Went to FOUR different listed notary publics that are listed to be open along Ventura Blvd between Yolanda and Louise and they were all closed, despite the listed business hours on the internet. The last of the four happen to be located a couple of addresses next to A1 Copy Service. So glad I happen to look over and saw the word "notary" at the front. And the door was open. Very cheap and fast notary service. Friendly. No line. I cannot emphasize enough that this place is OPEN during the posted hours. Very important when you're trying to get papers notarized -- It would certainly save you an hour or two of trying to find a notary CLAIMING to be open. BTW, they also have shipping and packing and mailing services. read more

These people are the worst! When I signed up they were a 24 hour access spot but then half way through it they stated due to security and safety, needed to make it regular biz hours . When my year was up, I went to turn in my key and took in the paperwork for them to forward my mail for 6 months (which is their obligation per postal code at my expense ) and the rude guy which works there basicly told me to f myself. "It's not our policy" he stated. Buddy it's the law, it's youur obligation , "sue me" he said. I'm too busy to go file a formal complaint with the post master but I would strongly recommend to steer clear of these guys. read more

I had an unusually-shaped item I needed shipped to NYC. Aaron, behind the counter, put on his thinking cap and McGyvered a perfectly sized and sturdy package. Plus we discussed guitar GOATs -- Jimi or Prince? I am a repeat customer! read more

To the person with the one star rating Justin H. About the Postage being marketed up. I work at another Mailbox Store. Mailbox stores do have to mark up the price for postage. It cost us the same if not more with 3nd party software to buy postage and pay to print it out. Small business mailbox stores have to make money. We cant do that by giving you the postage at cost. Even it cost us even more in fees and time. If you go to the Post Office it will be a longer line you have to wait in. read more

I strongly advise going to this location. She totally took the time to find me the best price for my packaging &mailing needs . If you check in on yelp you get three months free for a PO Box. read more

See all

Terrible service. Me and one other person in place. I walk in for a quick notorary. The guy behind desk doesn't even acknowledge me for a solid 10 minutes. Other Customer insists to help me first and then get back to her apparent lost package. The guy behind the desk refuses. Never come here for efficient service. read more

Mailbox 1 - Shipping Centers Near Me - Encino, California

As far as I can tell, there are only two people who work there but they are both friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, they used to be accessible 24/7 but now you can only check your mail during business hours because of recent break-ins. It's a pain in the butt because it's not always ready for me to get there during the day but I don't blame them. read more

They always keep my mail and packages stored even when I am in frequent with pick ups! I really love that I can list this location as a different type of address other than a PO box, it is extremely helpful. Aaron and Maria give great personable customer service! read more

They raise the price after your promotional year double. No service either. Not a good place

This place is a gem. First off I have to say the location is very convenient and the staff are very polite, informative, and resourceful. I recently moved to Encino, Ca and needed notary services and I needed to mail these notarized documents. Thankfully this place does it all. I was able to get the services I needed. While I was there I noticed they have the best prices in town for mailbox rentals. Needless to say I now have a mailbox I rent here with 24/7 access & I got 3 MONTHS FREE. This place is amazing they offer shipping from DHL, FedEx, Federal Express , and USPS. I honestly do not like receiving packages at home. I just do not want to deal with lost or missing packages. This is a safe way to receive packages. read more

I really like this place based on the convenient location and service. They have good specials for new customers.

I have my POBOX for years in mailbox 1, it's the most safest and respectful place to be at , the 2 employees are very kind and helpful, they always greet you with a big smile . I strongly recommend this place to whoever is looking to rent a mailbox. Cathy Z read more

I have a mailbox here for three years. I am quite happy. Reasonable pricing , Polite and helpful personnel read more

During COVID I have been online shopping a lot and sending things back to my family on the East Coast. I came in to send a t-shirt and card to my sister in Boston and I was able to send back an Amazon as well as ship a USPS return. Anik was patient with me during the entire process. I think if you have a small business in the area this would also be a great location for a mailbox and I always love a place with a parking lot! read more

Great shipping company! I was referred to this business by my friend who has an online business. She has never had a problem so I tried them. I have been using this place for 3 years now for all of my shipping needs and I also have an online business. I have never had a problem. Mailbox 1 is very competitive with their prices. This company is always willing to work with me to make sure I am comfortable with price. The staff are very helpful. PS I also rent a mailbox from them and the price is the cheapest in the city. read more

DO NOT SHIP FROM HERE!! They will mark up anywhere from 65% to 253% no joke. They wanted to charge me $80 more than USPS down the street! And they didn't offer me the cheaper First Class, but only Priority Mail. I priced two packages at USPS and then went to Mailbox 1 to compare, asking for the cheapest rate across all 4 carriers. On the first package, they quoted $17 for an $11 package - a 65% markup. On the 2nd package, they quoted $132 for what USPS said was $52 - this is a 235% markup, unreal. When I mentioned the difference in rate, they said "well, we add a markup". Fact is, they can add whatever markup they want to the rates they quote - the price is completely arbitrary and does not reflect the actual rate from the carriers. They also have to pay tax on their shipping, USPS doesn't, so that gets passed on to the customer. The reason I did the price comparison was because last week they charged me $175 to ship a box to Virginia that FedEx online said would cost $43. I did have to add insurance and double box, but their cheapest "base rate" still started around $72 vs $43. Crazy. If you want to rent a mailbox or get notary services, great. But avoid shipping from here - the markups are exorbitant. It's amazing they can get away with this. read more

Been there for years. The staff is very friendly and professional. Very reasonable prices. Aaron is a cool cat and always on his game.

The person who works Saturdays until closing has absolutely NO people skills. Therefore, there is NO customer service. I turned around and walked out simply due to his repelling behavior and snarky responses. Just terrible. Don't ever ask for help here, they act like you are a disruption. read more

Very attentive and the guy on duty went above and beyond. It was like service in the 80s!!!! Only minor complaint... I wish they had a bigger stock and selection of envelopes and shipping material choices. read more

This company left a magnet on my car as advertising . When trying to remove it, it scratched my car that i just bought today. read more
