They were very helpful and easy to communicate with. We needed to store dorm room things between summer school and the start of the school year. We did not need a full storage facility and it was not for a long amount of time so it was a bit of a dilemma. Not only did they store the boxes and bags but they also provided van service to pick up and drop off right in front of the dorm. It was easy to buy an extra box and wrapping that we ended up needing as well. Would definitely recommend. read more

I stopped at this UPS Store to drop off a small Amazon return -- the box wasn't even 4 inches long. The woman behind the counter told me I'd need to tape it myself next time, which I appreciated hearing. But then she insisted I had to buy an entire roll of tape for $4.99 because "they don't have any tape." Clearly, they did -- I could see it right behind the counter. I explained that I'm currently out of work and just needed six inches of tape to seal the box, but she didn't care. I've never experienced such a lack of basic kindness or customer service over something so small. UPS should train staff to show a little compassion, especially for people just trying to make a simple return. I left feeling disrespected and taken advantage of , all over a few inches of tape. read more

Do NOT use their mailbox service. The staff misplaced my packages and then did not believe me that I hadn't already picked them up. They did everything they could to get me to just leave and only when I wouldn't did they actually look for them and then sure enough there they were. It's one thing to operate a disorganized business. It's quite another to fail to own up to your own mistakes and instead call your customer a liar. read more

The UPS Store - Shipping Centers Near Me - New Haven, Connecticut

Im so glad I found this UPS store to get passport photos. Super convenient, available parking and great customer service. The store was busy with customers coming in the front and back doors. The gentlemen were welcoming, kind and informative. I was impressed with their multitasking multiple customers, working hard to provide timely service to everyone. Great place! Thank you for all your help and kindness. read more

Gilbert was amazing. Great customer service, quick, and efficient. Highly recommended location.

The woman works at the parking lots side counter is so knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. She helps me decide what's best to mail my papers, and let me to decide my options without rushing me like you would have at other normal mailing services. Wonderful place to do mailing services with! read more

Exemplary work and care taking care of shipping my family's antiques. Professional / Communicative / AFFORDABLE!! Cannot recommend this company highly enough. read more

The laziest people in the town. They never tried to deliver. If you use their service you will frequently receive "we tried to deliver," yet they never. read more

Excellent service. Shipping was easy. Things arrived on the earliest day of the estimate. Would definitely use them again

I shipped a package home from this location, only to arrive at home and realize that an item I thought I had sent back was not in the package. I turned my house upside down looking for the item, and realized that the error must have happened at this shipping location--which was true. I called the location, described the item, and sure enough, they found it, still sitting in their packing area. I will say they were kind enough to ship it to me, but this should not have happened in the first place??? Now I'm just hoping that there aren't other items I'm forgetting that I "shipped" sitting behind the counter in New Haven. read more

Minny needs some additional training before interacting with customers. She was extremely rude and wanted to exert her control on customers. Hopefully I won't have to interact with her ever again! Manjit, the store owner, is lovely. read more

I had a wonderful experience here. It was my first time shipping boxes cross-country and I felt so generously helped every step of the way through. Manjit Singh was excellent and he guided me through the process over the phone and in store, helping me to find the cheapest option and re-box my boxes. read more

I hardly got my package on time. The delivery is always delaying. The store is closing early. I'll only use ups if I have no choice.........

I went early in the morning to drop off my box, and the service was terrible. Cashier was very impolite.

Would have given one star but the service was good. Note to management: employees should not comment on a customer's physical appearance when they are just dropping off a package. I will NOT be returning :( read more

Went to this store to have an item returned to Amazon and was told that it would cost $5.31 for them to copy the return label. Amazon's site states that "The UPS store will pack, label and ship your return for free." "You do not need to package your return or print a shipping label". This store does not honor that! On a separate occasion I took a package to this store asking that it be returned to the sender because I was refusing the delivery. The older man in the store stated he could not do it/did not know what to do with it. I explained the process to him. Although he took the package, he apparently did not indicate that the box should be returned to the sender. So, the next day the box was at my door. I drove to the UPS store in Orange and the rep there took the box, labeled it appropriately and the process took about two minutes. No problem and no pretense of ignorance in Orange. read more

This store is excellent. Management does a great job treating everyone with calm courtesy. The best experience of all the UPs stores I have visited. read more

DON'T GO!!!!! Be really really careful. They have a secret business model that wants you to purchase their box, for me, it's 50 dollars extra cost without paying attention and running out of time because of the flight. They are trying to make money by damaging others. Those female employees are with unbearable RUDE ATTITUDE. REPEAT: SERVICE WITHOUT PROPER CONSENT, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, GTFO ATTITUDE A guy came to me and said my box was not sturdy and afraid my box is going to be damaged. He wants to move my box into another bigger box, a store box, I said ok because I was confused. But when I asked about the cost of the box, he said "WE CAN TALK ABOUT THIS LATER". I had a strange feeling of this is an unusual reply but I couldn't tell at the time. After that during checkout, the big-size female manager with black hair at the front wants to charge extra 50 dollars. I said why is there 50 dollar charge? Can you let me see the order breakdown? The female "manager" just reluctantly low screamed at me: this is for the packing fee, you can not see the breakdown. IT WILL COME OUT AFTER YOU PAID. Then I asked her a question, why can't I see the breakdown? why did the guy not want to tell me the cost of the "packing fee" when the guy "volunteered" to move my box into your own box? She screamed louder: You wanna ship or not? we can open these boxes and you can take your package away. Yeah, 50 dollars for 2 boxes without proper consent. If you have any questions, then GTFO Be really really careful about this store, and let the words spread. Worst UPS store I have been to in the U.S. They are trying to make money by damaging customers. read more

Scammed - I bought three rolls of bubble wrap, put them in my car, and then returned them a few days later without opening any of them (ended up not needing them after all). Clerk accused me of having somehow trimmed a foot off of one end of a roll then re-sealed it, then screamed at me like an insane person until I left the store. They assemble the bubble wrap rolls by hand; obviously this woman just screwed up and sold me a short roll (which is a problem in its own right), then was either too embarrassed to admit it or just angry I caught her stupid scam. Either way, ludicrous and petty behavior from a clerk. read more

Don't go to this location!!!!I dropped off a package and it did not get scanned correctly and got lost. When I went bank to find out where my package was they had no idea and did not help me try and find it. They gave me the phone number to the UPS hub in orange and told me to call. Where is the customer service? You go to UPS to have important items sent quickly. This package had vital federal docs. I will never use this location again nor UPS. To date 4 days later I still don't know where the package is. read more

The people that work at this location are very rude especially the manager , she also talk to her employees very rudely , this will be my last time giving them business, I would have gave no stars if it was possible! read more

Literally charged me $4.15 to put a piece of tape on a box to send back! Literally just a piece of tape!!! Horrible

I love the staff here. I am not sure if she is the owner or one of the owners, but the woman (or young woman) who takes lead with most transactions is great! She has an upbeat personality, she is knowledgeable about every transaction that I've seen, and she fixes/troubleshoots any issues that are going on in the store. The only problem is that there are staff in the store who hold-up lines by ringing up/processing transactions very slowly. I have visited this location for many months now and I've seen these staff here and they don't seem to get a handle on things. Either they are also in ownership of the location or they are family members, because they should have been let go by now... otherwise this location would be running much more smoothly (and I'd give it a 5)! read more

No one at front when I arrived to drop off a ready to go package. The man was very rude when he came out. Didn't respond to anything I said and when I said thank you, he grunted. Maybe he was having a bad day... I hope it gets better. I've had a good experience here the last time I was here, but might not return a third time. read more

It is so sad that in this age day and time store owners still treat people of color badly. Everytime I go in this store the woman looks at me and treat me like I am a criminal. At the end of the day you do not seperate the money you make according the the race of your customers. It is all GREEN! I have been in this store 3 times now and have been treated terrible and it's because of my skin color. It can't be because of the way I conduct myself because am a reasonably intelligent individual and am respectful to everyone. I use the store because it is convenient to go to however, I will not go back there anymore. You are individuals of color too! If you were in America during slavery you would have been a slave right along with my ancestors who built this country :) There are good and bad people in every race and you should not judge a person by their skin color. Instead treat ALL of your customers with dignity and respect! read more

They charge for everything here: $1 minimum charge for using their tape, for anything and everything. This specific UPS store. Try it and you'll know what i'm talking about. read more

This store is terrible! They charged me for a service that wasn't correct. Someone didn't log out of their computer system that charges you based on time. I explained to them multiple times that I was only there for a few minutes and not the posted time on the receipt. They proceeded to say that they gave me a discount in which seemed a bit odd because I ended paying almost double the amount that he originally stated to me! I will never return here again and I don't recommend no one else to go there. read more

THE GOOD: centrally-located with free parking in their own lot. THE BAD: expensive, limited hours, and no 24-hour access to your box. THE UGLY: it took them over 3 months to provide me with a key to my box! The staff kept promising that I'd get one, but had an excuse every time I came in. There was no excuse for this. read more

I purchased a P.O. Box for a year and the service is seamless. They are super accommodating of my many large packages and are very helpful if I need to ship things. They are honest about their rates and will tell you if it's cheaper to ship with the post office. Very friendly customer service and I will be a client as long as I reside near new haven. read more

This place is above average in many respects, and I desperately want to like it, but it just falls down in so many other ways that I find myself wondering why I'm using them again, sometimes. I've shipped thousands of dollars worth of dry ice shipments from UPS and FedEx stores all over the country and this is the only one where they positively insist on tearing my package open to inspect the dry ice amount, compromising the contents, and then want to charge me for resealing it. I know the dry ice limits and other shipping regulations better than they do, as evidenced by the fact that 3x now they've kept me waiting 15+ minutes to inquire about standard shipping items on a hotline as opposed to looking at the FAA website or other up to date resources. Every time I come in it's the same song and dance. It's also hard to believe they don't send these items regularly. There's no institutional memory here, and many of the younger employees aren't comfortable doing simple shipments. They often favor older male customers who are being difficult over other patrons who are waiting patiently and being decent - I've seen them lose business this way twice. This place is okay for what they do. Expect a wait, inconsistent service, and some frustration in dealing with them. Still, all of my packages have gotten through. read more

I go here every few weeks, mostly to ship items I'm returning, so I have no experience with actually paying for shipping at this store. Whenever I come they are always courteous and quick. I have no complaints! read more

This store is run by such nice people, they are truly concerned with giving great customer service. I had to ship a very large delicate family heirloom, and they took such good care to wrap it perfectly. I highly recommend this location. I have always had a good experience here, and they have free parking too. read more

I paid an extra dollar for a shipping label to return an item from Amazon because my printer was down. I was told on Amazon that I could simply show them the scan image in my phone and UPS would take care of it. First I went to the UPS counter in the Staples store in Middletown. They told me I would have to go to an "actual" UPS store. OK. So I happen to work near the UPS headquarters in North Haven. Would you believe that was also NOT a UPS "store???" Here I am doing a google search on UPS store locations in CT. What a REALLY stupid deal they have going. Forget about the wasted gas.. It would have been cheaper to send it via USPS! Never again! read more

This particular location DOES NOT OPEN ON TIME. I wait outside for over 30 mins for them to open. For a delivery service, misunderstanding your schedule is just unprofessional and ridiculous read more

Majit and his team of helpers at this UPS are some of the nicest, most helpful, and sincere people I've met! Additionally, I've found their Mailbox services very helpful and easy to use! I use this box as my primary mailing address, as it's easy, convenient, and safe! For shipping services - Anytime I've had to ship things out, or received them in, they have made it exceedingly easy! I love that they are close to the Yale campus, but have their own (free) parking, too! Thank you, "Majit," to you and your "family!" read more

Spend a great deal of time in here either shipping or picking up packages. Workers are great, nice, and very hard working particularly the wife/co-owner and a young man who seems to really enjoy his job. Free parking is a huge deal in the police state that New Haven is relative to parking. Yes, sometimes you have to wait because they can get busy yet more often than not the delay is a result of ill prepared and or simply inconsiderate customers who arrive with just an address and a ripped open package and expect magic to happen without delay and without additional cost. It's behavior that would get you thrown out of the USPS and yet this place, while certainly being a business, does everything possible to not inflict additional charges if it can. Without a doubt one of the best businesses in New Haven! read more

Beware the slow stupidity of the staff here. Everything happens in slow motion which isn't helped by the customers who show up with wrong addresses and not fully wrapped parcels. read more

I took my return Amazon package to this UPS store. My packaging was fine. But the guy behind the counter insisted I buy new packaging from his store. Insinuating that my packaging wasn't good enough. It was just a ploy to get me to spend extra money. Please beware! read more

I would give ZERO stars!!! Extortion of undisclosed fees to receive packages. No response from the owner. Typical rogue franchisee idiot He could care less!! Pathetic disgrace to the UPS brand read more

I have to say that every time I've had to use this UPS store I've gotten great service. I've shipped personally owned musical equipment of from hundreds to thousands of dollars worth and recently a Sony Professional camera worth 20K. The waits have been reasonable and the patient, thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly service they have provided has been a tremendous comfort when so much of your personal resources are on the line. Most recently, Mr. Singh took a great deal of time investing attention to my parcel resulting in the very secure and timely delivery of very valuable and fragile items. I can see that others have rated the store differently, but there reviews are completely inconsistent with my experience. I have always received competent and thoughtful service here otherwise I would go elsewhere! I trust these people and they have shown me nothing but consistent kindness and efficiency. Keep it up!!!! read more
