The Rolleston Licensed Post Office is located at 35 Warrijo Street, the Rolleston portion of the Dawson Highway, and provides a fairly wide range of services, with post office boxes available but no passport business. It is open Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, closed Saturday and Sunday.
Rolleston is a small town on the Comet River in the Central Highlands Regional Council local government area, 335 kilometres west of Gladstone and 694 kilometres northwest of Brisbane. Rolleston lies on the junction of the Carnarvon, Gregory and Dawson highways. There is a large coal mine nearby called the Rolleston Coal Mine. Mining began in October 2005 and is expected to last more than 20 years.
Rolleston also serves as a staging point for trips to the nearby Carnarvon National Park.
