What:

As part of USPS recovery efforts after the Marshall Fire the Louisville Post Office will be delivering mail, medications, and packages to accessible homes on Sunday January 2nd. Customers in areas that are not accessible or where homes have been destroyed can pick up their mail on Sunday from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. at the Louisville Post Office. No retail service will be available on Sunday. Normal business hours will resume on Monday. PO Box customers mail will be current and available.

We’d like to invite you to visit the Louisville Post Office to see the herculean efforts over the weekend to resume delivery and make our building accessible and safe. Great visual opportunities will exist for carrier shadows as they deliver through impacted neighborhoods. Carriers from the Front Range and across Colorado have volunteered to help restart this service.
