MONROE - There will be no mail delivery or retail service at the Monroe post office Monday, Feb. 18, as the office will be closed in observance of Presidents' Day.

However, customers are encouraged to still drop their mail in collection boxes, to be processed early the next day.

"We want to advise anyone with stamped or metered mail ready for delivery to drop this mail into a blue collection box as soon as possible," said Monroe Postmaster Douglas Crooks. "This also applies to business customers that are open during the holiday."

And for customers depositing mail on Tuesday, Crooks advises they drop off their mail no later than 3 p.m. in order to get it processed sooner.

"On your way to work or school is the best time to drop the mail at the post office or blue collection box," Crooks said. "The earlier in the day we receive the mail, the sooner we can send it on its way."

The post office will reopen Tuesday, Feb. 19, with full mail delivery and retail service.
