Downtown Billings Is Losing Its FedEx Ship Center

The FedEx Ship Center at 1148 First Avenue North is closing on September 26, 2026. This location sits on the eastern edge of downtown Billings, where the commercial grid gives way to industrial buildings and rail yards near North Park. I first learned through an email, then drove over to talk to the staff to confirm it was legitimate.

FedEx Ship Center on First Avenue North Closing for Good

The staff confirmed what the email said: this location shuts down for good on September 26. FedEx isn't pulling out of Billings; they're consolidating, which means the services this Ship Center handled are shifting to a different address in town.

New FedEx Drop Off Spot for Downtown Billings Customers

Your new stop is the FedEx Office at 2450 King Ave W in Billings. You can drop off and pick up eligible shipments there once the First Avenue location closes. If the extra drive isn't worth it, you can schedule a pickup through fedex.com and have a driver grab your package from home or your office instead.

Downtown Billings Loses a Shipping Option

Nobody at the counter seemed thrilled about the closing. It's the kind of change that doesn't make headlines but rearranges a small daily habit for many downtown regulars who've relied on that location.
