I buy supplies here all the time to do my own shipping. They have the best prices and selection I have found for bubble wrap and boxes. They also take in used "peanuts" for reuse/recycle. Sometimes I get them in shipments to me but don't like to keep or use them myself, so I bring them here. I have used the store to pack and ship a few specialty items like skis and they have done it well. They are nice people. read more

Pak Mail - Shipping Centers Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

The man wearing the yarmulke completely lied to me. He quoted $80 to ship something USPS, which was outrageous because it was a very lightweight box. I asked if that was the same price as if I went to the post office and he said yes. I went to the post office and it was $40. read more

Came in to set up a mail box as I just recently moved to Boulder and Judd went above and beyond in assisting me with setting up the service. So far, I've had several Chrismas gifts from family sent to me with no issue so I highly recommend Pakmail read more

Rude. Incompetent. Unprofessional. Just to summarize our experience at this PakMail. We have a corporate account with FedEx, and many years experience with shipping. We walked into this PakMail (we were the only customers) and the employees clearly didn't want to be bothered, get off their phones or come from behind the counter in order to help us pack and ship two boxes. They didn't even make an ATTEMPT to offer decent minimum standard customer service. We left there, walked into the FedEx (Pearl Street) where we were warmly greeted, assisted, and out the door in less than 7 minutes. Oh, and the PakMail owner's phone has no voicemail...so good luck giving feedback on the business. Don't waste your time walking into this PakMail! read more

I had a mailbox here the last few years and these guys are amazing! Manny is a great guy and he stays on top of things. They're organized and really efficient. I definitely recommend! read more

I've used mail box stores all over the world and in at least 7 cities in the US, this place is the best! Manny and Judd are great, love the place read more

This is a great store! The customer service is amazing! Judd and Manny are wonderful.

I was in the Boulder PAKMAIL store this morning. I was helped by a friendly professional man who made the transaction easy. Thank you Judd.

The folks at Pak Mail are literally some of the nicest and most helpful sales people in Boulder. A great place in general. John M. read more

Unhelpful. Doesn't verfiy business addresses before sending packages. When I asked them to do so, the two employees (bored behind the counter) acted baffled and frazzled that I would request something so extreme. One pretended to scramble for a cell phone (which he then declined to use) to say he could google the address for me. But he recommended I call the business instead. Waste of money and time to use Pak Mail. read more

My International package from Boulder to Mexico City arrived in less than 24 hours. In addition, after several call to other carriers this was the most reasonable, and it did not disappoint, my package arrived on schedule sound and safe. I would highly recommend PAK Mail . Elena read more

PakMail is superb! Packed, insured and shipped a priceless oil painting flawlessly. Thanks Gil!

PAK MAIL across from McGuckin's is the most professional, easiest to work with and, in every way the most reasonable packing and shipping service for miles around. They are great people, and whatever they promise to provide, they absolutely do, and they are such nice people. read more

Thought i would try this place out since its near my house. The guy was very rude. Said one thing to me and walked away. Its not hard to be polite if u still can't help me! I will not go here ever again. Save your time and go somewhere they appreciate your business and treat u nicely! read more

Needed to mail some family photos from Boulder to LA. They arrived in 2 days perfectly packaged and in great shape. Pleasantly surprised and pleased :) read more

Friendly service and quite fast. Seems to reliably receive mail. Did not try to close early on New Year's Eve.

I'd never though I'd ever write a review on Yelp. If anyone deserves a positive write-up, it's these guys. I love this place. Everyone who has helped me here has been super helpful, friendly, and professional. The place is charmingly dated. They don't even have any computers up front, which, at first, had me a little apprehensive, but, lo and behold, my packages always ended up making it where they had to. Why am I taking the time to write this? The other day I went in there and had to ship something to Canada, and the contents of my package wouldn't fit in their smaller mailer, but only in a larger box. The large box was about $50 more to ship (mailing stuff is f****** expensive). Instead of telling me I had no other options, they jimmy-rigged two smaller mailers to fit around my package, saving me at least $50, and a lot of trouble. If you're going to shipping something in boulder, do yourself a favor and go with these guys. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. First of all, if you care about the environment at all, even just a little bit, you will stay away from this place. My mother mailed me some dishes and glasses using this place. Not only did they charge almost $1,000 DOLLARS to do this, but I was left with 9 giant black trash bags of peanuts and 6 giant black trash bags of bubble wrap and tape (lots of tape all around the bubble wrap so very hard to reuse most of it). I was able to give the peanuts to a local shipper (I live in VA) in hope that all that awful stryrofoam won't end up in our waterways immediately but I had no other option but to put most of the rest in the trash. I talked to the owner and he mansplained in circles until he wore himself out and hung up. It took him 3-4 hours to create these two boxes of environmental and wallet killing horror but he only charged $85 for his labor so...it was also a GIANT ripoff. I mean, just try to do the actual math on that it means he charged us around $500 in packing materials. My mom is older and I said I feel he took advantage of her and he said he knows lots of "old people," his mother is old, and he would never rip off an "old lady." Um, she's in her early 70's, she's not an "old lady." So, let's add ageism to the pile of DO NOT USE THIS PAK MAIL reasons. I'm sure he will respond with more mansplaining, if he knows what that is (I'll help him: it's when a man explains things to a woman in a very condescending manner, assuming she doesn't understand anything). Oh, I understand. I understand you overcharged us by at least $500. I understand you blamed an "old lady" (my mom) for any and all of your "reasons" aka excuses for charging us almost ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS to mail two boxes. I understand that she asked you not to use peanuts but you did it anyway because you know better than old women and probably women in general. Hmmmm, should we add sexism? Yes! Let's do that! Caveat emptor people (he would explain that is Latin for let the buyer beware because he assumes you don't know). So, this know-it-all overcharging environmental nightmare of a person that is agest and sexist is going to probably also tell you how long he has been doing this ("shipping" aka killing the environment, ripping people off, etc.) because he told me at least 30 times. Does that change anything that happened? Does that make any of this ok? No! It's another excuse and he is good at those. It's like when my kid got paint all over the deck and tried to explain it away. No, you got paint all over the deck, I don't care why, you now get to learn how to strip and stain a deck. The difference is, my kid made it right, this guy just hung up on me. He had ZERO interest in making it right. Oh, he said he would give my mom a discount on future shipping. I had to laugh. I mean, why on earth would she ship with him again? Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame in me, or, in this case, an "old lady." I'll get back to Boulder one of these days and stage a peaceful protest. I'll keep you all posted. In the meantime, please do what you can to help me in my quest to stand up against the environmental horror and price gouging to the extreme that is this THIS Pak Mail (they aren't all like this). read more

I've had a mail box at Pak Mail in Boulder since 2006. They are excellent and the employees always go the extra mile.

In my years in Boulder I have never had anything other than a superior experience at Pak Mail. My most recent shipment involved packages to my elderly father's house in Texas. The package was repacked by Pak mail to save me dollars (one pkg instead of two) and the driver mistakenly delivered it next door. When it didn't arrive, the owner of Pak Mail (on a horrendously busy day at his shop) personally tracked the package down, found it and advised me of such. My Dad retrieved the package the same day. Outstanding customer service every time. The staff is equally accommodating. I drive across town to use this shipping company only. read more

Terrible service. And overpriced to boot! I would not recommend using Pak Mail Center. I've had much better service at Fed-Ex nearby on Pearl and 28th. read more

Did a fantastic job packing and shipping an antique table I found and couldn't get home. Very professional packing job. Would have been nice if it was a bit cheaper (it was over $400). The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars. read more

Moving is just as stressful as everyone says! One good thing was that we found Pak Mail in Boulder. Gil was so kind and calm and helpful that it made us feel calmer too. And everything unfolded just as he promised: He picked up our packages the very time he said he would; they arrived even sooner than he predicted; and everything was carefully packed and palletized and de-palletized at our new home. Best of all, everything arrived safe and sound! We feel grateful to Gil and to Pak Mail, and it is that gratitude that got me motivated to write this review! read more

I would never go back to a local packing store again after dealing with this overpriced customer unfriendly place. The material costs are extremely overpriced as well as the shipping. Go direct to Fed Ex, or even the PO after packing yourself.... you will save at least half of what this joker charges. read more

One word: terrible. The inside is shabby and dirty in appearance. In a normal business, it's common courtesy to greet your customers when they walk in. Instead, at this company they just stare at customers with their hands folded across their chest. It has a creepy, unfriendly vibe and the personnel always appear angry, hung over, and are ALWAYS rude. I had ordered some special gifts for a relative and paid extra to receive them before Christmas. My tracking information showed both packages had been delivered but I only had a notification slip for one of them in my box. It is customary for them to be very late in processing mail and packages, as they are lazy and disorganized routinely, with packages and mail stacked up for hours that blocks patrons mail boxes. The clerk looked at me with a blank stare and claimed he " didn't have nothing " for me. I then showed him confirmation by the carrier that it had been delivered with all tracking info and exact time of delivery. He then began arguing with me telling me that " tracking information" is never reliable which is absolute non sense with regard to information that confirms delivery. It was even signed for by either he or the other clerk there. I asked him if he could actually check and he leaned back against the counter and began eating a lunch, slowly peeling oranges. After a half hour waiting and trying to find out anything further with the carrier, another employee finally found it. No apology, but rather, they acted like it was somehow my fault. Very very rude. In general, they are dressed unprofessionally, having inappropriate conversations during business hours, slow, rude, and incredibly lazy. I pay for the services I have to cajole them to perform. It appears these middle aged guys have no education, skill or trade and it was either this job or try to stay on welfare. The owner simply doesn't care and their behavior mirrors him. This is a company you can use as a poster child for how to not run a business. The prices are high and they can't even make up for that with a smile or thank you. Disgusting people. Rude, incompetent and unfriendly. read more
