Hadley used to have an excellent USPS contractor, but she was taken from us and reassigned. The replacement contractor is responsible for mail in two Villages, so to say he's rushed is an understatement, and outgoing mail is ignored because of his haste to get all mail distributed. I have tracking on all parcels, and sometimes drop box mail doesn't make it to the Lady Lake Post Office for two days even though the contractor may be headed back to Lady Lake USPS later in the day. This creates hardship for anyone who has an obligation to get mail out by a certain date and confirmed by a USPS scan. This probably isn't a common problem for most here in The Villages, but it is still a USPS issue. It's not just the new sections having issues with mail.

I'm in Virginia Trace and the Post Office has divided the Village into two zip-plus routes. The problem is that they do not come to the mail station at the same time. One arrives around Noon and the other arives around 5PM. Can you guess which one serves my area? I find it best to pick up mail at 9 AM the next day. New slogan for the Post Office - Yesterday's mail today!

It's delivered on the correct day you choose to wait till the next day to pick it up

If you get your mail at a mail station you're dealing with a contractor, not USPS.
