Very long lines and usually only 1-2 workers at the front desk helping so it'll take a while. They know what they're doing though, it's just customers who take a long time when they come in not knowing what they want read more

They need more staff support. There was a package stuck in the drop off bin that I and other patrons tried to finish pushing through, and there was absolutely no one who we could even notify that there was now a package blocking their drop off. Hope it doesn't cause other problems for them later in the day. We really did try to tell them :( We felt bad leaving it there, but weren't sure what else to do. read more

Update 4/28/2025: Dismal service. Long slow line. I needed to send a package. To save time, I grabbed a large paper envelope from the back wall before getting in line. Then the employee called me up and told me to put the envelope back and grab the "burble" something. She has a thick accent, so I politely asked her to repeat. She became annoyed and repeated in the same accent. I searched the back wall and couldn't find a large-enough bubble envelope, but found bubble wrap. I returned paper envelope on the wall and grabbed the bubble wrap. Then the employee told me 'No, get the 'burble' [something].' Her accent is still thick. I asked her to repeat again, but she only repeated in her thick accent while getting increasingly annoyed. I returned the bubble wrap on the wall and grabbed the largest bubble envelope available, which was too small to fit my item. She asked "There isn't a larger one back there? Go ahead and grab the envelope you had earlier. Sorry about that." I went to the back wall a FOURTH time to grab the large paper envelope I had in the first place, then she finally helped me through the mailing process. When she had me check the destination address, she gave a slight look-up and scoff as if I'm the rude one and she's being mistreated, when sensibly I should be the one doing it to her. Nonetheless, I remained cordial and polite against her rude service. She's the one who inconvenienced me THRICE. Highly inconvenient experience. Waste of my time. Also expensive. Cost me $12.34 to mail something that should've cost around $5. Next time I'll try somewhere else like UPS. Would be nice if they had one more window open. Four associates instead of three helping the customers. The shop layout should keep a set of all the equipment (envelopes and boxes) behind the employee counter for easy employee access. That way, customers don't have to first guess blindly, wait in line, then get inconvenienced twice or thrice by the impatient staff. Staff can more efficiently serve clientele this way. The staff should be the experets, after all. The line consumes plenty time enough. Don't need to waste even more of our time. ___ Early Apr 2025: Likes: + Professional service. Neutrals: . I needed to submit a COA (change-of-address), but the USPS website couldn't explain why it couldn't locate my old address (G Maps can just fine). The post office couldn't either. Wish the organization's system was more robust. . Location: tucked in the middle of nowhere. . The line moves kinda slow. . Decent amount of parking. . Somewhat dim interior lighting. Non-like: - I wish that upon submitting my paper COA in-person, they sent a confirmation email to help me keep track of the paperwork progress. Has it been 10 days? It'd be helpful if they kept us posted in real time. read more

Slowest service of my life please get people who can work faster and aren't flirting with customers when there's 5 other people in line

One of the employees were extremely rude and nasty. Rude because I was scrolling to read the description of the package and she was like "maam no" the hell you mean? I cannot read it then? (description was about batteries, liquids, explosives etc). Also she bit her fingernails before grabbing the package, just because it's shipped to someone else that doesn't mean it's not disgusting ?? Grown ass woman being rude and disgusting Came to this location cuz I am currently in the area, will not come back here anymore, it just left me really unsatisfied with my experience. read more

Nice people work there. Knowledgeable and hard working. I never get excited about post offices and probably never will. This was close :) read more

People are as happy as they decide to be and often would get a lot farther with a little more patience. Not sure why Postal workers are so historically underrated nor the low rating for this establishment? This is my neighborhood post office; the nearest branch. Having lived here for over a decade, this location has never been a disappointment. I choose to go right after they open or mid-afternoon. There is minimal to zero wait, multiple employees present and always ready to assist me. Whatever I've needed has always been in stock, information given always accurate and whatever I've sent arrives on time in pristine condition. For me, a solid five stars! read more

Very rude! Went to ship something out, but I needed to print an order form and put it in the package first. The lady at the counter said "no, USPS is NOT a printing service!" With a very nasty look on her face. Safe to say I will definitely NOT be coming back to USPS for any of my shipping needs! read more

I have been going to this post office since it opened decades ago. That's why I have more check ins on Yelp on here than anyone else. Service has always been excellent.. And I have had a PO Box here for almost 40 years. Only complaint. Poorly maintained exterior. Trash is often a mess. And landscaping is usually a total disaster. Gets cleaned up about once every other year. read more

See all

These a-holes have lost my package, putting my package into someone else's mailbox. I filed a case with corporate and then they closed it for no reason because they lost a customer's package and didn't want the customer to file a claim of their wrong doing. This place should be shut down. read more

If I could give ZERO stars to this worthless post office I would. NO ONE who works there has any customer service skills. They seem to all hate their jobs. On my first visit the lady labeled my priority mail box incorrectly. The second visit, an even more inept and rude woman over charged me by $80+. The second over charged package was never received by my daughter at college, even though the first package made it there just fine, once the correct label was created. The second package was returned to me in horrible condition. See photo. Fragile was written all over the box, but disregarded as you can see by the photo. When I brought this package to the post office, to receive a refund, per instructions on the usps website, I was met with no apology for the condition the package was in, as well as a "Nope, you can only get a refund online". She scribbled the website down on paper and that was it. She could have cared less. For anyone reading this review, take your packages to UPS. I paid half the price and was VERY well taken care of by the employees who love their jobs and the customers. read more

This post office is terrible. The customer service is nonexistent. There is one man that is not rude, but the rest are just annoyed you are there. I continue to have issues with my packages. I run a small business and it is a HUGE problem when $600 in product says it is delivered in a locker yet they leave me no key. There is always some kind of problem that creates setbacks. read more

I have not had to deal with rudeness like others on this blog! I want to complain that the lobby area is not open to check the mail box if the post office is closed! There has to be another way! read more

This post office so sucks. Unfortunately it is on my way to work. They NEVER open on time. Every single time I have been here at 8:30 when they are supposed to open, they don't till late. Today it was 8:45 am before they opened and we were 20 people in line. Ridiculous. read more

I went to this office to send some mails. It was the first time I used their service. Postal clerk was very efficient and handled my multiple mailings in no time. Parking was a bit challenging as there were many customers but not enough parking spaces. I had to wait till someone left to park! read more

Oh wow - no one really wants to help you out here. Never been in a post office like it. No words but these...Try kindness.

If only I can give this place zero star. It is the worst post office I've ever been to. Their parking sucks. There is always a block on the entrance because dummies clearly don't know how to drive and allow for people to past. I had pre-labeled priority mail that just would not scan at their kiosks. I end up having to wait in a line probably terrible as the DMV. So I mentioned it to them, they said "oh it's been like that?" Um hello, there's three kiosks and you don't want to fix the glitch? Everyone was getting upset at the lack of service for passports. This place is just a hot mess. Stay away! read more

DO NOT COME HERE FOR PASSPORT SERVICES UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! I'm going to agree with the majority of reviewers here and say that this is not the place to go to send packages or get a passport. I scheduled an appointment for a passport and the person was on the lunch break at the time of my appointment. I waited about 1 hour before I received help. I don't have much to say about the price of the service since it's set so I will skip on reviewing that. As for service, it was below average. When going through the passport process it was rushed. I am so pissed at myself for not checking the reviews beforehand. Don't make the same mistake as me and trust these employees. They are terrible at their job and so unprofessional. read more

Samantha was very nice and sweet to me up front she is one of the clerks. She was so awesome and helpful she was very patient with me while assisting me in mailing out my things. And if anything she def deserves employee of the month if anything for going above and beyond for the costumer. Thanks again read more

The lobby is not open 24 hours anymore. You can only access the self-service kiosks and p. o. boxes Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturday from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Closed Sunday. Note that the *window* service hours are shorter. 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. M-F and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sat. Closed Sunday. read more

US Post Office - Lobby is not 24 hours. - Post Offices Near Me - Irvine, California

Came in for passport service. The lady who helped me with passport was kind and didn't rush me. The parking lot at this location is quite challenging. This office is also hard to find due to its hidden location. read more

Came in here to find my PO Box locked even though the bill is set-up on auto pay. Ended up getting into a Curb Your Enthusiasm-esque argument with two of the soulless harpies that work here when they wanted to impound my Driver's License for 20 min to "verify my identity" in the backroom after asking for it back. Problem? "Sorry, they locked it from the inside because you had too much mail." No sh*t, that's why I have a PO BOX. read more

SOOO friendly! Very refreshing since USPS employees kind of have a bad wrap of not being friendly. THEY ARE HERE! :-)

Worst customer experience I have ever received. Guy cut me off mid sentence to tell me there was nothing he could do to help me. I get if you can't do anything, but let me get my words out at least, then APOLOGIZE. Worst people ever. read more

Terrible parking lot, terrible drivers. Drop off bins are closed on the weekends. Would not recommend going during the weekday. They always run out of parking spots and street parking isn't an option. read more

Honestly, I get that frustration with the Post Office but I personally had a decent time here. LOCATION & PARKING // Located on Murphy Ave on between Alton Pkwy and Main St, this place isn't too hard to find. There are a decent amount of parking spots. However, there is only one entrance and one exist so things can get backed up if one car just stops in the middle of the lot (..... this definitely happened many times), it can stop traffic. I would say though that if you can't find parking, just wait 10 seconds because there's quite a nice flow going so people come and go. SERVICE // I went the weekend before Christmas and waited about 10 minutes to send my package off. It was not as bad as I thought and everything went super smoothly. The staff members were all masked and helpful and it was easy for me to get what I needed done. OVERALL // 3.5 stars I mean, it was nothing extraordinary but my experience here was fine, which was a nice surprise considering these places can be such a mess! I had a way better experience here than I have had at other locations. read more

Going to the US post office can certainly be a tough experience, especially if you expect customer service and guidance on your mailing matters. As I stood in line, a gentleman receiving help was advised that he would need to fill out a customs form in order to mail an envelope with photos. It seemed trivial, but the associate gave fair warning to the customer that undeclared photos have a tendency to be stopped at customs and returned to sender. These type of warnings are good, as the average person would not necessarily have known what items they would need to declare before mailing. The service was not necessarily fast or excellent, but it was straight to the point and the associates behind the counter are certainly willing to provide help. However, tasks such as looking for a package, helping customers fill out entire forms, and explaining certain mail rules do take up a good chunk of time and should be a main consideration when visiting any post office. I personally had a good experience at this location as my package required signature, and they were able to quickly find my package to hand off to me. I had to ding a star off though because it really does feel like you wait in line forever and there was also a lack of paper mailing boxes for priority mail in the front desk area. read more

I pay hundreds of dollars/year to rent a P.O. Box here but the post office closes at 5pm during weekdays. How can people who work from 9-5 ever get their mail on weekdays when your open hours are so short? At least cut your box rental fees for the inconvenience of forcing customers to retrieve their mail only on Saturday mornings once/week. read more

While there was a significant line for the services, I was able to quickly use the self-service postage dispenser with no problem, and no wait. It was straight forward to use. I bought first class postage for both US and Canada, used my credit card and received a receipt. It took me 5 mins. If you don't need any special postage needs there are several self-service dispensers at the Murphy location. One is conveniently located just inside the building and available when the post office us closed for all other services. read more

If I could give negative scores I would. This place has the WORST customer service of any place I've ever been. They literally don't even look you in the eyes and they don't have a resolution to anything. No manager on site to resolve your issues and they don't pick up the phone or answer emails. Government $$$ gone to waste. read more

We are a new business in the area and had an issue with our mail pick up. Thuy called us back and helped us get it picked up in time for the holiday deadline. We usually have such bad experiences with the post office, but the staff here was very nice and willing to help! read more

They never answer their phone. A useless office, tape on their outside mail drop boxes was cut off, mail lost forever.

Their coustom service is very unperfessional, rude and unexceptable. We have complained so many time and no one seems to care. They know that they are the only post office in our town and they don't care read more

I had a passport appointment at 10:00 am and nobody was there. Rude staff and funny enough, they were not busy. I had to wait until 1 pm for someone to show up. What a waste of my time and day and they have the audacity to raise their voice when i asked them when is the person planning to show up. Avoid this branch read more

Absolute carelessness. Mailbox was left unlocked. With mail being stolen this is an example of who's at fault. read more

Worst Post Office EVER. Check the reviews. This is the 3rd time I make an appointment for passport for my kid and they easily say oh sorry the person who is responsible for passport not available and the worst part is they say "Things Happened". How come you are not communicating about "these things happening" with customer!!! Oh my gosh, staffs are the in the worst position when it comes to react with customers. I wish I could give them ZERO star and not just 1. Never ever gonna be here. HATE this location. read more

5 stars for the speediness, friendliness, and overall great service at this USPS. For some reason, i find myself at a USPS often. whether that's to mail my friends some overdue presents, or to mail my yearly stack of christmas cards in january, the USPS is my partner in crime. Compared to all the 10 USPS's i've been in in LA, this one takes the cake (yes i know this is not LA). read more

Short staff. Late opening the door on weekdays. They locked the lobby on weekends so you cannot drop off package. I would not recommend this place. Use Postal Annex instead. Also for some reason Yelp won't let me post my true rating of one star (should be negative 10 tbh). read more

Three stars. The good: Plenty of parking, plenty of shipping supplies (both free and paid). They have a passport window. Tons of PO Boxes Employees are friendly. The bad: Understaffed. Tuesday afternoon and there's only two clerks working the line. There's four counters - and only two are filled. There's a line forming. Can the supervisor chilling in the back or someone else come up and help the line? While not at the fault of the employees here - a lot of the customers are clueless when it comes to filling out the right forms. One lady walked up to the counter and didn't have either the TO or FROM part filled out for her package. Then she insisted that the clerk allow her to wait in the counter while she filled it out - despite the clerk pointing out that there is a line forming and if the lady would step aside, the clerk will help her as soon as she's done with her forms. I do like that the clerks are willing to call out customers who waste the time of everyone else in line when they come up ill-prepared. It's one thing to not know which form to fill out - but it's another when you are given the form, told to step aside to fill it out but refuse. It's tucked in a industrial/business area, so not as much foot traffic as other locations, but the understaffed issues and clueless customers really makes the wait time atrocious at times. read more
