6:01 pm on December 12. They just closed the door despite the hours on here stated that they open from 8:30 am to 6:30 pm. Thanks yelp. I'll change the rating when they change their operation time on yelp. read more

Wanted to send a parcel to the east coast. Checked online for pricing should be around $13-$15 ground. At the store wast told $24 because east coast is so far and the package is nearly 5lb. I went to USPS instead, the package weighted 3lb and 10oz.... Sure I am not a regularly customer, don't have an account and didn't want to buy extra insurance, but still, please tune your scale or something. read more

GENERAL: * They scam you on box size trying to give you a larger box than you need then charging you extra for packing materials * If less than $10, they won't take your credit card IF BRINGING YOUR OWN PACKING SLIP: * They WILL NOT give you a confirmation of receipt, so you're essentially leaving the full value of your package in the trusting hands of a minimum wage teenager. If it disappears from the store, you will have no proof you left it there. It works like this despite the UPS website stating "GET A SIGNED RECEIPT FROM THE UPS STORE." * They will however let you right down the number on your own packing slip and keep it for future reference - gee thanks? IF GETTING A PACKING SLIP FROM THEM: * Watch when they weigh it, they'll change the weight manually (but trust them - wink wink)Shipping something expensive? DON'T BOTHER! read more

Really nice staff, and not a single person in line when I went! I made the vast mistake of first going to the Telegraph location, which is run by the laziest set of bimbos I've encountered in a long time. Their work mentality is summarized by: "when we bloody well feel like it." They have no consistent hours, opening, closing, and taking lunch--you guessed it--when they bloody well feel like it. Come to this one. Fun fact: each UPS is independently owned. These guys on Shattuck should stay in business. The other guys on Telegraph need to go!! read more

What a terrible customer service. In case the manager sees this: this customer rep is a middle aged Asian man working on April 13,2019 at 12:20 PM. He was downright abrasive and rude as if he's doing me a favor by printing my shipping tags. If you'd install a self service machine in your store, i'd gladly use it. Alas, i am stuck with this rude man. Btw, this was a quick Amazon return and he was not tasked to do something complicated. read more

It is not the store's fault they close at a certain time. Put on your big boy pants or skirt and figure it out on your own. For all y'all who complained about the time, you can shut up. I give you 5 stars for being an idiot. The dudes and gals who work here are cool and chill. I vouch for the good service they provide. They are nice and don't give you any bullshit. I mail things often and they have not disappointed me in anyway whatsoever. They are prompt and competent. Good attitude and willingness to make my shipping life easier, that is what they do. Y'all who complain about price and other stupid things, what do you want? Free shipment? Open 24/7 so your lazy ass can come at 10 PM? Seriously, STFU. read more

I always go to this particular UPS store because the manager is always so quick to help customers and the packages are always delivered as scheduled. Reading the reviews was kind of shocking and I have a hunch those that have good/excellent experiences just don't write anything because it's not their priority. Will be back! read more

Today I was excited and blessed to be able to come into this UPS store and meet with sales associate Tony who accommodated all my return back needs to Amazon, I am very grateful for such employees such as Tony who make my day so much more bright and easy to manage, this young gentleman took the time to even go the extra mile and help me package up my items that were set to be returned back to Amazon I just want to tell you thank you if I can give you 10 stars I would read more

I love UPS but this location particularly has a terrible customer service. I went in to ship my package to MAC cosmetic. What I usually do is to just hand a barcode on my phone to the staff. Today the two ladies there told me my barcode was expired and I would have to ask for a new one. I explained to them that was not possible I just got an email from UPS yesterday. She still went on and lied to me that usually the label has to be used in the same day with the day I received my email. I asked her do I have to request another label and wait another 2-3 business days?. She said yes and walked away to help the other client. The other lady was trying to say this has been happening the same to other customers. I said then something must be wrong with your scanner not my code. But she ignored and told me to get another label. The staff were not informative and helpless. Now that I walked in to the different location and was able to ship my package right away. They just scanned the barcode on my phone. Simple as it should be! read more

Worst UPS in this area. If you're a Cal student avoid this location at all cost (there's an Amazon store inside the MLK Student Union). I asked about the fees charged for minimal services, like tape $1 and printing labels $3+, and the clerk tells me how cheap the students at Cal are and how they want everything for free. Compared to other local UPS stores this one is absurd both in attitude and overpriced "services". Obviously smart savvy students will know that other locations don't stiff patrons for every single item and yes, ask for similar complimentary service. Foolish man (2/2/18 8:50am) didn't know he was griping to a Cal alum. He should have tried a more honest approach rather than blaming his bread and butter. Zero stars for lacking integrity. read more

Blech ... let me count the ways! Belligerent service is what you'll get on top of layers of ignorance. It's pretty amazing, really. If you're masochistic and really don't intend to ship anything, knock yourself out and go here. I'd rather be knocked out. (For great service & knowledgeable staff, try the UPS store on Solano Ave.! That place consistently delivers (so to speak). read more

I don't have a printer at home. Never have. And I use to live by a FedEx Office/Kinko's. If I needed to print a boarding pass, a groupon, or anything, I'd throw it on my usb stick, walk on down, pop it into the copy machine/printer and ten cents poorer I'd have my page. In contrast to the UPS store, the 13 pages I printed today cost me over $8. Sure, its a trivial point, but if they're going to overcharge on trivial items I'm not going to trust them handling anything else. read more

Costs $3 to "download" a label... the only explanation I can come up with is that they have WiFi from the dark ages, or they know they can screw you. FedEx 4eva read more

Disinterested staff, but they got the job done. Said I would get an email that day with my tracking number and I didn't. I had to go back the next day and ask for it, that's a pain. I've had much better service at other locations. It's on my walk to and from work, if it weren't I wouldn't go out of my way to use the place. read more

I run a small business (textbook sales over the web) and use these guys for all my continental US shipping. They're always courteous and friendly, and usually quite efficient. Never had the feeling they were trying to rip me off on anything. Also--and I don't know if this was a change "passed down from corporate" or their idea, but it's a welcome change--they recently started e-mailing me tracking numbers after I drop off a shipment, instead of me having to call like before...very convenient, I just copy and paste the numbers and e-mail them to my customers. read more

Solid, friendly staff. Knowledgeable and helpful. Reasonable prices. Great private mailbox service. http://www.theupsstorelocal.com/2998/ needs to update its hours to reflect the actual hours of the store. As posted, they are: http://i.imgur.com/tHTYNND.jpg read more

Came in earlier today to send off my old iPhone to Verizon & was met w/ a helpful UPS associate by the name of Blake. He was extremely helpful & advised me to take a picture so that I could track it. Thanks Blake read more

Admittedly, the first couple times I went here, I was shocked by the cost of shipping an item and appalled that I had to pay $5.00 to use their shipping address to receive a package. Now, I'm totally in shipping heaven with them. I have a mail box (with a street address, not a PO box) and I no longer worry about packages sitting on the doorstep at home waiting to be stolen. They know my name and even called me on Christmas eve to let me know that I received a package, in case it was a gift, and to let me know that they were closing early in case I needed to pick it up. Totally cool in my book. If I feel cranky or tired, the bright lights and high energy environment are a bit much, but the guys who work here (Jacob, Jeffrey and the guy who smokes outside with the dark hair) are welcome faces on the weird and windy avenue known as Shattuck. read more

Closed Taken over by the UPS store. Though, I secretly preferred the more neighborhoody feel of mail boxes,.... sigh. read more

That was the worst service I've ever gotten in any business. Rude and humiliating attitude!!! Do yourself a favor and Do not go to this location !!!! Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

BEWARE EVERYBODY in BERKELEY!!!!! these UPS store is the worst of worst store, the person who manage the place named KIYOSHI is so rude, bad attitude with everyone in the store, he didn't give me the tracking number immediately and he got upset because he has to close and taped the boxes , he argues with all the customers and always give a bad service to everyone who go to that store, UPS COMPANY should close that store because you are getting bad reputation because this ver bad customer person (KIYOSHI). So Students in Berkeley don't go to that store located in 2342 shattuck Ave. read more

I had to ship a tennis racket to Baltimore, Md. I walked in with a tennis racket and my wallet. They packed it up and shipped it out UPS ground. It cost $25 which I thought was kind of pricey --I don't ship things but I do know when I purchased the racket, they charged me $4.95 for shipping. The upshot was that I didn't have to do anything but fill out a couple short forms and give 'em some plastic. I give them 3 stars for the high price. The staff were friendly and helpful and the facility was clean. read more

The worst ups store ever!!!!! I would have given zero star but there is no options for that. This is the first time I reviewed on yelp, so raged. They didn't provide a tracking number for my tax forms, in which case tracking is important. Ended up sending a certified mail, which provides a tracking number that doesn't work, and extremely expensive. Do the Stables across the street, they do UPS shipping with a much better price and service. read more

This might be a seasonal review , but this UPS Store really sucked for me at Christmas time. Trying to mail my packages to my East Coast/Southern family of December 15th , I was prepared to pay but I don't think ten days from Christmas is cutting it super close. Guy there says no way it can make it ground , have to send it 2 day air , 50 dollars per package. Meanwhile , my brother and Dad sent packages to me that same day via USPS for around fourteen bucks , they got to me in plenty of time. I just feel like it was a messed up way to get more money out people during the holidays and that isn't too cool. read more

Extremely helpful and honest employees. Very clean, organized, efficient, and student friendly.

So, I didn't want to spend $40 to send 6 jars of jam to my sister-in-law in Paris via US Mail. In fact, that would have been another $40 to send another 6 jams to my in-laws in London. I thought and hoped that UPS might have some other amount that was more to my liking. Nope. It would have cost about $120! For just the package going to Paris! Not UPS' fault. US Mail no longer does surface mail. Although I didn't get my shipment mailed here, the clerk was very helpful. He even measured and weighed my product. And I agree with the Yelper who thought that this place was friendlier than the one in El Cerrito. I should have come to this place all along, instead. read more

I used this UPS Store for over 10 years and they were always great. I had a mailbox and shipped many packages from here. The owner Jeff is very accommodating and helpful and his staff over the years has been solid. They will leave packages in a secret cabinet for you after hours, and I've always been able to call and ask if a specific piece of mail was in yet. They even found a check I accidentally threw out in their recycle bin along with my junk mail, and they called me to let me know they saved it. Some folks complain that it cost more to ship UPS or Postal Service packages from a "UPS Store", and services like printing your UPS label cost $3, etc. Keep in mind that it might cost you a few bucks more, but you get way better customer service and you don't have to drive to Hegenberger to go to the main UPS location. You get what you are willing to pay for. I'm glad this store is open and Jeff and his staff do a great job. read more

Needed a Notary really fast. They were super efficient and helpful. And pricing was reasonable. Thanks guys

The employees here are always very friendly and very helpful, don't hesitate to ask them any questions, they always seem to point me in the right direction when I am looking to ship packages at the cheapest rate. Also, the shelves here are always fully stocked with shipping items, and it is very quick and easy to get your package assembled and prepared for shipment. read more

The UPS Store - All Your Packing Supply Needs In One Place :) - Shipping Centers Near Me - Berkeley, California

I had to write this review bc this place having only 3 stars is just wrong! This is my nearest UPS store and it is a ray of sunlight on the bleak area of Shattuck. This store is beautiful, quiet, always well lot and tidy. The people who work there are kind, calm, and very helpful. Always a great experience here.. And particularly when comparing to other similar stores, that means a lot. read more

Beware! I went to this UPS store and wanted to print a label they said $3.00 I said no so I called Best Buy they sent me an option where I can Send my package showing them a barcode in my cellphone (an option for those with no printers) so I showed them d barcode, the guy scanned my phone they created the label and the guy attached d label on my box and I left. Almost one week now, I'm trying to track my package it says label created but package is still waiting for UPS I'm like what???UPS created the label on the UPS store . wow! Where's my package? I just called bestbuy so they can locate the package for me, I don't like to deal with this UPS very dishonest don't trust this store read more

This place is the worst. Just left without buying anything. They will try to sell you stuff you don't want without telling you. Then they tell you the total to ship a small cd case domestically with no priority will cost $15. They will tell you that your package is inefficient for shipping and try to sell you other stuff. And when I told them I was shipping a video game system, I got a very sketchy vibe and thought they might steal it if I sent it there. Do not go here. Any hassle you get at USPS is well worth it to avoid these scumbag employees. read more

No doubt best customer service. Everyone is friendly and if you don't believe me just call them. They handle all my shipping, and printing needs. I also have a mailbox here I pay for once a year. I can access my box 24hrs a day which is great for my hours. read more

I've been to this store twice with packages that needed to be returned. I had all my labels and boxes, all I needed was for the store to tape them. When I requested they seal them, I'm informed they cannot unless I donate to the ACLU. I don't have anything against the ACLU but, I shouldn't be forced to donate. I would think if they cannot tape boxes, UPS would charge me (and others) a minimal fee to seal packages. Since it happened twice, I am curious if the store staff is using this pressure/influence to skim donations from the ACLU jar or from UPS- no proof of this but, it wouldn't surprise me. read more

Came in to return rental textbook. It was pretty quiet and fast. However, the guy working there couldn't print a receipt for my return package and just told me to take picture or reprint it from Amazon account (which is very weird in my opinion n I always get receipt at other UPS location). read more

Horrible Service, absolutely the worst service I've ever received, anytime, anywhere. CAUTION! Do NOT use them. I'm convinced that the guy, (who colors his hair Auburn) has suffered some mental trauma. That's the only explanation I can come up with. Here is my story: I walked in with returns to Amazon. Two identical items that were delivered the same day on the same order. He had attitude from the moment I approached with my packages. He asked me to distinguish between the two packages and continued to berate me for not being able to figure out which label goes with which package. My Amazon email certainly did not distinguish between them, which I told him, but he just went on and on. He muttered an arch warning, as though I would be smote with an Amazon thunderbolt if I put the label on the wrong one. It was bizarre. I got the feeling he didn't want to take the packages from me, but I persisted. His anger was way out of proportion. It's my package after all, I can deal with Amazon if something goes wrong, which I told him. He kept it up, until I snapped and called him a giant dick. Guess what? He smiled a little. It seems he enjoyed the verbal abuse. Go figure. He wouldn't give me his name when I asked, he said he was afraid of me. What!? I'm a less than five foot tall old woman! The older dude was not much better, yelling that it had been a long day. What weirdos!! Update: Amazon only received one of my packages. As I anticipated, this stupid fool deliberately screwed up my returns. I have no doubt that it was intentional. I called Amazon and they kindly offered to pay me anyway. I complained to Amazon as well as to the main UPS customer service. Please do NOT patronize this store, unless you can deal with ineptitude. This guy is a giant a$$ and a douchebag. Obviously he is unhappy with his life. read more

The worst UPS I have ever been. The ridiculous part is that the guy charged me $3 for the downloading fees as he "downloaded" a paper from my USB..wtf, that doesnt even take any internet connection. Anyway, the way they cheated ur money just make you sick. read more

Please update your business hours on the national page and on this yelp page according to your actual business hours. I sat outside this location like an idiot for 1/2 hour beginning at 8:30 AM on a Monday only to never see it open. Once 9 AM rolled around and no employee was in sight I was forced over to your other location on Telegraph, where the staff member was a complete asshole. It looks like people like this location better than the Telegraph location so please update your hours so we can all patronize this location and not the Telegraph location. read more

I have been coming to this store for years. Always professionally wrap my pro Audio gear for resale and have never had one complaint from one recipient. These are seriously picky people so it speaks to how well they get it done. I see some sour reviews on yelp here and cannot speak to them. Most seem miffed about a printing cost and then giving a one star review. I print all my own labels for returns so I don't really get it ! read more

Closes early, which is annoying when you have to make a trip out there and count on them being open in order to ship something on time.
