Greensboro’s main post office is located on Murrow Blvd. just east of Elm Street. The long silver building is easily identifiable. While this location is considered our main post office, the 9-5 Monday-Friday hours aren’t any more generous than the branch offices. There is a Saturday collection at 2pm for the on-site mailboxes. The main post office has great parking. The US Postal system has an identifier for all of their post offices and you can find the webpage for the main post office here.
