Postal Service Overview

Dover's post office serves a scattered rural community in Shawnee County, Kansas. The ZIP code officially serves 16 PO Boxes with no residential street delivery available within this zone. While classified as a PO Box-only ZIP, the area does connect to broader delivery networks through neighboring postal zones.

Delivery Infrastructure

The local post office sits along SW K4 Highway, handling mail for both residential boxes and 14 businesses. Two rural carrier routes (Route R) operate from this facility, extending service beyond the immediate Dover area. The street delivery network remains minimal, with just two documented streets: SW 57th Street (3 delivery points) and SW K4 Highway (1 delivery point). A single named building appears in postal records—the Postmaster facility itself. This delivery pattern reflects Dover's role as a small postal hub for surrounding farmland rather than a densely populated town center.
