The Town of Renfrew is among the areas under a red delivery service alert for Canada Post today, April 8, due to inclement weather and snow.
Officials say a red service alert means Canada Post is suspending delivery for the day and not sending delivery agents out or recalling them. There will also be no regular collection.
Delivery will resume once conditions improve and it’s safe to do so.
Canada Post says the safety of employees is the number one priority.
“We encourage customers to clear the snow and ice from their walkways, stairs, and driveways, to ensure safe access to the front door for both their visitors, as well as their mail carriers, when service resumes,” reads a press release.
If customers have questions regarding mail delivery, they can contact Canada Post’s Customer Service team online at canadapost.ca/support or by telephone at 1-866-607-6301 (TTY: 1-800-267-2797).
