Services 

All regular postal services except bill payments and any type of money transfer. We do not have the resources to offer this service. 

Red Drop Box and Post Office Boxes

· Mail is sorted into the Post Office boxes between 0900 and 1000 AM each morning

· If you want your mail to go out on a given day, have it in the red box before 0900 or bring it down to the Post Office before 11:00 AM

· EXCEPTION: Mail is picked up at 9:00 AM on Friday therefore if you wish your mail to go out Friday get it into the Post Office (NOT the red box) before 5:00 PM Thursday

Mail and Parcels

· According to regulations we are only supposed to keep mail and parcels for 2 weeks then we are to send it back. Obviously, we have not been doing that. If you are going to be away longer than 2 weeks, please let us know length of time so we can hold your mail. Depending on the length of time there could be a fee charged for parcels.

· Please bring parcel tags to facilitate retrieving your parcels

If you choose to put your on-island letters in the drop box, please advise the people you are leaving them for that they are there. If you want the post office to distribute your on-island letters, put them in the red mailbox. The Post office will NOT be checking the drop box. We take no responsibility for the use of the drop box.
