Star Valley Ranch braces for USPS delivery change that shifts sorting to Town Hall
Town officials said the USPS has classified Star Valley Ranch as a "drop location," meaning contracted carriers would deliver mail and packages to a town mail center rather than sorting into resident boxes; the town is preparing space and weighing budget options for continued resident distribution.
The full story
Town Administrator Aitken told the Star Valley Ranch Town Council that the United States Postal Service has verbally reclassified the town as a "drop location," a change that would require the third-party carrier to deliver mail only to a central building rather than sort it into individual resident mailboxes.

The town currently receives roughly 310 to 510 USPS packages per day.
