Australia Post opens second Community Hub @ Post retail concept

A newly refurbished and contemporary retail space has opened in Burnie, Tasmania, that will offer Australia Post customers a convenient place to access postal services as well as buy products from local small businesses.

The Community Hub @ Post offers customers the full range of existing services, including free 24/7 parcel lockers for out-of-hours deliveries and greater convenience, banking services through Bank@Post, and all parcel and letter mailing services.

According to Australia Post’s executive general manager – retail, brand and marketing, Josh Bannister, the new location demonstrates the post’s dedication to regional Australia.

“Our newest Community Hub @ Post in Burnie is focused on bringing together essential services for our customers, while supporting the continued growth in e-commerce and our parcel business,” he said.

“The team want to create a welcoming space that meets the diverse needs of the Burnie community, and this refreshed format provides that, while continuing to offer all the essential services customers expect from their local Post Office.

“We’re working hard to modernize our Post Office network and Burnie is the perfect location for the launch of our second Community Hub @ Post. This initiative underscores our commitment to regional Australia, ensuring that communities like Burnie have access to the same level of service and innovation as metropolitan areas.”

Burnie Post Office is the second Community Hub @ Post to open and the first in Tasmania. In the coming months, Australia Post will also open Community Hub locations in Williamstown, Victoria,and and Noosa Heads, Queensland. The first Community Hub @ Post was opened in Orange, New South Wales last October.
