Sandoval County Treasurer Offices Temporarily Closed, Toy Drive Accepting Donations

Sandoval County confirmed brief changes to Treasurer’s Office operations this week and reminded residents the office is collecting donations for its annual holiday toy drive. The office was closed on Thursday December 11 from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM, and it will be closed for the full day Monday December 15. The county posted those service notices as part of seasonal updates intended to help residents plan in person transactions.

The Treasurer’s Office is running its annual toy drive from November 24 through December 17 and is accepting new unopened toys at the Administration Building, 1500 Idalia Road in Bernalillo. Residents who wish to donate can drop off items during regular building hours, and contact details for the Treasurer’s Office are posted for questions about drop off times and eligibility. The drive continues through mid December, providing an opportunity for local contributions before the Dec 17 deadline.

The timing of the closures overlaps with ongoing seasonal activity at county offices, which may affect residents who schedule visits for payment or document services. Residents who planned to visit the Treasurer’s Office should reschedule around the announced dates, use posted contact information to verify hours, or confirm whether services are available by appointment. The county’s notice aims to reduce confusion by announcing both the past midday closure and the upcoming full day closure in advance.

Local impact is practical and immediate, especially for those relying on in person service during the holiday period. The toy drive adds a civic dimension to the notices, inviting community participation at a central county facility. Officials encourage residents to take the posted closures into account and to use the provided contact information to confirm service availability or to coordinate donations before the drive ends on December 17.
