Need to pick up your mail on-hold from vacation? An over-sized package? Certified, returned-receipt letter? Don't go to the existing post office for these parcel pick-ups; it's a wasted trip. GO TO: 7241 185th Ave NE, Redmond, WA. This address is to the US Post's large E. King County Delivery Distribution Center. (See map). PHONE: 425-885-0207. I highly recommend you call first to locate your mail i.e. carrier delivery and pick-up status.
In case you didn't find the US Postal Service card in the mail, the Redmond carriers (and Parcel Pickup) have moved from the old post office to this distribution center building. The center is is not very far east of Home Depot. Pick-up hours are worse: M-F, 9:00AM-4:00PM and Saturday, 9:00AM-3:00PM. TIP: to avoid the center's 10 speed bumps (!) leave via the southern-most entrance off of 180th Ave. NE. -- especially if you have a small car.
You can still drop off your mail, get stamps and pick up your mail-box mail at the old post office. But, this, too, will change when the Postal Service sells the post office on 85th and moves to the old liquor store location. A worker said, "the government needs the money so is shutting down offices across the country and is also trying to lay off the older workers. They just closed a huge center in Spokane."
