Passhon J.

I really enjoy visiting the post office. The services at the Post office are so outdated, but I enjoy my time here. I can't imagine having to go elsewhere to get my postal stamps, money orders, and certified mail. The Post Office still enforce that good Ol' American integrity. It's a safe space, and the employees are stern on the laws that govern the US Postal Service. The Post Office is also a place that requires you to slow down and to be respectful of your neighbors. Disrespect have no place in the Post Office. It requires you to have a great deal of patience. I enjoy having to visit any post office to pick up my yearly stamps and other postal needs. I would much rather do business at the post office than at Fed X, UPS, and Amazon. On another note, the wait time at this location was longer than usual. I know everyone is getting back to work after the polar vortex, so I did not mind standing in line a little longer today.

Thanks for cutting open my stuff! And damaging it!

See all

Employees are actually really nice here. Smaller facility. No Self service. That's ok, the line moves fast.

The postal service delivery rate is abysmal. I sent an overnight package and it took eight days to get there. Very disappointing.

This post office is trash. Service is terrible. Long waits for no reason. You all need new management or something. Please get it together.

I have gone in to speak with the supervisor with a handful of mail for the entire building just stashed in the magazine slot (or sometimes strewed out on the floor) but that hasn't helped. I've put a sign on my box kindly asking for the carriers to put MY mail inside MY box. But my mail still winds up stashed in the magazine slot for the building along with everyone else's mail. I'm trying to give the carrier who's doing this the benefit of the doubt but it's happening over and over and over again. I clear out my box daily and timely so I'm not understanding why my mail isn't in my empty box? I work for usps so I get important work related mail, in addition to bills and checks that can be compromised if in the wrong hands. What's the point of having a mailbox if you're just going to put the mail wherever you feel on any given day? I finally sealed off the magazine rack and hopefully now our mail will be put inside our boxes. But given the crummy morale of whatever associate is doing this, I won't be surprised to find all of our mail thrown on the floor or just not delivered at all. I do your job, it ain't that hard! Get it together!

Unfortunately, I think they are super under staffed which is why I will give it 2 stars instead of…read more1, but it doesn't excuse the poor customer service that a post office should just not have. I was lucky enough to have one decent experience with a worker, but it doesn't make up for the amount of times I've had a negative experience. I made my appt. for a passport at 12 pm on a Monday and was not taken until about 2:15 pm because the woman who handles this at this office didn't arrive till about 1:30 pm. Not to mention that I had made a passport appointment the previous week, but it was cancelled about 45 minutes before I was scheduled to be there. If the front desk worker goes on break, there is no one to cover the shift so the waiting line just gets longer and longer. It's just poorly run overall.

Worst customer service ever…read more One other customer in the whole place, he finished, and the woman behind the counter said nothing. I waited a bit, she looked at me for a few seconds and said "You ready". It devolved from there. Pathetic little ego behind the counter- mouthy and self-righteous. WHO IS IN CHARGE OVER THERE? This would not fly in the real world. I definitely got a tracking slip while there and would not trust her. Edit- after looking at all the negative reviews, I can't believe that all the employees are as socially maladjusted as this person- photo attached from another review. Just an awful person unfortunately.

I had a PO Box at this Post Office... "had" being the operative term…read more Packages at my building were getting stolen at an alarming rate. Thus, I decided to get a PO Box so my merchandise could be stored in a secure, government building. Plus, I really loved that they have incredible hours, being open until midnight Monday through Friday, and late into the evening on Saturday and Sunday. Alas, this is the only good thing; everything else has been one issue after another. There was a major issue of packages seemingly not being delivered. I would see the tracking notification stating it was, but no 'package waiting' slip in the mailbox. I would bring this to the staff... some of whom checked in the back, while others stated that if there was no slip, it was still moving through the building. After this repeated enough times that some of the staff remembered me, and after I said "the only thing there is the cardboard on the back," he realized that the PO Box was effectively marked as vacant. Uh oh. It was removed, and I thought it would be uphill from there. Nope, there was a further issue. But first, a quick note about Street Addressing. PO Boxes at this Post Office come with Street Addressing, a service where your PO Box comes with a real street address. In trying to find out what this address was, most of the staffers had no clue what I was talking about. I eventually learned what it should actually be from a poster in the hall. Once I knew this from an official USPS source, and the "vacant" sign was removed, I ordered an item to that street address. The UPS tracking showed it as being delivered to the Post Office. However, the package was nowhere to be found. It ended up being a whole lot of finger-pointing, with the package seemingly being swallowed by The Void. After this, I decided it was time to close the PO Box. It was unable to fulfill the function I needed it to, and this is in large part due to negligence (i.e., not taking proper care) by this USPS. Final nail in the coffin: the number of letters that get lost, and the delays if they don't (about a month), are beyond unacceptable.

She made a…read moremistake and took it to this USPS instead, and the employee still took the package from her anyway. Wouldn't it not scan...?

After a few loops through the area, I eventually found a parking spot along N Kenilworth Ave right outside of the entrance. During my loops, I was astonished to see the beauty of downtown Oak Park which I have never seen before. I will have to visit the area one of these days to go food hopping, or maybe even pick out a run route that would take me through it on foot. Now as for parking, it is 1-hour parking, 9 AM - 5 PM Monday - Saturday. Many of the visitors I see try to secure those parking spots along N Kenilworth Ave because you will have to pay if you choose to park along Lake St, which is pay by the plate. An adorable, classy looking building is this post office not only on the outside, but inside as well. I must say that this post office was my life saver due to its closing time on the weekend which will surely result in future visits for me. During my visit, there was absolutely no line of customers inside which resulted in an in-and-out visit (no pun intended), tehehe. As someone who visits post office locations regularly whether it be for Poshmark or eBay shipments, the clerk presented a friendly vibe during our brief encounter at the counter. I was on my way in minutes after she weighed and scanned my package, as well as presented me with mailing stamps for my postcards. I am terrible at doing the surveys on the receipts pertaining to my visits at post offices, but rest assured I always share a review based on my experiences. I had a great experience and would gladly utilize Oak Park Post Office again for any shipments I may have. ~ Embrace the journey. ~ Thomas G
