That's how forwarding orders are handled. The letter/package is machine sorted to the proper branch, then manually sorted into the route order by the carrier. Except for junk mail which is usually already in route order.

Any vacation hold mail or mail to be forwarded gets removed there. If the forward is in the same branch it would be handed off to the carrier for that route. Forwards outside the same branch get a label and are sent back to the regional processing center. The boxes are a "route" so the person handling the po boxes would make a bin of SGC mail and give it to the carrier. I'm not sure if it would get relabeled, probably not.
