USPS Money Order or cash on customer pickup.

...Been told "take it to your bank"...

Wow! I think I'd be asking the PO Managers about that.

"How to Cash Domestic Money Orders
Domestic money orders never expire and they do not accrue interest. Money orders are cashed for the exact amount on the order.


You can cash a USPS money order at a Post Office for free. You can also cash them at most banks and some stores. Rural carriers may cash money orders if they have enough money on hand."

Maybe they need to read their own policy.......
