When dropping off tax forms on April 15, the Atlanta District Manager Sal Vacca recommends visiting post offices early in the day to avoid long lines. In addition, Vacca recommends giving returns to outside collection employees (where available), using Self Service Ship and Mail Centers for stamp purchases and double checking returns for the proper address and correct postage.
Customers should also note that all mail weighing 13 ounces or more must be presented at the retail counter.
