A representative with USPS says the agency plans to temporarily relocate workers from other post offices to Vashon in hopes that it will help alleviate some issues.
KIRO 7 News StaffVASHON, Wash. — Mail woes continue on Vashon Island, where some residents say they wait weeks or sometimes months for their mail to be delivered.
“It’s insane. We’re living in a third-world country all of a sudden,” said Garrison. “I had insurance documents mailed to me that didn’t come for two and a half months. I don’t know where they were. Whether they were sitting in that post office or sitting in some post office in Seattle."Some are still waiting on Christmas presents.
Residents alerted KIRO 7 to pallets of mail stored outdoors behind the post office, where they’re exposed to the elements.
