All I could see when I first walked into this post office was a broom, a gallon of bleach, hot soapy water, a rag and a big bottle of window cleaner---this joint was a total mess. Floors grimy, trash all over the floors, and the counters and windows with visible dirt. The line was backed up almost out the door but it's open till 5pm on Saturdays which gave it a +. The customer service was ok. The parking lot is messy because it's small and people piling in from the main street. read more

Why everybody bitchin , it's the government , I went on a Saturday , sure they don't answer the phone the line was 7 people the most it took less than 5 minutes to be done , also the lady asked if I want priority or signatures required and so on she took time to answer my inquiry . It's the customers that take the time to chit chat with postal employees , maybe reason why lines take so long . Overall it was fast , it's the parking lot the SUCKS !!!! Property next to it is. Selling it for 1 million and 10 thousand . USPS should buy it make lot bigger . read more

Ever since they took out the drive-up drop off center I feel as if this place took a turn for the worse! Every time I come in here I see an argument between customer and worker... Never fails lol. Sometimes I try and figure out hmm... Who's fault is it? Hahaha, keeps me entertained while I await my turn. The workers here are helpful when they want to be. So hopefully you catch them in a great mood.. ***Please come prepared guys.*** There's nothing more annoying then waiting behind someone whos getting their life together at the window. Have some respect for the 80 other people behind you.. And have some shame for yourself too. We don't wanna see tampons & stride gum falling out of your purse while you look for your ID... read more

It's not the BEST post office but I have been to worse, believe it or not. Yes, one time my mail was stolen and I did try to file complaints but no one ever seemed to care. Finally I filed one with the Police Department instead but nothing ever came of it. It seems like a failed system if at no fault of my own, things I purchased and have the confirmation of payment and shipping, then my packages (two separate ones from two separate sellers) say they are delivered but end up stolen from my gated home, and I have NO recourse. I know it's not the PO's fault but they were not very helpful. They told me to call a number that just rang and rang. I went BACK inside days later and finally they gave me an email address but no one ever got back to me. Other than that one incident, there is a long line but it goes pretty quickly and your business gets handled just like any other post office. I feel bad for the employees there. They are probably under paid and overworked. It could be cleaner in there too. read more

Horrible service lack of professionalism refused to help had a problem lady didn't I want to help me went to the other post office on Gardena Boulevard and everything was taken care of read more

This post office has horrible customer service and delivery service. This is the second time i was suppose to receive a package and both times it says "delivery attempted but no access" this is ridiculous because there are two entry's to my apt building. I went to the post office and asked them why does this happen and one lady said "if it's late and unsafe then they won't go in" mind you, the delivery attempt was at 10 am. Also, why did she ASSUME that where i lives was unsafe. I will be making a compliant to corporate because they are completely unprofessional. I've read the previous comments and i see that their complaints are the same as mine. Horrible. read more

I would not usually leave a review of a post office but I had such a good experience here that I wanted to give credit where it was due. Mary, who I'm assuming is a supervisor, helped me locate a package that my carrier forgot to leave a slip for / was supposed to be available for pick-up but was still on the truck. I was a little frustrated with the carrier but Mary told me she was staying late and promised to call the next day when she found it. She did call first thing the next day and I was able to get my package after work and be on my way. read more

The mailman or woman aren't doing their job not picking up my mail that needs to be delivered you guys hate your life or something?! Anyway that person should be fired! read more

I've never had a problem here other than parking and getting in and out of the lot. Yeah, they aren't the most friendly bunch, but they do try to get you taken care of as best they can. The line moves fairly fast and you can't fault the workers because I've never seen them not being busy with the customers. The best thing is that this is the main post office, so when you send something out...it gets there very fast. I also use the Crenshaw PO and things take a day or so longer, I think because it then goes to the main PO before it is on its way. read more

This post office is always, always packed. Sometimes I've had to ship something and walked right out when I saw the line. I've done this several times when it wasn't the holiday season, so be prepared for extra, extra long lines now!! The service is what you would expect at the post office, sometimes friendly and sometimes indifferent. They have good rates on boxes here and I got one because they used to be open 24 hours. This also used to be the few offices that stayed open until 7pm for regular business. Now they close at the same time as the other ones and the PO boxes are only available until 8pm! Everything is well stocked and clean but the limited box hours and excessively long lines make this only a mediocre post office. read more

We have not received mail for 14 days. No one will meet with us to discuss it. Amazon said all of our packages are being returned back to them by USPS. CVS said my medication was delivered and in the post office's hands but they say the postal lady has it. She hasn't delivered it and they're not punishing her for it. I also have very important letters I need for my daughter's college in this mail. We receive email pics that they are in there but post office says the mail lady has it and she has yet to come to our house. They made my husband wait 45 min to speak to a manager and then told him she left! Also, we filed complaints and the complaints says they were dealt with and closed when no one has talked to us?! I have never seen such evil in my life! Who withholds medication from people and their paychecks? They should be thrown in jail. My husband has gone to the post office six times now taking time off from work and still nothing has been accomplished. The postal police told them they have to deliver our mail and they said they would and lied. read more

Worst post office ever. They never answer the phone and the automated machine hangs up on you every time. They lost or stole my package and told me someone would reach out to me and never did. They're are criminals. read more

The service I received here is terrible. First I asked a guy the cheapest way to send a package and he weighed it and told me $7.50 through priority mail; I asked him "what about the flat rate priority mail" and he told me "no, this is the cheapest". Not the case, the $6 priority envelope worked just fine! Second, i hand them two other packages that I had already paid the postage on and just needed a receipt. They told me I had to PAY for a receipt!!!! PAY FOR A RECEIPT! Lol what! I asked to speak to a supervisor and she told me the same thing. Mind you this isn't my first time returning to either of these companies and i've always retained a receipt from the USPS with no problem. This is my first and last time at this store, the other USPS in Gardena is much better and doesn't charge for a receipt! I'm speechless. Charging for a receipt!! read more

If you're gonna try to call them , don't even bother just go in. I've been calling 4 times each time waiting 30-40 minutes only for the call to "drop". read more

For awhile it seemed the carrier in our area was delivering mail everyday but lately it's been 3 days before mail is delivered hope nobody has medications being delivered come on and pull it together for the holidays and during COVID. read more

When asked why did they tell me 2 days after it was still being sorted? he just kept saying it doesnt need a signature which wasnt the point! where the F is my pkg?! they wont take responsibility for losing my pkg or someone on staff stole it! horrible facility, horrible staff, and not the first problem. will be sending my pkgs elsewhere read more

They never answer the phone, my mail doesn't get delivered, I place a complaint and they don't do it!

Worst friggin postal office EVER and I don't even live in LA. How the hell you have a professional business establishment with a phone number that doesn't allow you to speak to someone ?? -0.0stars read more

Our mail is suppose to be delivered by Gardena but two months ago they stopped delivering our churches mail. They are rude, and seem to go out of their way to try to make things difficult. Because of the poor service I have had to had my mail sent to my home instead of the church. read more

they never answer the phone! i went into the office to pick up a package they had for me and they said they couldn't find it? the lady was mad because..... in her words "that wasn't her job" to look for a package! she told me i would have to call back to see if they found it. i laughed and told her -you guys have never answer the phone tho' read more

Did they add "rudeness" to the hiring requirement? Why is everyone so grumpy! I can never get my things done without getting their eye rolled on me or their super arrogant tone. They talk to me like I'm a stupid five year old kid. Of course, you should know better because you freaking work here!!! read more

People wonder why the USPS is bleeding money like crazy every year ..... well .... from all the reviews on here, it should be very telling! My recent experience dealing with this branch and LA USPS and whoever is on their USPS hotlines make me wish USPS should just go bankrupt and lay off every one of them and start over. Of course - I'm being mean and I'm sure there are nice people that work hard at USPS, but seriously ..... get your SH*T together USPS. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So recently my company sent out an International Express Package (ETA 3-5 business days). It was picked up by our usual mail carrier at work, along with many other packages/mail and off it goes to "la la" land .... never to be found again (as of present). So after mailing it out, we decided to track it a couple days later and there was no status update on the USPS website. Figure some times they are slow to update ... and by 5th business day, checked again and still nothing. So that's when the first phone calls to USPS started. Their reply was that "oh don't worry, just not updated etc." But for a EXPRESS package - on the 5th business day, its SUPPOSE to be in the hands of the receiver already. Anyways, to save you some reading time .... called many numerous times to different USPS customer service agents - ALL OF THEM RUDE, UNHELPFUL or LIE TO YOU - none of them can assist! Its like they all took the same "HOW NOT TO BE HELPFUL" class or something. Pretty much the customer agents will "re-direct" you to someone else or tell you to call someone else or put you on hold forever. I can tell you - many of the phone calls to USPS took 30-40 minutes average to be PICKED UP (if its even picked up). So you are sitting there listening to their commercials, saying how USPS is great so ship with them. Yea - waiting 30 minutes to talk to a person that can't even help you and just rudely put you off .... uh huh ... "GREAT my @ss"! One of the supervisors on the USPS phone line - pretty much straight up lied and said "Oh your package is held by the US Customs" .... If thats the case, then please give me the US Customs tracking number for the package. Even called the Customs and their service was SO MUCH nicer and helpful than USPS. They kindly explain the run-down, how it works etc. and told us, US Customs does NOT HOLD out-going mail/package and even if they did, they hold no more than 48 hours. So pretty much - they called "lie" on USPS. And after the experience dealing with USPS - I believe US Customs! So a couple days and rounds and rounds of phone call were ALL no help - brings me back memories of the Merry-go-round .... going no where. Decided it was time to hit the main post office in the area. Went to the Post Office to see the POST MASTER twice on two different occasions - he keep saying he doesn't know or push the blame to some one else. When we gave him a claim number, he doesn't even bother to "TRY" to look it up. Basically saying "no way the package was there" and he went into explaining how the package can be else where etc. He thought I was some newbie that hardly mail anything so by using some explanation that works on regular joes - its not going to work with me. Finally I got pissed - our business ships hundreds (if not thousand+) of packages/mail with the USPS every month, so I know roughly how the system works and pretty much know the post offices in the area. While I'm no expert, but dealt enough to know whats up. I explained to him about the issue and basically tell him to cut the cr@p. I'm not trying to blame him on anything but I'm trying to find a solution to this issue. The whole time speaking with him - just makes me feel that no one wants to find a solution to this but instead they just want to kick the problem down the road or to someone else. Finally, he said to call the inspector general to open investigation because "MAYBE" the carrier stole it. (He did not say it in those words but I get where he was going). LONG STORY SHORT - Over two dozen phone calls (or more) to USPS, speaking to their useless, rude, bitchy customer service reps at many different locations/departments and visits to the Post Office to see their Post Master .... all came out with different stories. I thought Congress was good at "solving problems" ... wow ... USPS takes the cake on being the most inefficient organization. If you have some thing important to mail - go with FedEx or UPS. Its probably worth the extra few bucks - hell, even if its not that important, just go with them. If you don't have to use USPS, don't. Oh - if you need to go down to the USPS office to see the Post Master at this branch - try to go early or something. Because the office tends to have a line of people that have issues the Post Master can't or don't really care to solve, in my opinion. read more

They have a voice which answers the phone and transfers you to "customer service" which hangs up on you! Unbelievable - how do you get away with it. You call the USPS 800 number and today there is a 55 minute to 55 minute wait according their recording. read more

Worst post office ever. Removed all of their outdoor mail receptacles, and reduced their "24 hour" lobby hours. If you can't make it there before they lock the doors, you can't even mail a letter. Found this out the hard way when I had to mail a payment with a near due date. The automated postal center made things bearable for a short time, but it's very difficult to use when it's inside a locked building, and your outside of that locked building. I've also had packages addressed to me gone missing. I have no idea where they went. I do recall a woman protesting on the sidewalk outside of this post office with boxes and a sign saying that they stole her packages. read more

This is the worst USPS that I have ever been. The service is very slow and unorganized. The workers seem incapable to provide good customer service. Every time I came here, I always found customers complained. In addition, parking can be difficult. I won't come to this post office if I don't have to. read more

The Postmaster General really needs to investigate this branch. Two years ago an Asian lady at the counter screamed at me when I came to pick up a package. She screamed "It is not my job to find your package!" I figured she had a bad day and I let it go. Today, I went to pick up a package. When I got to the counter, an Asian man directed me to a separate line for package pickup. The supervisor Lily then helped me but she could not find my package. The company that sent me the package said the tracking number shows that it is at the post office. I even called UPS just to check and UPS said the they no longer had the package and that it is at the post office. I got back in line and the Asian man said that USPS holds packages for up to 15 days. I just heard Lily tell the lady she was helping before me that packages are held up to 30 days. I even overheard that same lady before me complaining to Lily that what Lily was telling her was different than what the Asian man was telling her. Apparently that lady was at the post office yesterday and all she wants is her check. Inconsistent information seems to be the norm here. I spent half an hour at the post office this morning and I observed four angry community members within that time. Furthermore, so many mail carriers have quit from this branch over the last few years it's hard to keep up with who is delivering mail because the routes are all split up. The post office used to be a friendly part of the community. I acknowledge that they play an important role in sending and delivering mail and checking to see that the contents are safe. I've observed a steep downturn in customer service at this branch and the workers at the window are very curt with bad attitudes. read more

The counter closes at 5:30pm not 6pm... 6pm is for self service such as dropping mail in mail box or checking your PO boxes. I arrived to the door at 5:31pm and doors were lock. The employee literally blocked the doors as another customer & I were approaching. Horrible customer service & there were people inside that were awaiting so it's not like the registers & place was prepared for closure. For any choosing this location & needs counter service get through the door by 5:30 because a minute after they will shut the door in your face. read more

One word: HORRIBLE. I simply cannot stand this post office. It is conveniently located on Redondo Beach Blvd -- on my route to the 110 freeway entrance, but doggonit... it all goes downhill after that: 1. Parking is horrendous. No matter what hour I go, there is a line of cars waiting to pull into the lot. 2. This area seems to attract.... an interesting demographic.... of the weirdo variety. I have seen some interesting things happen here, at B of A across the street, and the Albertson's a few blocks away. 3. Lines inside - are always very long and there is usually only ONE worker manning the crowd. read more

I retired from the USPS in 2004. This must be the worst post office. The carrier scanned my package as delivered but we never got it. The window supervisor, Jun Min Lee is rude, useless and doesn't care. He gave the number of Lashawn Smith , the delivery supervisor's phone number. She doesn't answer her and no voice mail either. I tried for 2 days. I returned to the Post Office to talk to Ms Smith in person. She was not available. I asked to talk to Cynthia Campano, the Gardena Postmaster. She was not there. This Post Office doesn't have any supervision. The Postmaster is MIA. Maybe this is why the window lobby has a bullet proof glass more than a bank. BTW there was 5 other customers looking for their packages and Mr Lee just walked and sat on desk until the 3 other customers left. The worst ever. I'm ashamed to say that I retired from the USPS. It was never like that before. The postmaster was accessible. Postmaster office was always available to hear complaints. They always refer to call 1-800-275-8777 which is total waste of time and useless. We need to reform the whole US Postal Service.... does anyone where we can write to or complains to either than the USPS? I filed so many complaints with the 800-275-8777 and nothing happened. There must be an ombudsman for the USPS read more

My review is with the postal service in general. Maybe everyone else knows this but it was news to me. The expected delivery date indicated on the receipt is "just an estimate" and an investigation cannot be started unless to priority item takes longer than 5 days to be delivered. I sent a package priority mail to Lousiana on 06/23/18. The expected delivery date was 06/25/18. According to the tracking, the package went from Gardena, to Los Angeles on 06/23/18. On 06/25/18, it was in Dulles, VA, then it went to Merrifield, VA and to Washington, DC. The package then went back to Merrifield, VA on 06/26/18. When I contacted the post office I was told the expected delivery date was an estimate. What? read more

I didn't receive my package... for the umpteenth time. So I decided to call and see if they could use my help in getting my mail to me. I've been trying to call their office all day. Seems this office is so dedicated to serving their customers they have a recoding that's greets you then hangs up in your face. Great, just Great!!! read more

This USPS need to be close down they lost two deliveries already from me and you can't even find their number and when you do finally find it there is no one to talk to but automated service that's just repeating Gardena post office twice and hangs up. Awesome swear to never order anything from USPS again read more

This place is horrible I ordered a package supposed to be delivered today to my door which I have a tracking number but mailman which he's name Lashawn smith. God lazy did not deliver the package to my house which I need it tomorrow morning I want to post office supervisor name John Lee you should get fire you better learn how to speak English clearly and unlearned customer servicenext time I will pay little bit more extra and using UPS are you shitting me the fucking parking place read more

This place is a joke omg where to start. NO PARKING a bunch of dummys sitting in there cars in the spots. Dirty and run down. Long lines. They don't speak English. And they work slow like slower than dmv. I'm not sure 3 letters I put in the box even made it. They don't have a drop box outside I mean really??? No drive through.?? The postman at my house sucks too like he's lazy and I guess after 20 years he didn't learn if you leave a letter in a mail box for him it means take me and mail me. It's too funny I've also gone to El Pollo Loco and heard all these people yelling screaming cussing and crashing noises. They abuse there own trucks i guess it's sad. Thats why they need new ones now. Where's their boss who's in charge of this silly mess.???? read more

so why did they send me LEFT NOTICE...they lied nothing was left...why would they lie...so UPSET...been tracking my package and came home early....I'M AN UPSET COOKIE...the postman never showed up!l!l read more

US Post Office - so why did they send me LEFT NOTICE...they lied nothing was left...why would the lie...so UPSET - Post Offices Near Me - Gardena, California

This is the worst post office I've ever been to. 1st off they lost half of our mail when my boyfriend's brother moved out. He filed a single change of address and they still send my boyfriends mail to his brother and some of his brothers mail to us. We are still waiting for a Netflix disc that's been missing for 2 weeks. Not only that but I'll drive to the Carson or Torrance post office when I need to mail something or buy stamps because this post office is RIDICULOUSLY slow. And I know post offices are supposed to be slow but I'm talking about a 30 minute wait when there's only 2 people in front of you. The workers are rude and the manager is the worst. read more

Why the fuck does USPS tracking say something is going to be delivered a certain day then never update until about 8 hours later only to tell you your item is going to be delivered the next day. Man fuck you USPS you guys are the worst fucking delivery service in the world. No wonder large distributors use UPS and FedEx you guys are the worse of the worse. read more

The korean lady there treat me very badly and she cannot explain a thing clearly. Also she take for granted that I cannot received a delivery notice of my very important document. she even said that was because I didn't use a 24.95 second day delivery!?? read more

I can't believe they actually offer a survey service for their work critique. I'll be looking that up after I finish here. Rudest service ever. I needed to send a package for my daughter in law. The apt number was iffy so I needed to ck on the number. Michelle the attendant was completely annoyed. Mind you the office is empty....it's 10:45 Tuesday morning. I then asked for insurance. She started now she needed to void the transaction and handed me a sticker and advised to fill it out. I double checked in the correct address....fill out the form and get in line again. Once I finished I returned with my form filled out. She then loudly and inappropriately starts to say " ohh lord jesus christ".....for you see I had failed to fill out the envelope and this was her way to voice her disgust in front of a now full post office. I quickly grabbed my package and left. I hope there is video with sound to collaborate my review. Very unprofessional. Will not return read more

Lazy idiots only employed here! They avoid any type of work. Asked to get a pre-paid item scanned. They refused.
