Clarksville Post Office to Demonstrate Automated Postal Center at Open House

CLARKSVILLE, IN — The Clarksville Post Office, 757 E. Lewis & Clark Parkway, will hold an open house from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, March 26 to demonstrate the ease and convenience of the Automated Postal Center. The APC is a virtual stand-alone Post Office similar to a bank ATM that offers a quick, easy and convenient way to purchase stamps or mail packages without waiting in line at the Post Office. It expands access to postal services beyond traditional retail hours, says PostmasterDoug Caswell. “Customers can access the APC 24-hours a day — after traditional operating hours or during our busier periods of the day to avoid a wait. It’s a convenience we are happy to provide.”

Using credit or debit cards, APC customers can:

Buy self-adhesive stamps
Weigh, calculate, and purchase postage in any amount for items weighing up to 70 lbs.
Send items via Express Mail, Priority Mail, First-Class Mail and Parcel Post services
Look up ZIP Codes and obtain postal service mailing information
Purchase Delivery Confirmation service
