The driving distance from Durango, Colorado to Albuquerque, New Mexico is 215 miles

Starting Sept. 28, the mail Durango (Colorado) residents drop in collection boxes or at the Post Office will be taken to Albuquerque for processing, a U.S. Postal Service spokesman said.

Also, mail addressed to Durango residents will be sorted in Albuquerque and forwarded.

No longer will mail be processed in Durango, Brian Sperry, a Denver-based regional spokesman for the agency, said Friday.

In May 2012, the Herald reported on a Postal Service announcement that said Durango’s mail-processing facility would not be consolidated until at least 2014.

Sperry could not say Friday why the closing of Durango’s mail-processing was apparently moved up, or how exactly that will affect the length of time it will take mail to get to and from Durango.
