I had a package go missing 8-26-2026. I went to the Apple Valley Post Office arriving a little after 9:00 am. There were half a dozen customers in line ahead of me, but the wait was only about 5 minutes. After providing my name, address, and tracking #, I was told to check my mailbox again later that afternoon. Package arrived around 2:00 p.m.! I'm a senior citizen and have been to many post offices around the country. The folks running the service counter here in Apple Valley are second to none. Thank you. read more

I was treated w professionalism and speedy service. Love this post office. Anyone complaining should try to go to a post office in LA COUNTY. read more

This post office is not great. Hesperia office is so much better. I will drive to Hesperia any time I need anything from the counter. Today at my office our mail person left an entire set of cluster boxes open after he put the mail in. All the mail is there for the taking. I called the number listed for them and it just rings and rings and then makes a fax noise. So I guess there is nothing we can do about our mail being totally exposed. Seriously you need to do better. read more

I was in and out in no time. Service is helpful and quickly serviced. I recommend this location.

The usps reputation continues to be unacceptable. I have daily pick up scheduled for my home. Out of 6 days a week they only pick up 3-4 days (randomly. I came to speak to a manager. Was told there are three just behind a door. I'm still waiting 20 minutes later. Customer service is not a priority. So frustrated and annoyed read more

US Post Office - Just behind this wall is 3 managers that don't have time to speak to me - Post Offices Near Me - Apple Valley, California

I didn't get my mail today although the app says I did. So I call and the number rings a couple of times and then acts like it's a fax machine. This is why this office needs to just close down. Seriously we should have better service than this read more

5 employees in the back. 1 in the front with a full house. That's how they roll and they're strict in hiring so it's a wonder they're always so slow. read more

I cannot even believe what I have been through trying to get a certified letter from the IRS. They left a pink slip informing me that they could not reach me although I was home ALL DAY and NO ONE even tried to ring the doorbell, and could not leave it in my box. So I signed the paper, put it back in the box and it's 3 days later now and it's still there. I went online 2 days ago and rescheduled the letter to be delivered and it was all set for today, Friday, February 2nd, and I got not one, but 2 confirmation emails to that affect, and go to get the mail just now and NO LETTER FROM IRS. If I get a fine it's USPS's fault and you can pay the penalties. Can service be any worse? I think not. It's absolutely absurd how horrible this experience has been. Shame on you - no one there cares anymore and it's sad. Laura Francis 19616 Rolling Green Drive, Apple Valley, CA - check your records!! I'm ANGRY~ read more

Lines can be a bit long but they have the self service machine in the front which is awesome if you know how to use it. Big fan of it but still at times it's quicker to wait in line if you have a large item. read more

Worst post office North American Bar none. I will straight up avoid ordering specific products if I see they are sending through USPS. There's so much talk about saving the postal service but all it takes is ONE mediocre post office to make you hate them all. This one will make you want to vote out the entire USPS department. Aside from the obvious lack of customer service skills and courteousness. These guys just straight up DONT do their jobs. If your supposed to receive a package too large for your mailbox, forget. You won't see it. It's always held at the post office, they won't leave the vehicle to walk a package past any gates. They don't attempt to make ANY REDELIVERIES and even getting your package yourself is a nightmare. I had to show 2 different forms of ID and my social security card and a credit card to retrieve a package they almost returned to sender. I'm just done with this office, I would rather pay 2x as much more FedEx or UPS for half the service and i would still be getting away with murder. The USPS here is literally just a scam. When you pay people to do something and they just flat out don't do it and subsequently lie and attempt to cover up their efforts it's no longer negligence it's just fraud. I have serious concerns about the activities of the supervisors and their employees at this location. There is no other excuse or reason for such horrible productivity. Someone is doing a lot of drugs or stealing money. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. Literally the worst post office I have ever been to. You have people waiting in line for an hour just to get a package. Every single time I come in I'm waiting at least 30 mins and there's always an issue. read more

The service was fine. The man absolutely handled everything that I needed. My only request is that they have pushbutton doors to activate because I am in a wheelchair and they were hard to open. I had to have a man hold The door is open for me. But otherwise it was nice. read more

Our current female carrier (name starts with K) on the Tussing Ranch area route is a heavy smoker. She stops and smokes near the boxes and I can smell smoke in my box when I grab my mail. What is sad is that she has issues with everyone on the route. I tried to be nice and she has an attitude and it is everyone else's fault and everyone on the route is "trying to threaten her". I have a brother with mental illness. She reminds me of my brother. Her mistakes are never her fault and the attitude at the post office is not one of Customer Service, but one of a lackadaisical demeanor. I miss my retired carrier on this route named Frank. He had self-respect and we respected him. read more

How often does one come across a preteen who is asking for a Bible??? I was visiting my mom in Apple Valley and could have waited to mail The Action Bible upon my return to the South Bay. However, in a flurry of to-do's, I made a last-minute decision to send it earlier. The postal worker who assisted me was very patient as he calmly explained the different packaging options, bubble wrap, and methods of sealing & securing the box. He was kind and really made an impression on my boyfriend and me so, when I was made aware that I could share my experience, I made sure to save the receipt so I could leave a positive review about the swift yet smooth process I had at this particular post office. The postal worker's name is Robert and the receipt indicates a "Clerk #4" on it. I am very grateful to have been helped in such a gracious, thorough, and peaceful manner, and hope that Robert will get the utmost praise and recognition that he deserves! read more

This USPS has to be the worst one. And that's not terribly hard to be since the USPS is a great example of a horribly run government agency. But it seems like they don't even try or care at this location. If you have mail with an important document that clearly says DO NOT BEND, it will still get stuffed in your mailbox. FOLDED IN HALF. Need your mail forwarded? Maybe some will get to your new address. Don't count on all of it though. I even know many businesses who go out of their way to use the Victorville Post Office, so they can avoid AV altogether. Sad. read more

Are the doors unlocked for the public to check there PO box on sundays.. or are the front doors locked and the post office just not open at all on Sundays read more

We have lived in Apple Valley for a very long time and the service from this post office has gotten worse. They have often lost our mail, today they dropped off my mail in my mailbox but didn't pick up the stuff I had going out. Not sure why the mail carrier would do that. I have been waiting for packages before and was notified that it was delivered. I go to my mailbox and there's one of those brown slips that said they tried to deliver but I wasn't home and I knew that was a lie because I was at home waiting for it. Maybe they are short staffed but either way it's unacceptable read more

We always receive other peoples Mail !! And being a good neighbor I always return it! My package this time was delivered to the wrong address!!! I lost out a lot of money $$ Because of the foolishness of the mailman who always has problems delivering !! I'm beyond disappointed and fearful of ordering anything online read more

I find myself coming here more often now. Mainly because the mail box provided by them has been getting broken into and they keep mickey mousing it trying to fix it, when it really needs to be replaced. This is the fourth time this year and now it has been more then two months and still no replacement. At least half of our neighbors have bought their own box now and well so have I, just need to install. Is very frustrating that they have taken so long to even do anything about it. Even after the entire side of our street signed a petition for it to get replaces and we would cover the cost of the box. read more

This office has lost 2 of my packages, when asked i was told they can't help me. Beyond rhat the staff is less then helpful with no sense of urgency and at times have been outright rude seeming bothered by doing the minimal expectations of there job. I guess being union exempts you from providing decent customer service. read more

packages that are supposed to be delivered right now are being returned to the post office as "undeliverable " and "unable to secure" . the post office had zero problems delivering my stuff to my front porch when it was summertime and not raining but now all of a sudden a covered front porch with columns to hide packages behind isn't good enough now that it is raining . more like they can't be bothered to get out of their truck. this is why I try not to have ANYTHING delivered USPS . total incompetence read more

ZERO STARS if I could. This place is the absolute worst post office ever. If you're lucky and have more than one person working in the entire place, they are too lazy to care about their job and always rude. Always a long line out the door so be prepared to wait over an hour. The boxes are NEVER stocked so it's not like you can use self-service either. The government should let it be privatized and then maybe people would care enough to do their jobs. read more

no one ever called me back, i have left 6 message. they said YOU WON'T LOSE YOUR PLACE IN LINE -not true. i filled out my paperwork for change of address and you said it was good and now you send me a letter that said you don't acce[t it because it is a business address. Are you kidding me? I have had 30 business's over the last 45 years and have always had mail sent to me home. what is different read more

This was our first "mailbox" for 3 months before moving into our new home. The lines are out the door every day but if you are lucky they open a counter for pick up only which is all we needed. The staff is nice, we know the whole team by now, just overworked.Once its your turn it goes quickly and efficiently, thats pretty much all you can ask for. read more

The worst carriers I've ever seen, they are liars and too damn lazy to get out of the truck and ring the bell provided for them! I wish I didn't have to deal with this post office, three days in a row the carrier says that my package can not be delivered due to not having access, bullshit. I have watched them drive by for 3 days then lie that they made an attempt to deliver and have the nerves to post a time to! This is unacceptable job performance period! read more

I can't believe the unprofessional way this location is run!!! They deserve 0 stars! First off, it took me forever to find a direct number for the Apple Valley post office that works, but if anyone else wants it here it is: 760-247-8511 or 760-247-4841. Bottom line is they will lie to cover up their mistakes. They don't do what they say they will do. They don't care, they don't try, and they obviously do not have the skills or professionalism to be trusted to do the job they are tasked to do. They are like a bunch of disrespectful and dishonest kids that need a good parent to hold them accountable and lay out some consequences. Here is how I have learned this.... 6 months ago, my key stopped working on my mailbox. I kept calling in and was told there must be too much mail inside for the lock to turn. I didn't want to break the key so they said they would have the mail carrier check it. They said they would call back, they never did. When I called back to follow up, they would put me on hold for up to 45 minutes or until I hung up. Then they said they needed to talk directly to the mail carrier when she came in, and somehow every time I called she "just left the building", even when I called at the exact time they told me to, somehow I always "Just missed her". I couldn't understand why they couldn't just call her, leave her a note, an email, or anything! Then they changed the story to say she was a separate contractor and that is why they couldn't get any communication to her. Unbelievable!!! So after being strung along for a long time by Eddie, I asked to talk to a Supervisor. First they were never available either, but finally I spoke to James who was just as bad. Weeks turned into months. They kept telling me they were doing something to get my mailbox fixed, only I would later find out that they never did. Eventually I spoke to another supervisor named Raphael who finally admitted that they had made a mistake and given my mailbox to someone else!!!! What?!?! And that is why my key didn't work!!!!! I couldn't believe that they had been intentionally lying to me this whole time!!!!!!! They should fire everyone in there who is so completely incompetent and hire people who have some sense of decency, honesty and accountability! Finally Raphael promised that he would get the locksmith to change the key on another mailbox that was not being used so I could get this other one. We agreed on a day and time for me to meet him at the post office so I could pick up this new key. I was out of town at the time but decided I really wanted to get this finally resolved so I drove there from 2 hours away only to find out that Raphael didn't bother to go to work that day. Neither did the postmaster. So when the locksmith came it, there was no note or instructions to fix the lock and get me a key, so he left!!! Nobody bothered to call and let me know. I wasted over 4 hours on the road just to be basically stood up. I was done being polite at this point. I spoke to Eddie that day and demanded to have the number of some sort of management over their location. He said he didn't know any names or numbers or contact information of anyone above him, nor did he know where to find it. I know this is impossible. I asked him "so if your building was on fire, who higher up would you call? He showed his true lack of decency when he smugly replied, "I would call a fireman". Finally he gave me the name of the area Manager, Frank Lemus, but wouldn't give me any way to contact him, and said he would be too busy to talk to me anyway because he oversees 30 - 35 locations. Mr. Lemus, if you see this, please get in contact with me. You need to know what is happening at the Apple Valley Post office. If this is the way a government agency is run with our tax dollars, it is past time to fire everyone there and hire new people who know to run a real business. So at this point, it has been 6 months. My mailbox that was given away has not been returned to me, nor do I have a new one. I have spent countless hours on the phone trying to get this resolved and all I have gotten in return is extreme frustration. Rafael and James both have promised me that they would give me a replacement mailbox but today they stood me up AGAIN! When I call, they let the phones just ring and ring. I have contacted the Consumer Affairs Department that oversees the post office to let them know of this situation. If it helps anyone else, here is their phone number: (858) 674-2670. My advice is to avoid this post office at all costs. (the one in Lucerne at 6054 E. Highway 20 is one that is excellent) If you have any problems with the Apple Valley Post Office, which I am sure you will, don't waste your time trying to work it out with them. Go to their Consumer Affairs Department (their phone number is above), and maybe try to contact the Area Manager Frank Lemus. read more

If I could give this a ZERO, I would! Apple Valley Post Office is among the MOST inept in the nation. Just received notification that a small parcel was undeliverable due to "location being inaccessible". Interesting, as I have NO FENCING and the dumbass carrier merely had to A) Deposit said parcel in mailbox or B) Get off their fat ass and ring the doorbell. I did NOT physically move my house! To add insult to injury, the US Postal Service (Nationally) is NOT staffing phones. The local post office will NEVER answer their phone. Incidentally, the local number (pointless, I know) is 760-247-0640. Seriously......WTF??? read more

One word: INCOMPETENT. I was supposed to receive a package from oldnavy on Sunday Oct. 30. The tracking states that a delivery was attempted and then forwarded. I have no forwarding address. I spoke with a local usps manager Nov. 1 at 12pm, who said she would speak with the carrier to find out what happened. Now the tracking says my package was returned to sender on Nov. 1 at 4:47pm, after I spoke with the manager. The items are now out of stock on oldnavy. Spoke with USPS chat, who stated "Says it was forwarded in error by the carrier and ultimately returned because there is no forwarding order on file for you. It was returned before the manager was able to locate it. Regrettably, there's no way to stop the return now." Absolutely unacceptable. read more

"Tried to deliver"...bs , I own a retail store that was open so no you didn't. "Rescheduled delivery "...no you didn't , never showed up or tried to show up ...once again retail store open all day. "Left at location"...NO YOU DIDN'T WE WERE CLOSED THAT DAY. Hire some competent people Ppplllleeeaaassseeee!!!!!! read more

I didn't know about the practice of UPS & FedEx delivering packages to the local Post Office for final delivery when they are small enough to fit in your post box. I don't want the Post office handling my packages they must be stealing them because a few weeks ago I lost three separate packages in a row...yes in a row Thursday, Friday & Saturday they said they delivered to me. Thursday was a package I was returning it's still noted as being in the Post Office but they can't find it. I think I am going to file a complaint with them then follow up with a police report. What happened to the Post Office we used to trust who would deliver in Rain, Sleet & Snow. Well it's not Apple Valley Post Office, read more

They need some serious help here!!! I am CONSTANTLY getting other people's mail in my PO Box, and not just similar or close by numbers... but sometimes WAY off.. like how TF does that happen? I cringe when a family member says they've sent a card with cash or a check in it. If you have packages delivered, you sometimes either get a slip in your mailbox or a key to one of the lockers that they'll place your package in. Well that system is also flawed!!! I've had lost packages, packages delivered to the wrong box. Packages that show delivered but never were. And the best part about it... the staff could give a fu@k!!! THEY DON'T CARE you're out the money, they don't care that Christmas gift you ordered for your kid got given to someone else by mistake... they just don't effing care. The post master once wrote me a letter saying they "lost my package" so I could give it to the eBay seller I purchased an item from in order for that seller to send me out another item, you know what that eBay seller said??? "Yeah right, not my problem!" And he was right... why the heck should the seller have to eat the cost of a package that US Postal ADMITTED to losing (delivered to wrong person). UGH, so disgusted with all of them. Every last person I've ever spoke to there is rude and a complete idiot. Couldn't find a smart or compassionate person there to save your life. read more

Losing my mail!!! My mail is going to another address. Where? I don't know. That address that is receiving my mail is returning my mail to the post office but not all of it. I'm missing mail and this is unacceptable. read more

In my opinion, the usps is still the worst mail carrier ever! They just don't seem to care about improving! I avoid ordering online if it's going to be delivered by the usps. The usps should be paying us because half the time we are delivering packages/mail that we're delivered to the wrong address! read more

While our regular mail delivery person is quite fantastic, during the holidays they seem to employ temporary carriers. Who don't deliver packages (even when you are home!), don't leave notices (thank goodness for mobile tracking updates), and when you have to come in to pick up a package? Forget it. This location up here is filled with the most inefficient employees ever. Unorganized, understaffed, and untrained. Which considering it seems the same employees have worked here for 4+ years, they would have their job down. I only come here when I have to, I.E., to retrieve a package that they refuse to deliver. If I need proper postal services I either use the CPU at Rancho Drugs, print from home and drop off, or go to the Victorville location. Waiting 30 minutes to pick up a package is ridiculous!!!! (And forget complaining, then they really screw up your mail delivery!!!!) read more

Not bad of a post office . I usually go to drop of packages and get tracking and sometimes there's a line but other than that always a quick and easy process and cool people as long as you give them the same respect you want back read more

They need to get rid of all the employees here nobody seems to know what they're doing I tried to get a money order with a prepaid credit card and when I purchased the money order I tried to write it out to my mom with the same last name and they were not having it they got mad at the fact that we were trying to convert our card into cash and made a big O scene and had to get the managers please avoid this place get a PO Box somewhere else but Apple Valley if you get what I'm saying read more

Literally THE WORST post office I have ever experienced. Something's always out of order (today, you can't drop off packages to send; you can pay for postage, but there's no room to drop them off.) Like many other businesses in the high desert, it stays open simply due to having a captive audience. If you've ever wondered what mailing Christmas presents in the Soviet Union would've been like, then check this place out! Otherwise, go ANYWHERE else! read more

The good thing about this location is i havent had a long wait however i dont get mail delivered properly and lost packages not recovered after filing claim read more

These people are clueless. But seriously, what post office isn't? And to get better, what government agency isn't clueless? The lines weren't incredibly long here, but I got this air of "this is always how it's been done, and this is how it will continue to be done." I only come here when I have to, like to buy a stamp or pick up something because my ignorant postal carrier can't leave packages on my door like I ask them to every day. Oh well... your tax dollars at work (or lack thereof). read more
