Staff is always friendly and helpful, I honestly haven't had a bad interaction here. I'm always greeted and thanked. Returns are super easy whether it's Amazon or something else. Even during busy times the lines are usually pretty short, which is nice. read more

I usually don't have strong opinions about UPS Stores, but this location really stood out after the great experience I had on Thursday (4/16). Alexa helped me with my return, and she was incredibly friendly and helpful. Truly excellent customer service. They're lucky to have her! read more

The UPS Store - Mailbox Centers Near Me - Oakland, California

See all

The service is reasonable at this store but customer is right is not part of their operation. I always end up something extra, like when I return shipments to Amazon, they want bag it in extra box.. when they make you print and it doesn't look good you end up paying for the revised print... Those small thing tickle me in wrong way to see if I want give my business to them or UPS store next door in Montclair read more

I used to love this place. There is a young man two ladies, and they all worked so efficiently and fast all the time. When you walk in the store the first thing they would do is greet you and be friendly and smile. A few months back this new lady moved in named Evelyn. Ever since then there is this stressed look on all the employees. They don't greet the customers, they don't smile they give this look of frustration. Evelyn is one of the worst I have ever seen in Customer Service. She is hot and cold, hot and cold. one second she'll say oh you can come here, next second she'll snap at you, saying why can't you use that machine over there? She's just full of ego, anger, frustration. Ever since she came, the rest of them are not nice as well except the boy over there. He still seems to be soft and nice. There is some work dynamic that needs to change here. Maybe she does the same thing to the employees over there. I don't know if she is a manager or not but ever since she came the whole dynamic the friendliness of the staff helpfulness of the staff everything is gone. I just hate going to the store anymore. I know she's going to be more vindictive after this post, but I could care less. This need to be pointed out for the sanity of the people who visit there as well as the sanity of the people who work with her. read more

Visiting this UPS location is always such a pleasant experience. The staff are friendly, efficient, and speedy. I have printed, notarised, and shipped so many things here, and there has never been a single issue. 11/10 would recommend giving them your business. read more

Went in today 8/06/25 @12:32pm.... The person working was not helpful at all, I was trying to return a item but she pointed to the Kios with was not working at the time. The worker just watched me not moving at all and the other worker was busy with another client, other customers asked her why is not helping before she assisted. This is not good customers service or the UPS brand.... read more

This UPS store is in a great location. The store is located in an outdoor mini mall with a Safeway, Peet's, Jamba Juice, a few restaurants, a liquor market & CVS. There is a large parking lot and you can usually get parking up front or worst case scenario a short walk away. This location is does not usually have a big line, most often I can walk in and straight up to the counter, which is great!! As for the employees; they are always friendly, helpful and efficient. Honestly this is my favorite UPS store location and it's awesome that it is so close to my house. read more

The owner is so difficult! Amazon gives us varying directions, sometimes they want the box seal other times they don't want the item in the box at all. The owner argues and pontificates about rules that don't apply to the various instructions from Amazon. I've been to many other UPS stores and they don't hassle us like this one does. PS: She is so afraid to use any of her tape, it's bizarre!!! read more

Nice friendly staff it's in Oakland it the better part . They are quick fast and friendly I had got some cards laminated

The staff here are all so very awesome! JP has a clean, organized. Welcoming store. Jayson, Jason,Cheyenne, Shirley and of course Evelyn and the rest of the crew that works there are so friendly. Appreciate you all. 5 read more

Good for quick package drop off, not for Notary Services. Poor customer service for Notary Public services. I made an appointment for notary services but they weren't ready at the time of the appointment. I had to wait about 20-25 minutes until they were done helping all other customers dropping off packages (which was a lot - they were busy) until they helped me. I'm unclear why they take on-line appointments when it was clearly a lower priority, even with three people behind the counter. When I asked why I had to wait on the side while they helped everyone else, the person didn't seem that concerned about it. I've been using this place as my regular UPS spot several times a month for about 4+ years and it's definitely good for quick package drop-off. The staff are generally friendly and helpful but I think I'll look for another store. read more

This UPS store is a neighborhood gem. We're so glad they're here, and we appreciate the staff for all of their hard work! Yes, it gets busy around all the obvious peak times, but the staff is always doing their absolute best to keep up with people and move everyone through. The neighborhood appreciates you! read more

I go to this place all the time and service is great! I was thinking about writing a great review about them. But there's this Hispanic lady (I'm sorry to identify her by her race) who brush her hair backwards- every time she's there her manner is curt and service is haphazard...The rest of the folks are super nice! She was soo rude to me today..Does she work on Wed evening?! I hope the management notices. She's a store manager or something. I hope management reads this review & coach her. If the behavior is this bad, it'd be hard for me to come back to this store.. read more

Their quoted price included an extra $100 charge for insuring the value of my shipment without mentioning that it could be shipped without this extra insurance charge for around $15. I give them a three star rating because my previous visits at this office were for Happy Returns and they were always pleasant and efficient. read more

There is a very rude manager named JP that works at this location . Although he was communicating a rule that impeded my ability to pick up an important package , he did so very matter of factly with little empathy and even with an attitude . this was at 9 am in the morning . I dont think ive ever encountered someone so rude so early in the morning in an environment when customers like myself are concerned about getting packages . as a manager he should know to handle customers with more empathy and respect . its unfortunate read more

Evelyn was very helpful, friendly, and informative with shipping art a customer had purchased from me. Even though this store gets busy, the wait is never really long. read more

Amazing location, and the parking area can be a bit difficult but overall great. The staff is amazing especially Avril. She's amazing, I tend to be all over the place and she was very thoughtful and patient with me. Never eat a staff as friendly as she is. 100/10 lovely girl. read more

Manager was an absolute asshole. Not helpful whatsoever and said it's above my pay grade to speak with a nearby store who directed customers to ups. There is a way to speak with a customer and it's not to repeatedly say things are "above my pay grade" read more

Moved into the area , and great people and service here. It can get busy after 2pm. I have seen the line almost out the door. But you can tell they are hustling to try and get the line down. Workers are friendly, especially the Asian lady who I think is the manager. ( didn't get her name). But she acknowledges everyone, and thanks people for waiting... is trying to help everyone as quickly as possible. read more

One of the best UPS Store in Oakland. It's located next to a Peet's Coffee and a Safeway. The staff here were just excellent. Quick and always ready to provide phenomenal service. Fortunately for me, they're 10 minutes away from where I live so it's very convenient. Been here several times now and will definitely be using this location for all my UPS needs. Thank you to all the staff. You are all rock stars. Cheers! read more

Evelyn was the star of the show at the UPS store. Super nice peeps although they were super busy during my visit for notary services. Couldn't ask for more. I'll be back! read more

I brought in a simple package to return today and I was assisted by an employee named jason. He was very helpful and attentative while assisting other customers. I would definitely promote him to a managerial position if he is not already. read more

Evelyn is 5 out of 5 for friendliness, quick work, and welcoming. we needed a notary and she made it a good experience. this location is 100% recommend because of staff. read more

Always quick to take your item and get you on your way. No fuss. In and out. Even if there is a line always goes by fast.

This is the first UPS store that is being run the way I would run it. Accurate, excellent customer service, tastefully decorated, clean, safe (COVID safe), even the cards are cool! The folks working there are young and energetic but at the same time, super accurate and thoughtful. They always make sure I get a discount (like the AAA member one). Love them. If you want to go when there isn't a line, don't go after work because the line will be longest then. If you go on a Saturday, go early. Bonus - Peet's next door if you get a hankering for a coffee! And a liquor store on the other, in case you need to relax and eventually there will be a Jamba Juice there too. Nice to have a competent and fast shipping store so close to home! Thanks guys!!! read more

Best staff! Love this place Evelyn is so kind and helpful and thoughtful. Thank you!

****PS... not only is Jacinto rude but he threatened me after i published the below review so I decided to update it to include what happened after he apparently read what I wrote! As I was pulling out of the store parking lot, Jacinto was headed to dump the trash and he saw me and yelled as i drove off ..."oh yeah thanks for that review yeah I saw that...." and he gave me this weird smirk. What a wack job! We will see how my mail services are impacted through the end of my agreement as his comment sounded like a promise of some sort of punishment he plans to inflict. His comments and the sarcastic threatening tone he used made me feel VERY uncomfortable and unsafe and I WILL be filing an official complaint at the highest level of the UPS Store/Mailbox Etc. franchisee management levels! NO customer, of ANY kind should ever experience this level of toxicity! #firejacinto or boycott #upsredwood Original Review: My experience at this UPS store location has been subpar. I opened a box there when they first opened in summer 2020 and have patiently dealt with the constant long lines and lack of genuine customer service. However, two incidents have peaked my concern: #1 The store manager, Jacinto, relayed to me when I inquired about the boarding up of the store windows that they had been the target of "protestors" and as a result was going to put a "Black Lives Matter" sign in their window ONLY to hopefully deter would be vandals and NOT in the authentic interest of the cause the sign represents. #2 I received notification that two packages from Amazon were delivered to my box, however, upon my arrival to pick them up, my packages could not be found and Jacinto impatiently brushed me off and told me him and his staff were "too busy" to look into it (though there was only one other customer in the store at the time, a white male) and I should "just call Amazon because the UPS store is not responsible for for lost or damaged packages per my box agreement". Talk about the lack of concern or empathy for a paying customer! So, I called Amazon just to be sure, because hey, anything can happen in the world of shipping these days. I spoke to an Amazon rep while still in the UPS store and he verified that the packages had been delivered this day and a UPS Store employee named "Jason" received the delivery. Upon my relaying the information to Jacinto and inquiring about the worker named "Jason" - Jacinto became hesitant to confirm whether Jason was an employee. He eventually did then told me "I'll look into and get back to you tomorrow thank you for coming in goodbye" as if to dismiss me! There was no kind of acknowledgement like a normal human being. He could've said something like "hmm ma'am, this is strange because we do have a Jason here but no more packages scanned in for you at this time. Can you give me some time to research this? Let me talk to Jason tomorrow and see what may have happened. I'm sorry for the inconvenience and the wasted trip. May I get back to you tomorrow when I have more information so you don't make another unnecessary trip. Again my apologies". IT COULD HAVE BEEN THAT SIMPLE. But politeness and kindness are not in this guy's repertoire - and according to some of the other reviews, this is not just MY experience! He also berates and belittles employees, which I have also witnessed. It's his attitude and his tone, which is short, curt and sprinkled with sarcastic, condescending annoyance. He must have a family tie to this store because I don't know how he gets away with treating employees and customers this way! I've noticed him treat other customers in a rude manner, particularly black females while at the same time I've witnessed him go out of his way to be cordial to white, male customers. Yes, I've stood in line long enough over the past several months to witness many of his interactions with customers and staff. Granted, they are busy, but there is no excuse for his lack of professionalism. After this horrible interaction, I asked Jacinto for his supervisors' contact information and he brushed me off again stating with a scowl, "I'll let her know thanks for coming in goodbye". He did tell me her name was "Shirley" and then said with an eye roll "only I can contact her". Here's the deal: If you are looking to have your personal and business needs met in a nice, professional, welcoming, organized manner, I highly suggest looking elsewhere. Life is too short and commerce choices too aplenty to be subjected to such low class behavior by a disgruntled, immature being calling himself Jacinto. And on top of that, the store in its current state is overcrowded (line is usually out of the door and no systems are in place to streamline the handling of transaction types...I often wait 15 mins or more just to pick up a package) and the staff, namely Jacinto, is rude to customers, particularly of the non-caucasian kind! We will see if my packages ever arrive or if "Shirley" ever calls! read more

The UPS Store - Store front - Mailbox Centers Near Me - Oakland, California

amazing place to drop off packages! love this UPS. Staff are friendly, always helpful, and make running errands easy!!

I had to go in to ship off some packages on Friday morning. There were two people ahead of me. The person at the front of the line was a complete Karen. She had a ton of shoes that she was returning, it was such a disorganized mess and she was clearly not ready to do this at all. All the while Karen was on the phone complaining to another company and actually said, "I'd like to speak to your manager" to the person in the phone. Kim, was the poor girl behind the counter who had to deal with this person. Kim handled this woman beautifully. The person kept ordering Kim around trying to tell her how to do her job. Kim didn't falter at all. She smiled and took all of the this woman's crap. Karen finally left and the line was moving again! It was my turn and I had several packages to ship. Kim was amazing! She found me the best prices for what I needed. She was friendly and very engaging. I'm sorry she had to deal with a Karen, but I was so happy to work with her! Great job, Kim!! read more

I love how convenient this location is. Their service is quick n easy. Even if there're new employees, they don't say "I don't know" to answers of questions. They go out of their way to ask their coworkers or managers if they need help. I really appreciate that, especially in a busy setting at the post office. read more

Evelyn at the UPS store on Redwood Road in Oakland was outstanding! I went to her to have a document notarized. She noticed that I also had Amazon items to return and took care of those for me at the same time. Evelyn was efficient and personable during the entire transaction. Thank you Evelyn for showing me that customer service is not a thing of the past! read more

What I love about this place is I can get in and out. Not because it isn't busy but because the staff works fast.

Will be back for all shipping needs for sure. read more
