Counters open half a day in double-shift branches, every other day until the end of the month in single-shift offices
IVREA
The reduced service for August is also available in the Canavese post offices. A limitation that concerns both the double shift branches – the main ones normally open in the morning and afternoon – and the smaller branches where you can already access only in the morning.
Therefore, pay attention to the time that is calculated to have available, as Strambino showed just yesterday morning, Tuesday, the first day after the entry into force of the summer timetable, because it will be very likely to be in the queue. Unless you follow the advice of the Italian Post Office and use digital channels that allow you to make transactions remotely or from withdrawal points (the Atm Poste).
But in this case, those unfamiliar with the tools are left out. Let’s start with the double shift post offices with the highest user traffic: Ivrea-piazza Freguglia, Cuorgnè, Rivarolo they will open only in the morning (from 8.20 to 13.35) respectively from 13 to 20 August, from 9 to 14 August, from 16 to 20 August. Those already in single shift come Caluso e Castellamonte throughout the month of August they will open 4 days out of six, so Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday. Only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays the office of Favria is that of Ivrea 1 (Canton Maridon, but only until August 15); for Ivrea 2 (via Dora Baltea), Ivrea-San Bernardo, Mazzè half-day openings limited to Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays throughout the month.
All month as a Tonengo di Mazzè, where the counters will be accessible only on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays. Strambinoinstead, until September it will have to do without the openings on Monday and Friday (service to the public throughout the month only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays) and for Valchiusella, the post office of Alice Superior it will always work until the end of the month only three days a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday).
Poste suggests alternative options to limit inconvenience: “The Postamat ATMs located in Cuorgnè, Rivarolo, Caluso, Castellamonte, Favria, Strambino, Alice Superiore and 4 in Ivrea, can be used to pay pre-marked current account bills, for telephone top-ups and Postepay cards ».
The Post Office App, on the other hand, “allows you to locate nearby post offices thanks to the interactive map, check their opening hours and the availability of free wi-fi, pay bills, send registered mail, letters and telegrams, monitor the status of a tracked shipment, search for nearby Postamats for automatic cash withdrawal. It is also possible to book your shift at the counter and obtain a digital ticket to show to the reader once you arrive at the office.
It is also possible to book access to the counters via Whatsapp on 3715003715 ». Finally, with Poste delivery web, “parcels up to 30 kg and 220 centimeters can be sent from home, with a delivery scheduled in Italy from 1 to 3 working days after the shipment with the fast service, and within 4 working days with standard shipping “.
