Santa Monica Mailboxes & More at 3435 Ocean Park Blvd. #107 has agreed to honor the contracts of EarthInhabitant mailbox renters and give them an additional three months free mailbox service. EarthInhabitant, previously known as Service Max located at 410 Lincoln Blvd., closed its doors permanently in mid-September.
“This is a difficult situation and we are trying to make it as painless as possible,” said Alma Mills, owner of Santa Monica Mailboxes & More. “People need to their mail.”
To ensure the mail’s safety, articles of mail that remained at EarthInhabitant at the time of closure on Sept. 13 were taken to Santa Monica Mailboxes & More where they are now located. For more information, contact Mills at (310) 450-4479 or come to 3435 Ocean Park Blvd. #107.
The costs of doing business became too great and the owners of EarthInhabitant were forced to close. The owners were concerned about what to do with mailbox renters who were currently receiving mail. They contacted several local mailbox stores and sided with Santa Monica Mailboxes & More, finding that the prices and services best fit the needs of their customers.
Mail that has been sent to EarthInhabitant since the closure can be picked up at the U.S.P.S. Carrier Annex in Venice at 313 Grand Ave. near Winward. However, mail will only be held for a limited time only, so customers who had mailboxes at EarthInhabitant should go by to pick up their mail as soon as possible. The Carrier Annex is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and (310) 314-0093. A product of our environment
