Fountain Post Office Reopens

Building repaired and normal operations resume

Fountain – A runaway vehicle crashed through the building last week, forcing operations to be temporarily suspended.

Efforts over the weekend to make the building accessible and safe were successful. The Fountain Post Office opened on Monday, July 31 and is operating normal business hours. Fountain Post Office is open Mon-Fri from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. and Sat from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.

The Postal Service wishes to extend appreciation to customers for their patience through our recovery period.

The United States Postal Service is an independent federal establishment, mandated to be self-financing and to serve every American community through the affordable, reliable and secure delivery of mail and packages to 169 million addresses six and often seven days a week. Overseen by a bipartisan Board of Governors, the Postal Service is implementing a 10-year transformation plan, Delivering for America, to modernize the postal network, restore long-term financial sustainability, dramatically improve service across all mail and shipping categories, and maintain the organization as one of America’s most valued and trusted brands.

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