Clear the snow and ice for your neighbors and your letter carrier

MANCHESTER NH— It’s hard to stay ahead of bad weather. The snow and ice always seem to know when we have plans, special things we need to do or when we just want to stay inside where it’s warm and toasty.

No matter when bad weather comes, it’s important to act. We each owe it to our families, our neighbors, and our letter carriers to make sure our property is safe and accessible.

Make sure to keep pathways and stairs clear of ice and snow, as well as all walkways and the approach to your mailbox. This will prevent injuries and allow postal employees to provide the best possible service, even in the worst weather.

The Postal Service™ delivers to more than 142 million homes, businesses, and Post Office™ Boxes six days a week. To Mountains. Valleys. And lower still – to the bottom of the Grand Canyon by mule train. Even door-to-door in the Everglades, by boat. And in doing so, letter carriers encounter every kind of bad weather our nation knows.

With your help, the Postal Service can provide you with uninterrupted service and fulfill the famous phrase:

“Neither rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.”

New Hampshire / Vermont District Manager for the U.S. Postal Service, Jim Adams said, “Your assistance will allow a safe and timely delivery of your mail. As always, thank you for your support.”
