New Post Office now open in Apex

APEX, NC – To increase convenience and access to postal services, a new Contract Postal Unit with virtually all postal services is now open six days a week in Apex at Ace Hardware, 600 East Williams Street. The hours of the postal unit are Monday – Friday, 8 am - 7 pm and Saturdays 8 am – 6 pm. It is one of 15 CPUs in the Triangle Area, all serving as convenient alternatives to traditional Post Offices.

“This office will help to increase convenience and access to postal services for customers unable to travel to the Apex Post Office,” said Claudia James, Officer-in-Charge, Apex, who will oversee the CPU at Ace Hardware. “A full line of postal products and services are available at the new CPU including postage stamps, Express Mail® service, Priority Mail® service, special services, packaging products, and much more. We are very excited for the residents of Apex.”

The Postal Service has re-engineered the entire Contract Unit Postal program to better answer the needs of postal customers nationwide. “The Postal Service is continuously tasked with finding smarter and more efficient ways to reach our customers,” said James. “Our CPUs, our online services at www.usps.com, and our Automated Postal Centers at Post Offices throughout the city and state are allowing us to change the way we do business, to make us available to more people 24 hours a day.”
