The Malibu Post Office, closed yesterday and again today because of wild fires, is scheduled to open Wednesday and mail delivery will resume.

While the office is not open to the public today, postal clerks using natural lighting are working behind the scenes processing mail for delivery on Wednesday. District Manager William Almaraz said that generators are being installed today to support the electrical needs of the approximate 5,000 square-foot building. Many structures in the area do not have electrical power because of the fires.

The California Highway Patrol permitted Postal vehicles to deliver mail to the Malibu office today, and by noon, mail from the Los Angeles Processing & Distribution Center was being delivered to the Colony Annex at 23648 Pacific Coast Hwy.

Most Malibu Postal employees reported for duty today to nearby post offices including Manhattan Beach, Santa Monica, Redondo Beach and Inglewood.

Letter carriers will be called back to the Malibu Post Office tomorrow to begin delivering about 60% of the city’s mail. Pacific Coast Highway between Los Flores Canyon and Webb Way is not accessible and will not receive mail delivery. Residents who live in this area may pick up their mail at the Post Office during regular business hours. Proper identification, such as a California Drivers license or state-issued identification card, will be required.

None of the 23 routes served by the Malibu Post Office, which affects approximately 7,700 customers, is being delivered today. Twenty-five collection boxes in Malibu are also affected.
