INDIANAPOLIS — The U.S. Postal Service is asking customers to help letter carriers deliver mail safely by clearing snow and ice from sidewalks, stairs and mailboxes.  

“Snow and ice make delivery dangerous and slow,” said Greater Indiana District Manager Todd Hawkins.  “Maintaining a clear path to the mail box ... will help letter carriers maintain consistent delivery service, and help them get the mail delivered.”

Customers receiving door delivery should make sure their sidewalks, steps and porches are clear. Customers receiving curbside delivery should remove snow piles left by snow plows to keep access to their mailboxes clear for letter carriers.

Residents and businesses with blue collection boxes near their property are asked to keep them clear of snow and ice.
