Westerner Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Banglamung Post Office opens at 9.00 on Saturdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allane Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Yes, I think Rick is in error on this. It is obviously risky to make a statement about "all Post Offices in Thailand", but I think that their Saturday hours are 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.

NanLaew Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 (edited) After seeing the huge lines at the Soi Post Office location the day before the Constitution Day holiday, I headed to Carrefour where "Mailboxes" beside the food court (beside the main entrance from the car park) sent my letter via EMS without me having to stand in line. Just an alternative to the hassle of parking and queueing at the main location? Edited December 15, 2008 by NanLaew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cali4995 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 The main branch on soi post office is open from 08:00-20:00 everyday. I know this is not consistent with other po's in Thailand but those are their hours. I used to send greeting cards to the states on a regular basis, "airmail" or 1st class was 42 baht, but if you exceed a certain weight it will be more. I sent a calendar to a friend with this same method and it was 290baht. I've used their EMS before but it's actually more expensive than fedex and usps is their partnership network back home. This last time I sent two cards and the calendar about NOV 15th and none of it ever arrived so, as you can imagine, i'm rather disgusted with them. i rather suspect anything with an address written in English gets aahh, extra scrutiny. sad to say but if you want it to arrive with some certainty you'll have to use one of the courier services, DHL,UPS or fedex. postal workers shouldn't steal mail.

fred110 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 There is a new Post Office on Sukhumvit across from the big floating market. Not sure of the hours but it is never crowded (so far), has a big parking lot, and mail boxes for rent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
