The post office doesn't provide street delivery here. Instead, two rural carrier routes handle mail delivery to addresses outside the PO Box system. For most residents, though, picking up mail at the post office remains the standard. HWY 86 and Cleveland Street are the only two streets with ZIP+4 records, showing how compact this community is.
With only two streets recorded in the ZIP+4 database, Estelline has minimal street infrastructure. The highway connection and a single named street reflect a compact rural community where most residents rely on PO Boxes rather than street delivery.
