Two Berkeley Post Offices On the Chopping Block

Post office locations in Cordesville and Russellville are among 3,700 sites that the United State Postal Service will consider shuttering.

The USPS announced the list Tuesday as part of a drive to identify areas where a brick-and-mortar post office could be replaced with kiosk locations in grocery stores or community centers.

"Our customer’s habits have made it clear that they no longer require a physical post office to conduct most of their postal business," said Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe in a statement.

The list of threatened sites includes 28 from South Carolina, and only five east of Interstate 95.

The closest physical branch to Cordesville is Moncks Corner, while Russellville patrons would have a much shorter drive to St. Stephen.
