Post offices are opening earlier each Friday morning during the present Covid-19 lockdown in an effort to accommodate users to get their business done, without long queues.

While post men/woman across the region are continuing to look out for customers on their routes who have been impacted by the restrictions. 

Customers who, for whatever reason, are unable to attend the post office personally to collect their pension/ social welfare payment can nominate a ‘Temporary Agent’ to act on their behalf. 

Communications Officer with An Post Angus Laverty told Midwest News that newspapers can be delivered by the company among other additional services.
