We live down by the prison and have to drive to Fruitland for packages and signed mail. Wildwood is not our post office. It is ok now, but picking up medical supplies in 10 years will be a pain. The PO has been made less convenient over the years. One of those moves to squeeze the life out of public services and replace them with for profit businesses. I don’t think usps is a priority in FL

There is one on 470, out the Villages gate from Meggison, right about a mile and a half.

The post office in Wildwood is very small and frequently has lines out the door. Around Christmans it is ridiculous. But with the spending cutbacks any improvements or relocation is highly unlikely.

All eBay shipments has to be through USPS.

On the plus side, business is booming at the UPS store in Pinellas Plaza.

No but there are postal stores at both Colony and Pinellas that are cart accessable who can do everything the post office can do and much more.

So many alternatives now.

USPS is not critical any more.

Cut mail delivery to twice per week per household, six days per week, cut staff in half.

:ho:

No sure where you are in TV but my advise is just to Google USPS locations. Pretty sure you will find one near. Maybe not exactly inside TV but close enough.

There are multiple full USPS facilities in The Villages, but maybe none close to your location?

Just pull down the filter selection list

Only one of those shown, the office on Lagrande Blvd, is even close to being in the Villages and even that one may be just outside. It does look like it might be accessible by golf cart.

With everything going electronically the PO is going the way of the phone booth. I doubt you will ever see a PO in the Villages and we will be lucky to keep those that are around us now.

Oxford and Wildwood on the west, LadyLake (x2) and Fruitland Park on the east, Summerfield to the north, and Leesburg to the South, not to mention Bushnell to the south west. Enjoy them while you can, before they’re privatized and sold off

Up here in Massachusetts the smaller post office locations with only 1 or 2 employees all close for lunch. But they are kind enough to close from 11-12 so that they are open during most workers regular lunch hours.

Thank You
 

Thank you everyone for all your responses to a myriad of answers. It looks like we will continue to go to the Wildwood PO for now. We can buy our stamps at Publix. Life is good in the Villages, you can’t have everything for sure:)

As reported on BBC, Denmark is shutting down their PostNord post offices and all letter delivery as of the end of this year. As someone else posted, post offices are going the way of pay telephones. It's no longer a service people need.

Denmark'''s postal service to stop delivering letters

I clear out our mailbox twice a week, just to keep it from being crammed too full with ads, and rarely find anything that matters to me. I could do without.

Both a post office and UPS store are golf cart accessible near Spanish Springs.

Lesseburg main postal office on 441 south of 44 is convenient for south end.Lady Lake on 25 northern.
