New Postmaster and Location Announced for Boyle Post Office
The Boyle post office will move to a new site early next year, with a new postmaster appointed. Paul Kelly Jr. of Kelly’s Supervalu Boyle has accepted the offer to manage the post office, confirmed by an An Post spokesperson.
The post office will relocate from its current Shop Street location to a vacant retail unit inside Kelly’s Supervalu Shopping Centre on Elphin Street, about 450 meters from the existing site. The new premises are scheduled to open on February 3rd.
Last year, An Post engaged Cushman Wakefield to manage the sale of 14 town center post offices, including the Boyle building, which is listed for €130,000. A sales condition requires the post office service to continue operation at the site.
“Yes when we placed the former post office on the market we were doing so on the basis that it would remain as a post office. However, one could never rule out the new contractor giving up their contract, as happened here, not that new applicants would favour a new location,” said the An Post spokesperson.
“That’s what happened here and we have been lucky in coming up with an ideal new location and the chance to provide a new modern facility for the people of Boyle."
Author's summary: The Boyle post office is relocating to Kelly’s Supervalu Shopping Centre under new management, ensuring continuity of service with upgraded facilities starting February 2026.
