SURREY (NEWS1130) – People in Surrey and Langley whose mailboxes have been damaged by theft can now pick up their mail outside regular depot hours.
The move comes after many mailboxes in those communities were left unusable
Anick Losier with Canada Post says they are working hard to replace and re-enforce the compromised mailboxes.
“It’s been a challenge for us, we’ll admit to that but our crews and our workers are working as quickly as we can to ensure that boxes are fixed and mail is secured”
Losier can’t tell us how many mailboxes have been compromised, but stressed the new hours will be in effect until regular mail service resumes.
Canada Post depot hours usually run between 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., but they will now be open in Surrey until 6 p.m. and Langley until 5 p.m.
