TUCSON – Employees of the Tucson Main Post Office at 1501 South Cherrybell Stravenue will collect tax returns until midnight on Tuesday, April 15, to assist last-minute tax filers. Full Retail services will be available at the Main Post Office until 8 p.m.

Postal employees will be in front of the Main Post Office in the center turn lane on Cherrybell Stravenue to accept late-night tax returns from customers who have the proper postage already affixed and want drive-through convenience.
