Three weeks ago I went to the Brewery Street PO to complain about this issue. I was told that Darryl Troxler (203-782-7011) was in charge of that matter, that he would put in a work order, and that the collection box would be back in place by the end of November. Of course, it is not. I have left phone messages for him 3X but he has not returned any of my calls. I went on-line to USPS.com and filed a Customer Service complaint but that has yet to get any response.

First they removed all the collection boxes in this neighborhood except for two, this one and one at Sherman and Chapel. Now another one is gone. They told me to simply leave my outgoing mail on my own mailbox for pick-up by postal workers but [a] they don't always take it, and [b] once someone stole my bill payment off my front porch and used my checking account number to pay for their cable bill and then shared it with other people. Luckily the bank refunded my money but I had to close that account. So I don't do that anymore and need a secure collection box for my out-going mail.

I know this is their busiest time of year, but when they arranged to have it removed for construction in October they should have arranged to have it restored.
