With the holiday mailing season officially underway, the Nashville Post Master, Barri Betz encourages customers to mail early and often by using postal blue collection boxes located within the area and at the Post Office. There is an increase in the amount of mail entering the mail system this time of year, said Postmaster Betz. This will continue as the holiday season gets closer. “To better serve customers, the Nashville Post Office has developed a holiday plan ensuring quick and efficient processing of their mail that will help reduce potential delays,” said Betz. “But we need help. We’re asking all of our business customers to drop their mail earlier in the day at our postal facility. We’ve created special transportation pickups to respond to the demand. The sooner they drop their mail, the sooner it will be picked up, transported and processed at the plant.” Postal blue collection boxes are safe, secure and scanned each time they are picked up to ensure timely collection and more efficient processing of cards and letters.
