[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3040460, member: 58386"] They seem glad to take all the RD boxes X and UPS will give them. RD work is money losing business but if you're going to be a nationwide carrier you've got to service all zips. In fact the entire zip code format was created by the post office. However in the rural area where I live they have closed numerous little one man PO's set up lock box stands filled up by the RD carrier coming out from a larger neighboring PO. High mileage low volume depressed rural areas with diminishing population will always be a thorn in the side of every nationwide carrier and the way it looks now the USPS will continue to be the carrier of the last resort with X & UPS continuing to dump as much RD junk off onto it as it can handle.
