My answer to this was every other day on week days. Mon, Weds, Fri. Even with that I could probably do with only 1 day a week getting mail since I actually get something I want in the mail once every other week or so.

That works. Gives people who work M-F a chance to get to the post office. Anything more is just unnecessary.

Every other day, skipping holidays...

Don't forget about businesses and shipping parcels and such. It can't be less than every other day. It wouldn't work like that.

They want it. They don't need it daily unless they're in the stone age, and if they're in the stone age and relying on a socialist organization to perform well then they deserve to collapse.

No reduction in service can be tolerated if it's a "fix" for the republican poison pill in 2006. I'm not saying that the service can't become cheaper or more efficient to respond to its market, but ANY step toward fixing their artificial money woes other than removing the artificial pension funding requirement is precedent to accepting that legislative bitch slap.

If a business is shipping crap snail mail it doesnt need to be there but 3 days a week. Anything thats important even slightly for us gets overnighted where I work and we pay for that.

This is only for crap thats snail mailed on a regular delievery schedule. Anything thats overnighted you are paying for.

I'm fine with once a week or even once a month.

If you have a business and you need to mail crap more often than that, use UPS or FedEx.

Losing all those jobs will hurt, but we didn't keep paying a bunch of telegraph operators and telegram delivery people after the telephone was invented.

Well when he said mail service I assumed he was referring only to delivery. If we're talking about delivery AND when the post office itself is open, that would change my answer.

They dont even deliver here so I have to rent a PO box and go pick up my mail.

As far as I am concerned it could be only 2-3 times a week.

I think most places could shut down the local post office without it affecting being able to mail things out at all. In our town, the local grocery store not only sells stamps, but they have a section where you can bring in your recycled bottles/cans (they do the refund thing here), drop off your dry cleaning, and mail anything USPS. There is always a person there except during the wee hours of the night, so it's MUCH more flexible than post office hours. I was going to have to wait till Saturday to mail a package because of Post Office hours, then I remembered I could do it at the grocery store- went in at 7 am and mailed it, easy as pie.

That would save a ton of money imo. The separate offices bleed money and are redundant, imo. Have someone come pick up the mail drop-offs at the various locations and take it to the sorting/distribution center. Have people deliver mail 3x a week to everyone unless they pay extra for overnighting. Seems like it'd work to me.
