Please try to send your mail out early in the week if possible and avoid waiting until Friday. A large volume of outgoing mail on Friday may result in some mail not going out until the following Monday. Also, Bulk Mail arriving at the Bemidji Post Office after 3 p.m. Friday will not go out until the next business day, which would be Monday. See out going mail schedule.
