Where to use the Rus Post Car Key in Escape from Tarkov

The Rus Post Car Key is one of the many items that you can obtain randomly in Escape from Tarkov, and it could be a pretty important object for the future.

While I am unsure if there’s a specific location to find the key, I obtained it from a random raid. The key, incidentally, has a proper use on one of the maps in Escape from Tarkov. This guide will provide you with all the details on where to use the key if you find it during one of your raids.

Rus Post Car location in Escape from Tarkov

If you haven’t figured out from the name itself, the key is required to open the Rus Post Car. To find the vehicle, head to the Post Office on the Streets of Tarkov map. If you’re a beginner, the first task will be to gain access to this map.

The next task is to reach the Post Office. It’s opposite the Pinewood Hotel, and just beside the TerraGroup building. The latter is an important POI as it’s involved in several quests. You can also find secret quests like Unheard at this location.

Go past the TerraGroup Building, and you’ll find the Post Office. You will find a blue van standing in front of the entrance. At first, the van will be locked (you can shoot at the glass window, but it won’t open).

If you have the key in your backpack, you can then use it to unlock the doors. You can open either the front door on the driver’s side or the back. Unfortunately, I never found any loot (attempted it twice, just in case there’s a bug).

Opening the back of the van shows you plenty of undelivered letters, but there’s no loot. I have checked the van thoroughly. The same can also be said about the Post Office building. I firmly believe that this van could be part of a quest in the near future. If you have the key, I will advise you to store it safely, since using it on the van won’t be of much use at the moment.
