General Administration
Office
The Consolidated Messenger front office and lobby is located at the front of the building
and serves as the main entrance for our office employees and our customers.

The front office space consists of a counter with three stations, each with phones and
computer terminals with high-speed connections. The lobby provides a package
preparation area and bins of retail items* for customers, and a bank of mailboxes.
Empty the waste receptacles in the package preparation area every night or more often
as needed to ensure a neat appearance. Check and restock the retail bins throughout
the day as needed.†

The office hours are from 8:00 A.M. to 9:00 P.M., Monday through Saturday. Customers
who rent mailboxes have access to them 24 hours a day.

Warehouse
The rear of the building contains the warehouse, which occupies the major portion of
the building space. The warehouse is divided into four separate areas: Receiving,
Shipping, Packaging, and Inventory storage:
