INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) –The Postal Service is sealing off a few collection boxes in Indianapolis from now through Inauguration Day.
The Postal Service said this could cause service delays. They cited possible civil unrest as the reason for sealing off the boxes.
Hoosiers like Eric Hoogland are surprised to hear about the possibility of more USPS service delays. Although he hasn’t had any major issues with his mail yet, he is considering mailing his son’s birthday gift earlier now that he knows public unrest could delay it making it in time for his big day.
“Sad that it’s come to this. I hope things calm down soon so I’m not having to deal with the issue,” said Hoogland.
