BROOKLYN NY — The U.S. Postal Service in Brooklyn wants to help simplify the time you spend shipping packages and tending to other mailing needs. Customers can maximize the time spent running around doing errands by visiting a contract postal unit (CPU). Contract postal units are alternate retail business locations that have received the USPS ‘stamp of approval’ as official postal partners — and often located right in your neighborhood — where you live, work or shop.
Customers are able to obtain stamps, ship packages and do so much more at their neighborhood contract postal unit. Many are found inside grocery stores, drugstores and other regularly visited locations.
