New Postmaster and Location Announced for Boyle Post Office
The Boyle post office will relocate early next year to a new site within the town. Paul Kelly Jnr from Kelly’s Supervalu Boyle has accepted the offer to manage the post office, confirmed by an An Post spokesperson.
The post office is moving from its current address on Shop Street to a vacant retail space inside Kelly’s Supervalu Shopping Centre on Elphin Street, approximately 450 meters away. The new location is scheduled to open on February 3rd.
Last year, An Post hired Cushman Wakefield auctioneers to sell 14 town centre post office properties, including the Boyle building, listed with an asking price of €130,000. Sale conditions stipulated that the post office would continue operating in the area.
“Yes when we placed the former post office on the market we were doing so on the basis that it would remain as a post office. However, one could never rule out the new contractor giving up their contract, as happened here, not that new applicants would favour a new location," said the An Post spokesperson.
“That’s what happened here and we have been lucky in coming up with an ideal new location and the chance to provide a new modern facility for the people of Boyle."
This move aims to provide a modern and convenient postal service to the local community.
