Post Office Reminding Customers About Service Changes

Collection Mailboxes Temporarily Removed Due to Grand Prix Racing

August 31, 2011 



BALTIMORE, MD — The Baltimore Post Office wants to remind customers about service changes during the Labor Day Grand Prix Race. Collection receptacles in the 21201, 21202, and 21230 ZIP Code areas were temporarily removed Monday, August 29. They will be replaced Tuesday, September 6.

USPS will make every effort to provide delivery service to customers during dates stated above. However, congestion and road closures in the Baltimore area may prevent USPS from providing normal service.

Delivery service may be interrupted in the Ridgley's Delight, Otterbein, and Upper Federal Hill communities. Customers in the 21201 and 21202 delivery areas (if affected) can pick-up their mail at the Downtown Delivery Annex, 1000 E. Lexington Street, Baltimore MD 21202. Customers in the 21230 delivery area can pick-up their mail at South Station Finance, 146 W. Ostend Street, Baltimore MD 21230. Customers must present a photo ID when picking up mail. Regular pick-up and delivery of mail to affected ZIP Codes will resume Tuesday, September 6.

Collection points located in the vicinity of the festivities (see below) were removed Monday, August 29, because vehicular restrictions will prohibit access and personnel will be unable to retrieve mail from the receptacles. Collection points will be reinstalled Tuesday, September 6.
