'I'm frustrated' Oak Ridge residents say mail delivery is a mess
People in Oak Ridge said their mail was delayed up to a week, causing concern over bills and important documents.
“I’m frustrated,” Robert Sexton said. “Just makes ya feel insecure.”
Sexton said he received a package on Friday but no letters or bills for a week. He called the United States Postal Service to get help.
“He said the post office was delivering packages because they felt they were more important. I said what about the bills and stuff like that? He said that they were only focusing on delivering packages right now,” Sexton said.

Even before dejoy removed 5 high speed sorting machines.
I live in Oak Ridge and went to PO this am to find out why no mail since Saturday. Was told because of the Amazon/USPS contract, Amazon pkgs have priority over 1st Class mail. Apparently if USPS is not able to deliver within time frame negotiated, delivery is free to Amazon. So it becomes more important than 1st Class. All mail is supposed to be delivered today. (🤞
. USPS is holding a job fair soon so that should help. My friend said she missed 4 days of mail delivery because her carrier had jury duty. What is wrong with this whole situation????????
