Mailing something? Need a box, packing tape, or anything else in-between? The Mailbox is well-stocked and convenient - I wanted to mail a postcard, and they saved me a trip to an official post office. Yes, there was a markup on the stamp I bought, but the Mailbox saved me TIME. Besides USPS, this store can facilitate shipping for FedEx and DHL. And I'm sure other services. Friendly quick service. There's a "free bucket" there and inside were greeting cards from Valentine's Day. I took one, of course. This store is closed Sundays, but isn't everything else? read more

I had to get about 60 lbs of my grandmother's china from Seattle to central New York. I chose Mailbox Seattle to do this for me, and they did a great job. It was definitely not cheap, but it was worth it, and all the pieces arrived safely and very well packed. I broke down the receipt, and found that 62% of the cost went to the actual FedEx shipping cost (including extra insurance), 23% to labor, and 15% to supplies. I don't know if that's good or bad, but the breakdown might be useful to others. I just want to go on record that they did a great job in getting the china to me safely. I hope I don't have to ship anything like that again, but if I do, I'll be looking for help from Mailbox Seattle. read more

I love this place. I've used them on several occasions over the last few years and every time their customer service is excellent--they treat me as if I was a friend coming over for a visit. Typically I pack my own packages but with the crunch of the holidays, I didn't have time to find a box, buy tape, etc. So today I asked them to do it--so fast, so easy, and very affordable. And the wait is typically very short, if any (today there was no wait). Definitely recommend The Mailbox. read more

Went in with 5 packages to ship. The man who helped me packaged everything extremely well, was super nice and fast. I was out of there in like 20 minutes. read more

I have been with The Mailbox Seattle at 300 Lenora Street Seattle WA 98121since 2020. I rented a box from them for the last 4 years. I have had my mail forwarded several times and I have always gotten excellent service. There was never a problem with my mail. I love everyone here! Whatever I needed the staff helped me!!! Awesome and helpful staff! I have moved out of state now and I will miss everyone here in Seattle. Blessings to you at The Mailbox. Thank for excellent service and kindness! Best Regard Kristine Adams read more

Highly recommend The Mailbox Seattle for your business shipping and printing needs. Convenient downtown location? Check! Friendly and knowledgeable staff? Check! Super professional, prompt and business friendly? Check! They are doing a last-minute end-of-day print job for me now and will have it overnighted to our client by tomorrow. All confirmations, tracking info, and receipts will be emailed to me and they can charge to the business card on-file. Amazing. Thank you, The Mailbox Seattle, you rock! read more

I have always had a positive experience here. I mostly drop packages off with prepaid labels, but during the last holiday I did ship some gifts. The staff and owner, Margaret, have always been nice. I am a local , and know that everyone in the area appreciates her as well. The negative reviews here are from people out of town, I've noticed. And since when is having "no attitude" a bad thing? You shouldn't hesitate coming here for friendly service and a knowledgeable staff for specific information like carrier pickup schedules. read more

Amazing place with super helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommend. They will go out of their way to help you.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location. However, Check USPS for flat rate boxes because it can add up really fast when you ship out of your own box. Not sure if you can use the flat rate box here? But if just want to ship something fast and you're nearby, I would support this shop! read more

It is so refreshing to know excellent customer service still exists! I had the most pleasant interaction today with Margaret. She is just the most delightful human, I walked away from our interaction with a big smile on my face. This place is honestly so wonderful. Just visiting here is a good excuse to mail a loved one something. Everyone here is always so nice. read more

Daniel saved my life! I need to notarize forms for work and Daniel took care of everything! Very knowledgeable and professional! I definitely recommend his store and notary services! read more

I've been renting a box from this company for a year and a half (since I moved to Seattle). I've used private mailbox companies for, like, 25 years in Chicago and then San Diego before moving to Seattle. In a nutshell, this company, under the leadership of Margaret, is absolutely the best one I've ever used. I love the staff and Margaret ALWAYS remembers me, even if I haven't seen her personally in months and she is so sweet and nice, what costumer service SHOULD be! They text me every time I receive a package (I'm sure other companies do this now but no previous company I used did. I rarely post reviews but I felt the need because we live in a world that rarely acknowledges the good and always the bad! So kudos to Margaret and The Mailbox Seattle! And if you're a prospective customer reading this, look no further, use their services!! read more

Margaret was such a great help! She took my passport photo, stapled it to the application and helped me mail it.

Needed to get some documents notarized. This was the perfect place to get assistance. Margaret was super helpful and very friendly. Very efficient despite the fact we had several documents that needed to be notarized. They do a lot more out of their little shop. They are a great neighborhood resource with a neighborly style of doing business. read more

The service is a mess. Especially, an old lady is very rude and has no attitude. I will never ever go there and I will let my friends know about her personality read more

I almost quit having a box here when the previous owner was runnin' it. now, with the wonderful new owner,(Margaret), I can't imagine having a private mailbox anywhere else in the Seattle area! She is so very helpful and greets me with smiles! gives me courtesy text when packages I'm expecting arrive, and I love the fact that she supports local artisans by selling their goods at her shop. so if I need a last minute gift as I'm picking up or sending mail, it's always there for me! Thank you Margaret of 'The Mailbox' read more

The Mailbox Seattle - Best private mailbox center I've ever belonged to!!! - Mailbox Centers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I live near this shipping service, and it is wildly more convenient than any other shipping center I have found. I appreciate the attention to details, the help navigating most affordable options, and the fact that the team always seems to remember your name. Fantastic place to trust with shipping services, stamps, and any postage needs. read more

I'm writing to back up all the positive reviews. I went here for notary services, and The Mailbox was thorough and treated me with so much kindness. A-plus. read more

What fantastic service. First: I had a large shipment which wasn't ready until Labor Day! Naturally, almost no one was open. But the manager, Margaret, was working so her folks could have the day off. She was clear, efficient, and pleasant. The prices were more than competitive. And the store soundtrack was classic feel good oldies, which I really needed. Great service here! I encourage everyone to support this local business. read more

Friendly, fast, cool people. Margaret and her team are just a pleasure.

I recently needed to sent some stuff, everything seemed to be ok, people there was very helpful, (it was my first time sending boxes) I sent two boxes which needed to be Delivered together, on a specific date because the person picking the up was going to take them somewhere else (traveling out of state with the boxes) Unfortunately, the person that helped me out didn't get the address correctly, he didn't write the specific number to the mail box where I was supposed to be delivered, after I asked if he was 100% sure that I was not needed ( he told me it was ok not to write it). Long story short, my boxes arrived separately, on different days, the person that was supposed to pick them up couldn't pick them together, it had to pay extra because the address didn't have the box number (for each box), someone else has to pick the other box and send it to the person that was going to pick them up originally. (Also pay for that) So my experience was not pleasant at all, and it ended up being more expensive than it was supposed to be. read more

The staff is efficient, friendly, and extremely helpful. Anytime I need to ship something I bring it here. Special shoutout to Margaret for going above and beyond in helping me track down a month old receipt! read more

This place is right around the corner from my building and I'm so grateful for it! They definitely save me a trip to the dreadful post office and the owner is the sweetest lady. She's so friendly and always willing to help with different packing options. Writing a review of a shipping center doesn't seem like a super sexy one to do, but I was just there this morning to send off a package and was so happy that there wasn't a long line that usually haunts these types of businesses this time of year. The owner was so sweet and put holiday packaging tape all over my box for me to reinforce the packaging and also because it's the holidays! My experience definitely started this Monday off on the right foot. So much so that I came out of my review writing hibernation to let all the the Yelpers out there know about this great local biz. read more

These folks charge $3 per box for UPS drop-off. Ridiculous. I'd give them one star, except the gentleman proprietor was kind enough to hold the door for me as I staggered in under 30 lbs of packages. He was also kind enough to hold it for me when I took them right back out... Won't be returning. Edited to fix typo. read more

I haven't actually used their services yet, but I'm already impressed with The Mailbox Seattle. I was freaking out, trying to find a way to get some items shipped to Seattle for some colleagues who will be in town for a conference. I called their office and talked to a guy about my situation. He was extremely informative and helpful! The Will Call service that I was looking for is affordable, and I feel like my packages will be in the right hands until my colleagues can go and pick them up. I'm extremely impressed with this business and would definitely recommend them for anyone within (or outside of) the area. read more

Absolute the best customer service I have ever received. They were so incredibly friendly and helped me find the best rate and savings! I originally thought I needed to purchase a box to put my box into, and instead of pushing me to purchase an unnecessary box they kindly taped up my perfectly shippable box that I had already had my package in. I am now going to do all my shipping here! Such a wonderful and kind staff. read more

These guys are amazing! They take care of whatever I need when I go in, from making sure we have our packages properly packaged to making sure we have a tracking number for something I'm not even paying them for. The people who work here always remember who I am and they are super nice. So relieved to have this store so close to my apartment! read more

Watch the tax rate you are charged. I was told the tax wAs more than it is for Seattle so I told the young man I'd come back when Margaret who I think owns the place was there. I had been paying $3 for small and 4$ for large as a will call package fee as I had shipments sent there for years no problems...was never charged tax and paid cash. I go back and tell Margaret I was asked to pay more than the ten percent tax rate. She angrily said they don't program the machine. She gets snappy and yells she's been paying tax for me. I said I'm happy to pay the real rate but not inflated which is illegal. I'm not sure will call service counts for tax but never brought that up. (Services are not taxed in WA) she told me I wasn't welcome anymore...BTW the contract USPS on 5th near Wall St. is only $2 any size for will call! (The owner called me discourteous in a google review so the following is my update.) UPDATE all I did was say to the clerk I would come back as I suspected the tax rate was off and I hadn't been charged tax for years. I was never rude nor did I raise my voice. When I came back he was there as was Margaret and I told him I had verified it should be 10% and he said that was what he thought the rate was too. That's when Margaret lost her cool and vindictively cut me off. One interesting fact was I had to tell her one package was coming already but then I would send no more and when I paid she handed me a receipt for the first time ever and lo and behold it was 10% tax..this whole situation was sketch but it was the only time she acted strangely...usually was super friendly and pleasant. It is libel to say I wasn't courteous and is frankly projection. Watch out it's a litigious milieu ( A business that charges its customers too much sales tax could be opening itself up to a class-action lawsuit.) Karma's a bitch! You got caught and acted out is what happened plain and simple! --your nervous nature gave you away. I just checked with WA dept. of Revenue and your will call package receiving/storage service is not a taxable item so since you say you paid tax on my items you can get that back from them but we both know you did no such thing..shame on you Margaret. Show proof you paid tax on years of fees that were never to be charged tax and I will amend this review. read more

\[ ^ __ ^ ]/ I love this place! Yes it's true, the previous owner was very set on HIS ways, and yes, he was always moody, and yes he left for good. With that out of the way I can say that the new lady is awesome! and she rocks~ I think she should wear cape with the monograms "SF" because she is Super Friendly. I needed to mail some frozen food (empanadas) to Colorado so I came in and asked about how to do that. she explained the whole shabang and how I should use a styrofoam cooler inside a box and use a freezer gel pack instead of dry ice, because of air shipment restrictions and the fees that I would incurred had I used dry ice (extra $8!) I'm happy to say that the food arrived on time and thanks to the 1,000 "FRAGILE" stickers that she put on, intact! Way to go!!! read more

Polite and professional. I've been a client for 2 years. I go here for all my mailing needs.

Great place for greeting cards and for taking care of all your mailing needs! The owner is lovely and so helpful.

Easily the best experience I've ever had at a mailing place! I needed very specific stamps and they didn't have enough in stock. They drove around Seattle to find more of the stamps that I needed so that I could get my stuff mailed! The woman who works there also loves dogs which is a wonderful perk since i can bring my dogs in :). read more

This is the friendliest mailing center I've ever been to. Margaret is personable, energetic, and will do whatever it takes to help you with your postal needs. I walked in with a stack of important documents that I needed to mail to Los Angeles, she gave me multiple mailing options and gave me her recommendation on the most reliable carrier. She also went out of her way to find the cheapest mailing method. She is there for the costumer and not the type to try to make an extra buck off of you. read more

This place is fantastic. I've pretty much stopped going to the post office which usually always has a line and only one person working. Mailbox & gifts is small and cozy and has excellent customer service. They're friendly, fast, and they're honestly trying to help you have the best mailing experience out there whether it's cheaper prices, faster shipping, or heck even a free stamp if you forgot to stamp one of the cards in your stack that was going out. This place is awesome and highly recommended. read more
