Helpful mailing hints

While most people send fairly typical items through the mail, that isn’t necessarily all that has been received on Kwajalein. Postmaster Karla Long said the strangest thing that’s come through since she’s worked in the post office was a boat anchor. The anchor wasn’t in a box, but had tape wrapped around it to hold the chain in place. The ‘to and from’ addresses were written on the tape. Did you know? · You can’t ship coconuts, aerosol cans, firearms or flammables. · Can’t ship any coral or giant clam shells, even fragments, unless they’ve been purchased from a store. If you pick them up on the beach you can mail them, but you need to be cautious. You could get a nasty letter or a fine from Customs. When you are gone for more than five days you must put a hold on your mail. · You can’t receive personal mail at a company mail box. It must say Such and Such company and then Attn: your name. It can’t read to your name at Such and Such company. · You must have your K-badge to pick up your boxes. · If you’re shipping a box make sure it is packed completely full. Use some kind of stuffing material if you need because if it isn’t completely full it will probably get squished. For more information on the post office, call Long at 53461.
