Friday from 9:45 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. and Saturday 8:15 a.m. to 10:00 a.m.  Bowlus customers may retrieve Post Office Box mail and notice-left items during those times with photo ID.

The Postal Service will do everything possible to continue providing uninterrupted service to the community while emphasizing the safety of our employees and customers as our first priority. At this time, it is unknown when services will resume at the Bowlus facility.

The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
