Mail delivery disrupted in Montana town due to structural concerns at post office

BAKER – A mobile unit has been brought into the small eastern Montana community of Baker to help mail service resume after the local post office was suddenly closed.

City officials said in recent social media posts that the Baker Post Office was closed Tuesday afternoon following a recent inspection of the building. USPS officials said “structural issues” were found in the building that was built in 1961.

Initially, city officials were told that a short-term solution to continue mail service was to move delivery to Ekalaka until a local solution is arranged. City officials said Wednesday evening that postal officials planned to bring a mobile mail unit to the city, and that unit was delivered on Thursday.
