In the wake of the recent snowstorm, the Postal Service is asking customers to clear walkways and areas around mailboxes to make it easier for carriers to deliver mail.

According to a Thursday press release, winter storms and cold, snow and icy conditions can make delivery of mail very challenging for letter carriers. Postal residential and business customers are asked to clear your mailbox area of snow, sleet, slush, ice and debris, including clearing nearby sidewalks, steps and porches.

Postal service officials said they will do their best to make delivery to all addresses.  They are asking that customers take caution as they clear a path for their letter carrier. Letter carriers are being instructed to not deliver to mailboxes and locations which are too hazardous or unsafe to access.

Whether you have a street-side, centralized neighborhood/cluster unit, house, or door mailbox, postal letter carriers need to have clear and safe access to deliver your mail.
