KUNA, Idaho – The U.S. Postal Service has selected the former Freedom Fitness building at 693 E. Wythe Court in Kuna, ID, as the relocation site for the Kuna Post Office.

The Postal Service’s current building is severely deficient in space for the current operation needs of the Postal Service. A new, larger facility is needed to better serve the Kuna community. The new location will provide a right-sized facility for both postal employees and its customers.

The new facility will be approximately 7,000 square feet and offer the same services currently provided to Kuna customers, including two retail windows, 636 Post Office Boxes, and several parcel lockers offering Post Office Box customers an easy, convenient and secure delivery option to pick up packages without going to the retail counter. Rural carriers will also work from the new location.

“This new location will provide the community with an upgraded, modern facility that offers the level of service expected by our customers,” said USPS Real Estate Specialist Greg Shelton.

Services will continue at the current location until the replacement facility is open and operating as a Post Office. A timeline for building completion has yet to be established.

It’s important to note that postal customers don’t have to visit a Post Office to conduct most transactions. Customers may buy stamps and ship packages through their rural carrier, also known as a Post Office on Wheels. There’s also Stamps By Mail (ask your carrier for a form), Stamps By Phone 1-800-STAMP-24 (1-800-782-6724), and the 24/7 online Post Office at usps.com where customers can buy stamps, change their address, print postage-paid shipping labels, and request a Free Package Pickup – all from the comfort of home or business.

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