NEWPORT NEWS, VA — Following a community meeting and careful review of all public feedback, the Postal Service has made a final decision to relocate retail services at the Hidenwood Station located at 359 Hiden Blvd, Newport News, VA 23606.

The Postal Service is relocating its retail operation to a new space that suits the current requirements of the Postal Service and anticipates providing the same services at the new location as are currently provided to customers at the existing location. The Postal Service's goal is to select a new customer service location as close to the current site as possible.  Consideration will be given to sites that are convenient to customers and that will meet all USPS operational needs.

The Postal Service plans to continue to offer services at the existing Post Office until the replacement facility is open and operating as a Post Office. There will not be any changes to mail delivery.

While the Postal Service is sensitive to the impact of this decision on its customers and the Hidenwood community, the USPS properly considered community input and this decision is consistent with Postal Service objectives. 

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