The Dabney Post Office is a historic post office located on Kentucky Route 39 in Dabney, Kentucky. The one-story wood-frame building served as Dabney's community store and post office. Ped May built the post office around 1900; May ran both the store and the post office. The post office served as the social hub of Dabney, a common function of combination store and post office buildings in Pulaski County; the Dabney Post Office is one of the few surviving buildings of this type. The post office closed in the 1960s.[2]

The post office was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 14, 1984.[1]
