I put in a service request to have it fixed, they said they would send someone out to fix my mailbox and hold mail until then. I step into the post office a few days later for an update on my service request, asking if they had my packages/mail as I have had things marked as delivered in my mailbox since they told me they said they were going to hold my mail. The lady (albeit I understand she is probably overworked and stressed out) tells me that the carrier had never been holding my mail (despite another employee telling me she was going to tell the carrier to hold my mail) and that the mailbox was fixed. THEY NEVER SENT OUT ANYONE TO FIX MY MAILBOX AND HAVE BEEN DELIVERING MAIL TO A BROKEN MAILBOX. All of my packages have been stolen because of their negligence to this issue. I am rightfully frustrated and am going to be filing a formal complaint against this post office.

I don't have many nice things to say about this USPS location. It's a nightmare to get to because…read moreit is located on one of the busiest streets in the Seven Cities (Battlefield Blvd). If you're coming from I-64/Military Hwy and decide to stop here, good luck making that U-turn at Battlefield & Volvo! I don't care much about how it looks because I'm used to visiting some real beat up/rundown local post offices. To be honest, this venue doesn't look that bad. I've seen worse. The issue I have is the people who work there, particularly Clerk 27. Her poor attitude screamed, "I hate this place. I don't want to be here," and she didn't like that I wasn't "prepared" with my package. I was returning a purchased item and was provided a free return shipping label. I came in with the item in its original shipping package, and the label, which I printed at my office (I no longer own a personal printer). She mumbled something about the label, and I replied, "Sorry, I didn't have anything to attach the label." Clerk 27: "Yeah, that's what I said. You need to attach the label." It was the tone that got me, but I simply apologized again. Then I mentioned to her that the package wasn't sealed. At the Norfolk P.O., they're cool with providing BOTH the plastic shipping label adhesive to attach to the package, AND they automatically will tape the package shut. In this instance, after I told Clerk 27 that the package wasn't sealed, she emphatically replied, "You need to have this sealed already when you bring it in. We don't do that, but this one time, I will." Again, it was the tone that got to me. Yet again, I apologized and thanked her. The worst part about this transaction - as I was walking away, Clerk 27 muttered something under her breath. I know it was derogatory, but I just let it go and kept walking. I know it sucks to engage with all sorts of characters every day, five days a week. And I'm completely on board with standing your ground to difficult customers. But when dealing with people who are simply going about their day and want nothing more than to complete their chores and tasks, being an a-hole because they don't know anything about your job's policies and procedures is not the move. Don't be a jerk. I'm glad I don't visit the post office much. Even though this post office is near my office, I don't want to come back. I'd rather wait until a Saturday morning to conduct my business at a Norfolk post office. The irony here is that you'd think it'd be vice versa. But yeah, I'd rather go to a Norfolk post office than a Chesapeake one. JV

I would like to report an ongoing safety concern at the post office on Battlefield Road near the…read moreWalmart. I sell online and often need to drop off packages in the morning before going to work, using the self-service kiosk. On several occasions, I have had to leave without dropping off my packages because there was a homeless individual sleeping or standing in the lobby. This has made me feel unsafe, especially during early morning hours when there are no employees present. I understand that this can be a difficult situation, but something needs to be done to ensure customer safety. At a minimum, having police or security do periodic drive-bys or checks would help. Customers should not have to feel afraid simply dropping off a package, especially when many of us rely on early-morning access due to work schedules.

They do not operate in accordance with the hours the government assigns them. The one time I went and they were not on lunch, the woman at the register was not qualified to operate the register, meaning she couldn't check me out. Which made my visit entirely useless and I had to come back another day. I actually dread coming here and try to avoid USPS, particularly this one, at all costs. Update 3/12/25: came back for the 4th time and they are out to lunch again. Added a second photo ("Willie turn at 3:30"). It was 2:15 when I arrived.

The building is a little old and dated but it's clean and seems sturdy enough, it serves its purpose. I've been to this post office many times over the years and have always found the staff to be very friendly and helpful as they efficiently carry out their duties. Like most post offices the line can get long at times but it always moves at a swift pace and the wait is never too long. The only real negative about this post office is that you can only enter and exit from Indian River Road in one direction so if I drive there from my house I have to go past it and make a u-turn. It's an ordinary small post office but they can meet all your postal needs. The friendly, caring staff gives the place a nice vibe. The atmosphere is relaxed but efficient at the same time.
