LAKEPORT >> Lakeport residents on streets affected by flooding have had limited or no access to mail over the past two weeks. The Post Office is holding mail for all Lakeport area properties that are inaccessible due to the flood conditions.
Lakeport Post Office is at 1151 Eleventh Street. They’re open 9 am to 4:30 pm, Monday-Friday. Call 263-5837 for more information.
Garbage and recyling collection has also been interrupted in these areas. Lakeport Disposal Co. requests that residential customers bring their trash and recycling toters to the nearest high ground or dry area on their regular pick-up date where Lakeport Disposal Co. will pick them up.
If that is not an option due to the high water, residential customers may use their green yard waste container for regular trash until the flood water recedes and regular service can resume. Customers in flooded areas will not be charged extra for using their green yard waste containers for regular trash.
Call Lakeport Disposal at 263-6080 if you have questions or need assistance.
