A USPS employee confirmed on October 20, 2025, that the Mountainhome Post Office may be relocating early next year, though the agency has not yet made an official announcement. The uncertainty follows a change in property ownership and differing accounts about future plans for the site.
The post office’s lease is set to expire January 31, 2026. The building—once owned by the Price family, whose Price Chevrolet dealership stood across Route 390—was recently purchased by the new owners of Starner’s Quick Mart, who now own the entire property. The previous operators of Starner’s had rented their space from the Prices.
