The U.S. Postal Service is considering moving the East Austin post office from its current location at 1914 E. Sixth St. Residents are encouraged to share their thoughts before the February 2 deadline. While no public meeting will be held, USPS seeks feedback via comments to gauge community sentiment about the proposed relocation.
Hey, residents of East Austin! Have you heard the buzz? The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) is tossing around the idea of relocating the East Austin post office. Yep, you read that right! If you’re one of the folks who has been dropping by the post office at 1914 E. Sixth St., this news might catch your attention.
So here’s the scoop: USPS has been sending out postcard notifications to customers in East Austin about the proposed move. They are looking into another spot within three miles of the current post office, which is quite a decent range! Although talk of relocation has been stirring the waters, there won’t be a public meeting to gather opinions. Instead, they want to hear from you through comments!
If you have any thoughts about this potential move, now’s your chance! Simply grab a pen and jot down your comments. Make sure to send them to the following address:
Attn: Austin, TX, East Austin Station Relocation
U.S. Postal Service
PO Box 27497
Greensboro, NC 27498-1103
But don’t procrastinate! You need to get your comments in by the February 2 deadline. After that, USPS will collect all the feedback and decide whether to go ahead with the move, change their plans, or even scrap the idea altogether.
If the relocation does happen, USPS will get busy finding a new space that’s suitable for post office operations. They’ll get the new location ready and then transition everything so you can continue to send your letters and packages without a hitch. In the meantime, don’t worry if you need to pop in for services—customers can still access USPS retail services over at 4516 Burleson Road until they find a new home for the post office.
As we move into this new chapter, let’s hope the East Austin post office can find a way to better serve everyone in the area. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates as they come, and don’t forget to send in your comments before the deadline!
