Post Office gears up for "Tax Day"

Post offices around the country this weekend are gearing up for last minute tax filers. Many will be offering extended hours and additional staffing on Monday.

San Francisco District Manager Winnie Groux spoke of steps being taken in her district to prepare for this weekend in the USPS Link.

“We know that the days leading up to Tax Day, April 17 this year, are traditionally hectic. It’s our second busiest time of the year, so we’ll have district employees directing foot traffic in our lobbies much the same way they did during the Christmas holiday,” said Groux.

“And we’re making sure our vending machines and Automated Postal Centers are ready so we can capture every revenue penny our customers want to spend.”
