APEC to close Waikiki Post Office Saturday

People who pick up their mail from the Waikiki Post Office won’t be able to do so this Saturday due to security zones being imposed for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, when prominent world leaders will be on Oahu.

The post office will be closed from 6 p.m. Friday through 8 a.m. Sunday. There will be no access to post office boxes on Saturday, the U.S. Postal Service said in a news release. Access to mail on Friday will only be from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The location’s retail lobby will be closed due to Veterans’ Day.

To make up for the closure, the Waikiki Post Office will make special arrangements to deliver mail to its PO Boxes this Friday, Veterans’ Day. Mail usually isn’t delivered on federal holidays. 

There will be no mail pickup from blue USPS collection boxes or mail drops at the Waikiki Post Office, from the Hilton Hawaiian Village’s front desk and Contract Postal Unit, or from the collection box at 1741 Ala Moana Blvd., between each location’s last collection time on Thursday and 7 a.m. Monday. 

Delivery times on Saturday may be impacted by road closures and other traffic issues related to APEC.
