SAINT JOSEPH, MO — Due to flooding in the area, the U.S. Postal Service has made the decision to emergency suspend the Stockyards St. Joseph Retail Facility located at 5706 Lake Avenue effective March 22, 2019.

In the interim, Post Office Box delivery and retail services have been relocated to the St. Joseph, Missouri Main Post Office located at 201 S. 8th Street. 

The St. Joseph Main Post Office is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and Saturday from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.  Stockyards customers may retrieve their PO Box mail and notice-left items during those times with photo ID.

The Postal Service will do everything possible to continue providing uninterrupted service to the community while emphasizing the safety of our employees and customers as our first priority. At this time, it is unknown when services will resume at the Stockyards facility.

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