Redrawing the Map: A Look at USPS’ Network Rationalization Plan: he USPS’s Network Rationalization Plan, opposed by some postal unions and not-in-my-district Congress members, would cut the number of processing centers nearly in half by 2015—from 461 this year to 232 in 2015. That’s down from 673 in 2006 and 599 in 2009.
The impact would be especially dramatic in certain regions. Several states—including Mississippi, Kansas, and Arizona—would go from having six or more facilities to only one.
