One local couple has big plans for shipping and receiving in St. Joseph.

Kim and Rhonda Blaylock are opening up a new store called Goin’ Postal which is a franchise for shipping and receiving.

“We think it’s a business that this city needs,” Kim said. “Where are you going to go and drop off a FedEx package except these boxes that are around town?”

Rhonda said they will offer DHL (international shipping), UPS, FedEx and regular postal services as well as other business related services. They said they will also offer mailbox rentals.

The business is going into 1/3rd of the old Leibowitz building in East Ridge Village.

The Blaylocks said they hope to be open for business by mid-March. Kim said after they open store hours will be Monday-Friday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
