Officials for the United States Postal Service gave an update Wednesday on recovery efforts following hurricanes Helene and Milton, saying that restoring full service in affected areas may take “some time.”
In a media briefing Wednesday, Steven Monteith, Postal Service chief customer and marketing officer, said 4,600 addresses in North Carolina and 600 addresses in Florida were still inaccessible.
“Where retail and delivery units remain inaccessible, operations have been relocated to nearby units and have deployed mobile retail units to make sure we can provide retail and delivery services to affected communities as quickly as possible,” the Postal Service said in a press release after the briefing.
