This Staples location recently underwent a renovation and is now branded as a "Staples Connect"…read morecenter. The new branding is more modern, sleek and appealing. I frequent Staples for the odd print job every now and then. The printing rates for black and white documents are actually pretty reasonable! I paid $1.60 to print 10 pages. Since my recent discovery that Staples has a UPS service, I'll probably be visiting more often. Staples also saved me during the current pandemic. I was able to score Lysol spray and sanitizing wipes here. You can find a limited supply of cleaning supplies and food/drinks here, but will be paying a premium on items. YELP'S 2020 REVIEW CHALLENGE: #10

A store that is now focused on Office and Tech needs, is closed today "because their wifi is down…read moreand they need to wait for another employee to come in in 3 hours(not an exaggeration, they said the employee would be in at 1, its currently 10am, opening)to fix it". So number 1 you're telling me that your stores don't properly utilize the technology they sell and number 2, that your employees have no understanding of simple tech troubleshooting, number 3 you're paying people to sit there and be useless, overall great management.

Most useless human in the planet. Came at opening to print a couple pages urgently, asked the guy…read moreto help. He tells me to use the self service machine, which I then struggled w for 10 minutes, and again I asked if I could just email him the file. He said wait a few minutes for it to come then try the machine again. You're literally the only other person in the store, you see I'm in a rush and struggling. You're standing around in your phone. Instead maybe just help. Ridiculous bc I have an account and our business spends a lot of money here. Come here with extra time to spare only.

Service Requested: Printing, Returns…read more Quality: Sometimes they are understaffed (i.e. on Saturdays), but the team is accommodating and kind. For example, I needed to do a printing on Saturday (1 sheet lol) and the email I got said "pick up 5pm". I thought 1 sheet would take way faster than that, so I went at 10am during opening hours. The man working there said even though I was in the que, he got it printed right away for me. They are also fast with their returns. Great value for their service(s) provided. Also this plaza (Station Landing) is great.

Walking in, you're immediately struck by the variety, shelves and tables filled with interesting dishes, an incredible selection of greeting cards, art prints, and all sorts of thoughtful items for the home. We spent a long time browsing and loved seeing so many different and creative designs we hadn't seen anywhere else. It's the perfect place to find a truly special gift or a little something to brighten up your own space. The prices felt very reasonable for the quality and uniqueness of everything they carry. It's a fantastic spot for anyone who appreciates good design, supporting local artists, or just needs a great card. We left with a few treasures and will definitely be back.

I had a good experience here overall. They have sturdy moving or shipping boxes on sale. The person…read morewho helped me was kind, and cut my box down to size when I didn't use all of it, so I wouldn't be charged extra. The one thing I wish I had known before was that business accounts can't be used at stores, which are franchise locations. I had already packed my box before I realized. The person was nice about it, and checked if the account could be used a number of times. He pointed out that I had to go to a center if I wanted to use the account, and that the stores were franchises, and blocked the use of accounts. That was helpful to know for the future.

I run a small business and while I ship most of my orders through USPS, occasionally UPS offers…read morebetter rates for large packages, so I make drop offs here on a regular basis. I was really glad to learn that they sell packing peanuts, because sometimes I run out and need to grab supplies at the last minute. Well, the last time I asked for packing peanuts, the employee told me that they no longer sell them and this was a company wide policy change. Turns out that was a lie: He just didn't feel like going in the back and making up the bags for me. I couldn't find anything on the UPS website regarding this policy change, so I asked another staff member the next time I was at the store, and that person confirmed that I can absolutely still buy packing peanuts there. All I can say is that if UPS doesn't want to take my money for supplies, that is just fine. I go to U-Haul or Staples now if I need supplies in a hurry. I just drop my pre-paid packages off at this store as necessary and will not buy anything else or seek additional services. I'm still leaving 3 stars because everyone else I've encountered at this store was courteous and helpful.

The job I had submitted had some issues, but instead of pushing back and telling ME to fix it (like a competitor of theirs I went to before the recommendation to use CPC) Paul and his team were happy to work with me and make the changes needed themselves. I highly recommend them and will absolutely be using their services again in the future.

I am a firm believer of shopping local, Minuteman press of Malden is one of those places that makes…read moreyou happy they exist. My industry tends to buy in bulk and get all of their printing needs from a printer located out of state. For many years, it was just easier to stay with what you know. More recently however I found out why I like to shop locally. Not only did they deliver my order, but they did it quickly and with a smile. Look everyone knows where this country of ours is headed, outsource everything, NAFTA and the 90's did a number on America, but maybe just maybe there is hope. With a clever name like Minuteman which screams America, and local sourcing and smiles there really is no reason for me to ever call anybody else. Lindsay and her crew are fast, efficient, knowledgeable and priced right. I was a printer for 4 years and know the long hours, customer OK's and general bull@#$ you have to put up with and now that I am on the other end, let me just tell you how nice it is to have someplace like this. No job too big or small and the personal touch that this country so sorely needs and misses. Let's give a big finger to the Walmart's and Amazons of the world and keep this country of ours, and jobs, and revenue in the hands of local businesses. You'll just feel better about yourself. Happy 4th people.....

Everyone there knows their stuff and is super helpful. They'll help talk through what kind of paper choose, how to format your documents, etc - whatever you need to do to make things look good. 2. They're prices are very reasonable. Before discovering them, I had priced things out online at various online printers and ship & print places - Fleming is often half the price. Combined with point #1, it's a no-brainer The only challenging thing is that they don't have a flashy, modern web interface. In fact, their website could use a little love. Your best bet is to just give them a call (and if you're a person who doesn't like talking on the phone, like myself, don't worry - they're super friendly).

We decided to give a call and chat with them about our very specific needs for our custom wedding invitations. We worked with Renee, who is totally awesome and very tolerant of my general level of insanity when it comes to planning the wedding. She was patient, worked with us and spent a very long time doing math with my fiance to make sure we had our paper sizes correct, and had a great sense of humor. Our invites, RSVP cards, and direction cards all came out perfectly and we are thrilled at how fast and easy it was to set up. The rates were reasonable and we saved a ton of money by designing and printing our own invites rather than buying them through a stationary store or getting them done online. Bottom line: Knowledgeable, friendly and quality-focused. We were really happy with Fleming and would definitely use them again.
