As you can see, I've been to this place a number of times now. Mostly because I have no choice, as I live on the Eastside of El Paso and this is the post office they force me to utilize when it comes to picking up packages people have forced signature confirmation on (seriously, what working person has time for this nonsense?!) That being said, believe me when I tell you I would sooner invoke the archaic rituals of receiving letters and packages via Pony Express than to, once again, set foot into this Gawd awful, slower than molasses conceptualized postal service of ineptitude at its absolutely tragic and most vexing. It's quite simple. Post offices should be efficient and easy to use. This one isn't. Everytime time you go to the pickup window, the line is always a mile long. Always. There really is no reason for this. I've been trying to figure it out for years now, but the only conclusion I've been able to come to is they don't give a shit about upgrading their services. Or maybe hiring a second guy to handle the window. Or maybe, just maybe...handle half of these services at the main teller desks the way Boeing post office does. I dunno what it is...but it seems like somehow, Boeing operates at a much faster rate than Sandy Creek. But my personal animosity against this place goes far beyond long lines that move slower than turtles wading through peanut butter or window guys who look more lethargic than Jordan Belfort on quaaludes. You see, yesterday took the cake for me. I had the misfortune of coming back to this place to pick up a package which....apparently couldn't be left in my mailbox (which locks, btw) because the seller decided they NEEDED to have signature confirmation, despite the package not being worth more than $300. But, I digress. Wanna know how long it took me to get my package? 45 minutes. No, it wasn't because of the long line. That part took 1 hour. The thing is, when you hand the guy the slip that reads "package will be available for pickup after 9:30am", you expect as much; especially considering this was around noon the next day. A few problems arose from the get-go.. 1.) They couldn't find the f*cking package. Which segways into 2.) The postman evidently didn't drop the package off in the correct location. So, there I am...already late for a meeting because I assumed I could actually get my package during my hour and a half lunch break and still have time to spare. Alas, there I stand for the next 45 minutes as these asshats frantically search the entire post office warehouse for my tiny package that could have just been left in my mailbox. Eventually, I get it....after 3 other customers behind me came and went. So, what did I think? I think that postman should be severely reprimanded or possibly fired. How hard is it to deliver packages? I think the management here should read all the reviews on this place and...I dunno....CARE more?? Oh, and it would be nice if they made their drop boxes available more often, instead of inexplicably closing them during the day without warning. At least then I wouldn't need to stand in line just to drop off a package when I've already paid for postage. Sandy Creek gets 1 line of vexed customers that wraps around the building twice....out of 5. This easily makes the longer drive to Boeing worth it.

Um no.

Hate having to drive all the way to the post office to pick up my packages. Why can't they just be left at my doorstep like back in AZ?!! Just why?!! Anyways, drove over today at 3:30 thinking I still had an hour until they closed. So I reach the post office and the parking lot was FULL, there was no parking. So I drove around hoping that there would be an empty spot soon. So 10 minutes later, and I finally I get myself a spot. Yay! I walk on in and oh my lanta I almost fainted. The line was bad. Like really bad. This was my third visit to this post office and omg today I was shook. It was now 3:45 and I stand in line hoping that it's going to move fast. I was wrong. The time was now 4:00, and people were still coming in. I kid you not the line had not moved at all!! There was only one guy working, like always, which by the way he's really nice, but today the line was not moving. I decided to leave like tons of other people did, in fear of getting told to leave right at 4:30. I didn't want to waste more time. Anyways this place is a headache and the lines are always ridiculous. They need to either make more windows or have another employee help out the one guy that's always working alone... Two stars just because the employee has been friendly when he's helped me the previous times..

The waiting line for picking up mail or getting keys for your home 30 mins after opening on a Thursday!!!

And this is one of the shorter lines I've seen since being here. Still nearly 20 people in line and each person is taking literally 10-20 mins. I literally don't understand why the process to getting a key for your homes mail box is so painful and complicated. I have bills going to my mailbox and packages and having to drive 15-20 mins to this post office just to get keys is TREACHEROUS. to make matters worse, there's literally only one worker there everyday. I'm confused why they can't pull workers from other parts of the office to help at least at high peak times

Look for this place!

See all

Be aware! This post office has thieves or just the most incompetent people ever! My mother came in…read moreto get a money order and they said her debit card was declined and she had to go the bank. The bank says the post office took the money it's even posted on the account. It's obvious someone either pocketed the money order or there's some glitch in your system. Either way you can see that you took the money. Why be so dismissive and not even trying to figure out what happened? Even the bank is like something fishy going on in that post office!

This excellent branch station on the NE corner of Yarbrough & Pebble Hills (this station is also…read moreknown as "Pebble Hills") is exactly located on one of my Eastside loop cycles. This is extremely convenient As I sometimes need to send mail and it's so easy to use the drive up mailbox or park adjacent to the building to go inside for counter attention. The staff are extremely professional/courteous/diplomatic, especially when coping with irate customers. I am also very appreciative of the tremendous postal workers as they have enabled easy understanding/ compliance with President Biden's mandate of masking/social distancing on Federal property. Individual and the mass populations (~8billion!) are much safer because of blunting the cursed COVID19 pandemic. The lobby is open for business Monday - Friday, (08:30 - 16:30); the building/access to PO Boxes is open 24/7. this outstanding facility certainly has my enthusiastic/coveted "iWheel of Approval!"
