DENTON, TX — The U.S. Postal Service recently welcomed employees to an event celebrating the opening of the Denton Sorting and Delivery Center (SDC). The special event offered employees a first look at the Postal Service’s latest investments to improve the employee experience and provide the community and surrounding regions with faster, more reliable service under the transformational Delivering for America plan.

The modernized Denton SDC is a culmination of the cultural change permeating throughout the Postal Service, focused on innovation, collaboration, problem-solving and competition. USPS facility investments across the state continue to make workplaces safer, more engaging spaces to work.

Investments to transform and modernize local facilities like the Denton SDC are a core tenet of the Delivering for America plan. As the Postal Service continues its path toward financial sustainability and high operating performance, these investments not only enhance operational precision and delivery efficiency but also prioritize a better working environment for its employees, ensuring a safer and healthier workplace.

At every level and across every operation, USPS is transforming into a more efficient, high-performing logistics and delivery enterprise supported by a dedicated workforce of nearly 640,000 men and women nationwide. Throughout its aggressive facility investments aimed at making service more reliable and affordable across the state, the Postal Service has emphasized the safety and wellbeing of its nearly 47,000 employees in the state.

As the Postal Service continues to move towards its vision as the nation’s preferred delivery provider in the country, USPS has committed more than $17 billion aimed at revitalizing its delivery networks and national infrastructure.

To date, more than $461 million in strategic local investments has been allocated to enhance operations in Texas. This includes more than $61 million to construct 23 new facilities, nearly $148 million to renovate 412 existing structures, and more than $92 million to purchase 28 state-of-the-art package sorting machines across the state.

Additionally, to better serve the more than 12.9 million addresses across the state and fulfill its universal service obligation, the Postal Service has also invested nearly $148 million to strengthen its delivery fleet and deploy more than 4,100 new vehicles in Texas.

These inspiring changes are part of more than $40 billion in strategic investments under the 10-year Delivering for America plan aimed at transforming and modernizing the organization. Upgrades across Texas and the nation continue to put the Postal Service on a positive trajectory and create a high performing, financially stable organization capable of providing the American public with the world-class service they expect and deserve.
