About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed an unusual sign taped to the door of Huntsville East Canada Post: ‘Today is not Monday.’ Curious locals started dropping by just to hear what the day’s message would be next. Soon enough, everyone in town knew about it and began checking daily for the new messages. One Thursday, the note read: 'Today is definitely NOT Friday!' A regular stopped by and asked the mail clerk, smiling, 'What if today IS Friday?' The clerk shrugged and replied, 'Then tomorrow we'll find out!'
2. A few weeks ago, a delivery driver pulled up to the Huntsville East Canada Post one afternoon with a package in hand. As he approached the counter, he noticed something odd: a small, neatly folded note attached to the mail slot. The note read: 'Dear staff, could you please hold my package for an hour? I’ll be right back.' The delivery driver looked around and saw only a regular customer waiting patiently. Turns out, it was actually the postmaster’s cat, who had knocked over the note while playing.
3. A little girl walked into the Huntsville East Canada Post one day, her eyes wide with wonder as she pointed at the large metal mailbox outside. ‘Mommy,’ she asked, ‘why does it say “Canada” on our mailboxes here in Alabama?’ The mother smiled and explained gently, ‘Honey, that’s because Alabama is part of the United States, and they share a postal agreement with Canada.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then looked up again, ‘So if I send a letter to my friend in Alaska, will it go through here first?’ A nearby delivery driver chuckled and replied, ‘No sweetie, it’ll go straight to Alaska!’ Everyone laughed, and the child skipped out happily, already planning her next adventure.
4. A delivery driver parked his truck outside the Huntsville East Canada Post one afternoon and noticed something peculiar on the mailboxes. Curious, he leaned in closer and saw that each mailbox had been meticulously decorated with tiny flags and little notes addressed to ‘Santa Claus’—it turned out a regular was organizing an annual Christmas surprise for Santa’s postal helpers.
