Postal Service Plans Relocation of Lexington Post Office

LEXINGTON, NC — The U.S. Postal Service plans to relocate the Lexington Post Office, currently located at 110 N. State St., to 722 S. Main St. when construction of the new facility is completed.

This project will allow the Postal Service to maintain and improve retail operations for our customers in Lexington for the long term. The Postal Service plans to provide services at the current facility until the new location is operational.

Since the Postal Service is sensitive to the impact of this decision on the community, customer input was requested and considered as a new location was determined.

To be self-sustaining, the Postal Service makes decisions to ensure it provides adequate and affordable services in a manner that is as efficient and economical.

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 167 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.
