We are sad to hear that the Constantia Post Office will be closing permanently as of Saturday 5th June. Your nearest post office will now be Plumstead, we have listed the opening hours for this branch in the images below.
What will be next ......
Our nephew sent us a letter and card from the UK in October and it arrived 2 weeks ago! No wonder they are closing!!!!
Soon it won't matter: the whole country will close down.
The smart decision makers will move the boxes to Sea Point
So wonderful at such short notice. Where will the l Mail from the boxes be found and the want to deliver small kg packages ha ha
What happens to the P O Boxes in Constantia
Good question ?
Does anyone know where the PO Boxes have moved to now? I phoned Plumstead branch, but they don't know.
