Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night can keep these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.
What began back in the summer of 1775 has continued through every season since. Our US Postal Service has worked for decades through all obstacles to keep us linked to each other. Even from the furthest corners of our country and the world.
Since 2002, Sip and Ship has partnered with USPS through our various sending and receiving services. Think of us as your own personal liaison - we are proud to champion our dedicated and hardworking postal workers by helping you with your mail. Our virtual mailbox service even allows you to check your mail from your own safe social distance.
PS -- The next time you’re in, remember to buy a book or two of forever stamps to help support our amazing team of postal workers - because who doesn't love receiving letters!?
We look forward to seeing you soon!
