Salter Path Post Office Closing it's Doors!

 


If you do not have a Post Office box located in the Salter Path Post Office, you may not be aware that they will be closing their doors on November 5th.   So if you stop by there to pick up stamps or mail packages, you will need to head to Atlantic Beach or Emerald Isle Locations starting on November 4th.


If you do have a Salter Path Post Office Box you do not need to worry about a new address or a new box & key.  What will happen is..... You can pick up your mail at the Salter Path Location until 1:00 PM on Saturday, November 5th, 2011.  They will re-locate the P.O. Boxes to the Atlantic Beach Post Office, Located at 1110 West Fort Macon Road.  So, on Monday, November 7th, when you go to pick up your mail, you will need to head to the Atlantic Beach Post Office, where you will find your old box.  They will have a separate area for Salter Path and you will be all set.  


 

As far as the wonderful & friendly folks that operate the Salter Path Location.... I don't know if you will find them at the Atlantic Beach location or not.... I hope so, they have been fabulous!  IF not, I hope they know how much we all appreciate the work they have done.... And always with a friendly smile on their faces.  We'll Miss You!

Amy, how sad to see long time businesses and friends going out of business. Sometimes change is NOT good! I wish them the best!

Ellen - You are right.... It is sad.  The Salter Path Post Office has always been my #1 choice for buying stamps and mailing packages because they were always so helpful & friendly.  And now, I must change my habits and pick up mail in Atlantic Beach!  From what I understand, many post offices around the country are shutting down.... They are consolidating.  With so many folks paying bills online or by phone, and paperless billing, electronic newsletters, emails....

I'm doing my part with my SendOutCards to help keep the post offices open.  Sad though none the less:(

Joe - I haven't jumped on board with SendOutCards yet (although, I do enjoy yours), but I still love to send snail mail.  I just think their is something special about a note.... Just Because!  It will be sad to see their doors close.
