WHITEHALL — Traveling on bumpy dirt roads is a way of life for many in Montana, but dozens of residents in a remote neighborhood south of Whitehall are feeling frustrated that they will no longer receive packages at their doorsteps from UPS.
The global shipping giant recently notified residents of this remote area that they would no longer receive packages due to the quality of their road and the theft of a drop box that was placed near federal mailboxes.
"At this point, I feel like I should be on UPS’s payroll. Now we’re required to drive over Homestake to get our packages, you know, and a lot of times, we do pay for shipping," says Cathy Sherman.
UPS has stopped delivering to residents south of Whitehall due to road conditions, affecting people who rely on medication deliveries: Ru
