- AAAnnieAug 29, 20251.0Came here on a Friday at 2:45 (supposed to close at 4) and it’s not open.
- JLJeanna LeistadAug 12, 20251.0I used to love going to this post office because there were never any lines. Now, I can't tell you the last time I actually went inside because it's never open during their posted hours. lights are on, but no one is there and the doors are locked. I inquired about it at the PO on Lawrence today (8/12/25) and was told that the clerk there transferred to another PO and the new clerk starts on Monday. I'm not sure I believe it, but only time will tell.
