US Postal Service may close hundreds of post offices

[mawilson 2,133]

The U.S. Postal Service is thinking of closing hundreds of post offices nationwide to save money.

The USPS has been hemorrhaging money since people don’t send many paper letters these days,

and also because advertisers don’t send as many circulars. Magazines sent by post have also

gotten slimmer, and therefore cheaper to send, as they’ve cut back advertising pages. This has

also hurt the postal service’s bottom line.

Many people now pay their bills online, a process favored by both payers (who don’t have to find

a stamp to put on the “Post office will not deliver mail without postage” box) and by those they

are paying, because funds get there quicker.

The service has cut some workers and raised stamp prices to stem its losses, but those changes

haven’t been enough, and the USPS stands to lose as much as $7 billion this fiscal year.

USPS has also sought to cut mail delivery by one day per week to save money.

The list of post offices being considered for closure is here.
