The Leggett Post Office in Mendocino County reopened on June 15, 2026, more than two years after a fire destroyed the original building. - The fire on March 1, 2024, was caused by a lightning strike and forced residents to drive 30 minutes to Garberville for mail.
- The new post office offers full retail and P.O. box services with the same hours as before.
- Customers were surprised by the quality of the building, expecting only a modular trailer. The reopening restores a vital service to the rural community, eliminating the long detour for mail.
