(KNZA)--The retail lobby of the Hiawatha Post Office remains closed for extensive repairs following a structural failure Thursday. -

Major damage occurred when a portion of the ceiling collapsed.

In a social media post Sunday, the Post Office provided this update:

Due to the safety of our employees & extensive repairs, the Hiawatha Post Office Retail Lobby will remain closed until the tentative date of Tuesday, September 5th.

If you are needing to purchase stamps or have any shipping needs please utilize another Post Office in the area. Robinson, Powhattan, Horton, Fairview, or Sabetha are the closest and would be happy to help you with all your needs.

The collection box inside & outside the post office can still be used and our carriers are able to pick up any outgoing mail that already has postage affixed. The po box mail and mail delivery will not be affected by this closure.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you and your patience and understanding would be very much appreciated!
