BELLMAWR — On June 11, the U.S. Postal Service presented a proposal at a community meeting that included the relocation of the Dover Post Office, located at 55 Loockerman Plaza, to a yet-to-be-determined location.

After consideration of discussion and feedback, the Postal Service has announced it is moving forward on the proposal because it cannot renew its lease at the current location. The relocation will allow the Postal Service to maintain retail and delivery operations for customers in the Dover area for the long term.

As noted, postal retail services will remain in the community at the current location until the replacement facility is open and operating as a Post Office. There will be no change to Post Office Box numbers or ZIP Codes.

The Postal Service will update the community when more information is available.

The Postal Service does not receive tax dollars for operating expenses; it relies entirely on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
