See the note below for a recommendation to replace your Gwynedd post office box. Thanks to Neil Daeubler for writing this up!

Carol: I don't know if this would be of interest to neighbors forced to change post offices due to the closure of the Gwynedd office on Meetinghouse, but an alternative to Springhouse is Gwynedd Valley (next to the train station). They have boxes available, their hours are quite convenient for both box access and window access, and although a new box number would be issued to transferees, the only other changes to an address would be Gwynedd Valley (instead of Gwynedd) and a zip code change to 19437. FedEx and UPS deliver there daily, so there is the option of delivery to your home or delivery to the post office (using the P.O. box number). Getting to/from Gwynedd Valley seems a bit quicker than Springhouse because there are no extra traffic lights or traffic to encounter.
We changed over a year ago when the Gwynedd office eliminated any weekend hours, which for working families made it impossible to get window service or even mail pick-up. We've been very please with the service at Gwynedd Valley and found the change very pain-free! Just an FYI... Andrea and Neil
