Service Requested - Well, I went to return a UPS package. They told me to go to a UPS store and gave me a little paper with the address. So I walked there instead. Quality- They gave me a piece of paper with an address (which was nice) but that wasn't what I really wanted. Value- It was nice that they redirected me to a place that would actually take my UPS return package but as for the value of advertising UPS shipping? A little suspect... Honestly, if you have the UPS logo on the top and in the middle of your sign out front, please do not refer me to a different UPS outlet. It's fairly deceptive to advertise UPS almost as your main gig, yet refer me to an entirely different location. Need to ship via UPS? Go to the UPS store. They'll even give you the address on a little sheet of paper. read more

PDQ Fingerprinting - Told to go here instead. - Notaries Near Me - Davis, California

Very friendly and efficient. They do everything happily. I will definitely go back. Nothing seems too much for them

If you need a Live Scan service, go to PDQ! There are signs that easily indicate which door you should walk through if you're here for fingerprints. They are the most affordable place in the Davis area. Check their website for the "rolling fee" you'll owe PDQ. If your Live Scan is for both FBI and DOJ, expect to pay an additional ~$50 on top of your rolling fee. The person helping me at PDQ was very knowledgeable and personable. I can tell this person cares to provide excellent customer service. They had me "re-do" one scan just to be on the safe side. My only constructive criticism is the time estimate. I went at a very busy time (probably because it is the beginning of the school year). There was a sign up sheet and the person helping me said because 2 customers were ahead of me, it'd be about a 20 minute wait. I went on a 15 minute walk and ended up waiting an additional 35 minutes inside. By the time I wrapped up, an hour had elapsed since my arrival time. If you're in a rush, this might not be the place for you. I noticed the person working gave more accurate wait times to the people after me, so maybe it was a one-time thing. I just wasn't expecting the trip to take up a large chunk of my afternoon. Nevertheless, I am recommending PDQ to my friends who will need Live Scan in the near future. Thanks! read more

I've been dealing with this business for decades. The fingerprinting area used to be another downtown Post Office, but USPS changed that. I've since been there to be fingerprinted for teaching, notary, and of course, sending packages. Everybody is a pleasure to do business with. read more

Did what we needed. I don't know what else to say. Cool man trap door. why do I need to type so many characters read more

This place is amazing! I love how knowledgeable and kind their employees are. The service you get is quick and reliable. They are very professional in here. If you are concerned about parking, there's plenty out front and surrounding the streets by this building. I highly recommend if you are truly worried about parking that you go a little bit early so you can guarantee a spot. If this place is busy, there is a waiting area you can be seated in while you patiently wait for your turn. When I arrived, nobody was in there, and I was promptly taken care of. This location is by far the best fingerprinting location I have ever experienced. read more

Best in the west! Amazing service! Family owned business! Got my fingerprinting done and shipped them. Gary was so professional! Really really the best! I cannot say enough how much I loved my experience. Never have enjoyed shipping or thought I would say I had the best experience shipping on Yelp, but there is always a first and I wish this place was in charge of our usps! Not only do you get the best service you get the best prices too! They were by far the cheapest fingerprinting place in northern bay and the shipping material was insanely cheap as well. read more

Wow, excellent service their customer service and their prices are superb. Had to return a party tent and they help me get it down package properly and ship it without any issues or hesitations. Definitely recommend this any other FedEx UPS in the area. Thank you for being such good help and expediting the process of shipping. Jesus R. read more

Great service on a very short notice. Thorough and professional. Fair and reasonable pricing read more

Can't say enough good stuff about PDQ! They're a mom & pop shop that's been open for 40 years, and you really get the family vibe as soon as you step in. I get stressed out having to send things (finding the boxes, wrapping it up... it's just always such a hassle) but whenever I bring anything in to send, they do all this for me and it's a huge relief. Now, the bonus. Lynn, the pop in the mom & pop, has taken to painting as his quarantine hobby, and has been slowly working up a beautiful gallery of paintings of their customers that they display in the shop. I was in there a few weeks ago, and we got to talking about the paintings, and I volunteered to get my portrait. Lo & behold, a few weeks later I hear from them and Lynn has painted my portrait. I am so honored, and think it's the sweetest way to contribute to the community, on top of what they already do. Thank you Lynn, Laura, and family! read more

A fantastic, hard-working, honest, and friendly team that runs this store with the utmost care and courtesy! When you walk it, it feels more like someone's home kitchen than a business. The level of care and passion is unbelievable. One could not ask for a more dedicated and professional staff! I have been frequenting this shop for a few years now, and always feel blessed to have such a wonderful team and service in my city! Highly Recommend. read more

I've been coming here for livescans and now passport photos and can't recommend them enough! They get the job done in a timely manner at a great cost with friendly customer service. read more

Needed to get a few things notarized a week ago and this place made it super easy. I was in and out in no time and the person behind the glass who helped me was very helpful. The whole place seemed very safe and Covid-conscious as well, which was a huge plus for me. I don't often need notary services, but the next time I do I'm glad to know PDQ will be there for me! read more

This place has been a life saver as I'm navigating a complicated remote hiring experience via my school. Their notary public was excellent at explaining my paperwork to me & provided me with referrals to other legal help if I had more questions. I've also had my live scan done here & it was a quick process. They have strict COVID precautions in place. Their live scan is disinfected after every customer. They have glass between the live scan rep & the public. Everyone is wearing masks & they require masks for customers to enter. Plenty of hand sanitizer for you to clean after contact. I'm happy with their prices too. Especially since their customer service is so excellent! Thank you for your help, especially during this strange & difficult time! read more

We love PDQ and have been going there for years. We responded notary services and PDQ is always available and we get in and out quickly. The same can be said for fingerprinting and all types of mailing services. The staff does a great job of giving you mailing options and finding ways to save money. This week I was able to get UPS ground service for half the cost with delivery one day later. A fun thing about visiting PDQ is looking at all of the original portraits of customers and people who live in Davis. Chances are you'll recognize someone you know. read more

This shop is part of Davis' history! Laura always talk to customers in gentle tone with good advice of shipping. Without PDQ, Davis is no longer friendly Davis! read more

I was getting a passport photo and mailing off application. They assisted me every step and made it quick and easy with incredible service.

I came here for my passport photo. They were so nice and speedy as well. My pics turned out really nice. Reasonably priced too. Also if you're like me and you want to support small family owned businesses I highly recommend this place! read more

I came to PDQ for a Live Scan, and this process could not have been easier. Great customer service and I knew exactly how long my wait would be with a few people ahead of me. Easy breezy! Highly recommend read more

Almost unbelievably great service. The staff was extraordinarily helpful in packaging up several antique and high value items that were extremely fragile. read more

I had a good experience here. I just had to wait my turn, which wasn't very long, I had my fingerprints scanned, they processed payment, and I was out! No complaints at all read more

Well organized, reliable Notary, fingerprinting, and UPS package Shipping supplies and services.

Landon was very helpful and responsive. Helped me to re-do a scan when my employer said that the OCA was wrong. Affordable pricing, great little spot to get your livescan done! read more

We have gone to PDQ twice in the last month for their notary service. The two different employees who helped us (one each time) were SO kind and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was done just right. They did not make us feel rushed at all and just treated us so politely. It was truly a wonderful experience! read more

I was recommended to come here for my Livescan from a friend. Great price, no appointment needed, and fast service. I also was able to save a trip and send some mail right next door. Highly recommend going here for the livescan unless you feel like getting ripped off somewhere else! :) read more

Came in to get my fingerprints for my internship. I tried calling the UC Davis and police departments and they recommended PDQ. Located right next to Blaze and the UPS building. Walked in and was helped right away. Lynn was very informative and helpful. The process was smooth and efficient. It was such a pleasant experience. Highly recommend. $18 for one set of fingerprints. read more

I got my notary service done here. Very helpful and courteous, and charged only $15 per document. The lady also told me how to get Apostilles in Sacramento myself for $26/Apostille. I made a mistake a few months ago by calling Apostille Now, who charged $199/document. read more

I needed quick fingerprints for work and found PDQ Fingerprinting on Yelp. I printed the LiveScan PDF, told my co-worker I'd BRB (didn't want her to think I went AWOL), and raced over ASAP. YMMV but TBH PDQ (AKA: Parcel Dispatch PDQ) was everything I needed and more. Quick, cheap, courteous service. BTW, some reviews quote the LiveScan at $18. As of May 2017, the price is $35, but that's still $30 cheaper than my local UPS. PDQ FTW. (OK, no more acronyms, LOL.) read more

I last minute needed to get some fingerprints done they did them same day. I love that you don't need an appointment . They were so nice I will be using them in the future thanks read more

Best professional and personable business in town. I had difficulties sending amazon packages back with online glitches. They worked through every possibility and solved the problem. Problem solved! Exceptional service!! read more

I love PDQ! I had an antique clock that has been in my family for years and went to PFQ to mail it to my cousin in Idaho. The staff took great care in wrapping the clock for me and it arrived safely and perfectly in tact! My cousin is thrilled to receive it. Thank you PDQ! read more

I got my fingerprints done today! Haven't had them done since before kindergarten... The lady who helped me was very friendly and efficient--I didn't have to wait at all. She even had a great sense of humor. That's always a plus in my book. :) read more

Long time family business with personal and attentive approach to service. Had some family business to take care of and they walked me through each of the steps and helped me to accomplish what I needed. read more

Great price, quick service, friendly people! I went in on a Saturday right when the shop opened (10AM) and was assisted immediately. The gentleman explained the process to me in a clear quick way and had a great sequence of events to get my payment, prints, and processing done quickly. This was by far the cheapest price in the Davis area for live scan and I was not disappointed! read more

Fast and friendly. A quirky little shop with notary, shipping, fingerprinting, and a surprisingly good selection of greeting cards. Also, work-required fingerprinting was cheap. Would definitely go back. read more

I cannot tell you how much I appreciate the staff's kindness and excellent customer service the other day. I had been all over town trying to find a place that does UK visa/passport photos, and found that the clerks at the Post Office and other places were incredibly rude and unhelpful. By the time I got to PDQ, I was incredibly stressed, but they went out of their way to help me figure out a solution and carefully helped me package and check off each item I had to send to the UK visa office. They were well staffed and when there weren't other customers to help, they all jumped in to make sure I had everything I needed. They were knowledgeable, efficient and professional, and they triple-checked prices with me to get the best shipping deal without spending too much money. I can't express how much they helped turn a pretty bad day around. I would suggest their services in a heartbeat. read more

I can't say enough good things about this family run business. They are patient, detailed, helpful, and very kind. They've helped me send engine parts and taken the care to help me package the items very carefully making it super easy for me. All in one, I won't be going anywhere else for my shipping needs. Cheers PDQ! read more

Very disappointed with this small business. They refused to believe that the first fingerprint card I paid for could be rejected by the FBI (for submitting prints on the wrong form). Two months later, they call and offer to refund my money for their original mistake of not being current with federal guidelines. Makes one wonder what other rules and regs this business is unaware of. They tout themselves as being one of the few establishments in Northern California to offer old fashioned ink based fingerprinting (which is still required in some instances). "Old fashion" is the best way to describe their business model, too. Say what you will about your local police station--I'll bet they can at least keep their forms straight. read more
