HARTFORD, WI — The Hartford Post Office recently hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate its new 24-hour lobby access. The Post Office completed its lobby conversion and now is available 24-hours a day.
Retail hours at the facility are currently from Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m.to 5:00 p.m. and Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 12:00p.m. Access to postal blue collection boxes remains the same. With the new lobby times, customers will also have access to their Post Office Box mail and 24-hours a day with mail available daily for pick-up by [FILL IN TIME] a.m. Monday-Saturday.
“Post Office Boxes are as secure as mailboxes but provide more flexibility for mail pickup,” said Postmaster Diane Jones. “The convenience of earlier mail delivery is helpful to small business owners. Post Office Boxes provide home-based businesses with the ability to separate business and personal mail,” added Jones.
