15 NE Ohio Post Offices Could Be Consolidated

20 Billion Less Pieces Of Mail Sent This Year

UPDATED: 5:13 pm EST November 20, 2009

The U.S. Postal Service Fridday updated the list of retail stations and branches that remain under review for possible consolidation.

The Postal Service reported a loss of $3.8 billion at the end of its 2009 fiscal year in October.

The losses are the result of dramatic mail volume declines caused by the economic downturn, but also because of online bill paying and electronic correspondence.

To improve efficiencies, the Postal Service has offered early retirements, adjusted delivery routes, adjusted Post Office hours, reduced hours of operation in mail processing facilities, suspended new post office construction, consolidated mail processing operations, removed underused blue collection boxes, cut travel budgets and reduced administrative staffing by 15 percent.

Some branch offices locally could be consolidated with other offices.

The following offices will be reviewed:
  • Akron Chapel Hill 2000 Brittain Rd 44310
  • Akron Downtown Station 209 S Main 44308
  • Akron East Akron 1763 Goodyear Blvd 44305
  • Akron Maple Valley 1518 Copley Rd 44320
  • Canton Deuber 220 Dueber SW 44706
  • Cleveland Amc Finance Unit 5801 Postal Rd 44181
  • Brook Park Cleveland Brookpark 14770 Snow Rd 44142
  • Lakewood Cleveland Edgewater 1380 West 117th Street 44107
  • Cleveland Huntington Finance 925 Euclid Ave Ste 66 44115
  • Cleveland Kamms 3762 Rocky River 44111
  • Maple Hts Cleveland Maple Heights 16300 Broadway 44137
  • Euclid Cleveland Shore Finance 22751 Shore Center Drive 44123
  • Mansfield Lincoln Retail 989 Ashland Rd 44905
  • Youngstown Eastside Station 733 N Garland 44506
  • Youngstown Southside Station 104 Hylda St 44507

"No determination has been made to close any stations or branch office," said Cleveland Postmaster Spencer Hsu, "But we have an obligation to pursue strategies and solutions that will mitigate the impact of the economy and electronic diversion."
