Operations Updates & Communication

From the Distribution Department:

The Distribution Department has been experiencing problems with packages being returned due to the ability of the postal system not being able to differentiate the “from” and “to” addresses on the labels. The post office is requiring that we separate the return (“from”) address from the receiving (“to”) address on the labels for packages. This requirement will start immediately. Please see pictures that show examples of the proper way to label the packages
