While it is not quite the same as a full-service post office, I am pleased to announce the completion of stage one of a positive outcome to retain essential postal services for our community. 

Parcel lockers have now been installed in Acland Court, just outside the Coles entrance and are ready for use. These are a fantastic alternative to a PO Box, with the option to send and receive items using this facility. 

Full details regarding parcel locker use for sending and receiving can be found through the links below or on the AU Post Website.

I want to thank the ongoing support of Josh Burns MP, Councillor Serge Thomman, Kate Foley, and her team from AU Post,  the Management and Residents of Acland Court as well as the St Kilda Community for reaching this outcome.

More initiatives and discussions are underway regarding additional services for St Kilda, and I will work to keep you informed as they are confirmed.
