All letters and parcels in Singapore are sorted at the single Mail Processing Centre at Eunos.

Singapore Post Centre in Eunos
In the multi-storied building, an army of housewives and part-time workers operate sophisticated machines that automate the sorting of mail into bite-sized portions for the postmen to deliver.
Each postman is responsible for 25 blocks in his beat.
