Missouri man’s packages at standstill, collecting dust at USPS facility due to postal service delays

HAZELWOOD, Mo. (KMOV.com) — A Washington, Missouri man says he’s been waiting for weeks for items he sent to be delivered.  News 4 found the packages collecting dust at a United States Postal Service facility in Hazelwood.

With so many people voting by mail, there’s plenty of people with anxiety about their ballots getting lost in the mix.

Louis Calzada says his delivery is at a standstill regarding packages he sent through USPS.

“What’s the snag, is it a COVID issue?,” said Calzada.

He’s a vintage record dealer, selling them through eBay for the last 20 years out of his Washington, Missouri home.

“I’ve probably sold four to five thousand,” he said.

He says during that time he’s rarely had any issues with shipping, until now. More at KMOV

  1. Hi Sharon. Same situation in that I mailed 2 letters November 5 th from our local post office, that also have to go through Hazelwood, MO that still haven’t been received by the recipient! Thought it was a local post office issue, however, it apparently is the hub.

  2. I mailed 2 very important letters over 2 weeks ago. must go through Hazelwood, MO though from our Southern Illinois home. That is more than crazy! The recipients of my 2 mailings still have not received the important documents. USPS sucks. Government should shut them down. snail Mail is more than correct with USPS. I will fax, use UPS, FEDEX, HAND DELUVER WHERE I CAN and utilize any other entity I can before using USPS. Cannot depend on them. Our own mail delivery man takes photos while he delivers daily mail. Some days we never receive our mail because he’d rather be a photographer.
