I am not aware any such effort has been undertaken in Plainfield.
Though the Postal Service may hope this is a done deal, that may not be the case as residents have until the day after Christmas to file written comments.
- Plainfield Today: "Postal closings will hit Plainfield hard"
- Plainfield Today: "Details emerge on plans to close Muhlenberg, Netherwood stations"

Its amazing that business changes everyday but government stays the same. There is less mail due to email and paying and buying online but we cry if we lose a litter convenience.
Closing the offices will have no effect. Maybe the mail will be delivered to the right house and not all around the neighborhood. UPS seens to always get it to the right house.
Dan, there are forms available at the post office that residents can fill out about their use of the post office and how important the Muhlenberg Office is to them. I thought this was known to all. Save Muhlenberg Station Post Office!
I think it is the time that government think how important is the post offices to the people. Then its time to imagine the world without mail and post offices.
