This is the worst post office. Rude, bad attitude, and unreliable, they are not happy with their job. They are worse than the DMV, even if you complain to a supervisor named Patricia, who also has a bad attitude. read more

Came at 10:30am on a Monday. Line was short and service was friendly. Glad to have a solid USPS in the neighborhood, will be my go-to.

The is my least favorite post office I think I've ever visited. The lines are extremely slow and oftentimes, the line grows faster than customers are being serviced. They open at 9AM, but I once waited until 9:20 for the postal workers to start taking customers, with no explanation. I also once was severely questioned about why a package I was picking up had my moms name, instead of mine, despite me having my ID, a copy of my mothers ID, and mail with both of our names with the exact address on it, that matched the package name and address. I ALSO had a copy of the order, with the tracking number to match as proof, that I showed them on the phone. I'm talking rapid fire questions about why I didn't cancel the order, why was the wrong name used, why not re order. Just give me my package that I have ample proof for. The kiosks, which is self serve, is probably the most helpful thing about this location. The only issue is, if the package is too big to fit through the slot for drop off, they will make you wait on line (I've had a few times they'll take it through the window - really all depends on their mood for the day). I had this exact issue today and I took my package home because no way was I going to wait on a 45 minute + line for a five second interaction. My package was labeled and ready to go and all I needed was for a worker to take it from me, no receipt needed. When I was able to flag down a worker from the back who wasn't servicing customers, I was told to wait on the line that was literally, to the door. I contacted USPS, who called me back and they told me, yes they are supposed to take it if it's ready to go, but somehow this location hasn't gotten the memo. read more

Parking in the area is available but tricky sometimes so bring your quarters. The post office has little ventilation and is very hot inside. The links are long but they mves. The post workers are helpful and work efficiently. read more

Since the Elmhurst Post Office closed due to flooding, customers are diverted to other post offices within the vicinity. The closest one within walking distance is the one located in Jackson Heights. When I walked in there was a long line but it moved. Staff was helpful and friendly. There was a line to apply to get passport which did not seem to move as well. Had no idea about this service at this location. Will be back again to use their services. read more

Dirty. Huge lines. 1 window open. 2 if you are lucky. This place is the definition of bad service. The worst post office I've ever been. Nobody cares. Why would they? That's our government at "work" people. These people should be all fired read more

Masochists take note! If you enjoy long lines and the bleakest possible surroundings, here is your nirvana. As I write this I am standing in a line nearly out the door but there's only a single window open and each transaction seems to involve negotiations of such excruciating complexity that I expect to be here overnight. Do not think of coming here without your blood pressure medication. read more

The worst service in the USA We wait and we wait and we wait and then we wait some more. 2 o'clock in the afternoon there is one service window open and one for passport only read more

I'd like to think I'm a patient person, but the customer service is horrible, the waiting time is disgusting, and everything there is the definition of hell. They lost my $200 package, so now they took my package, money, and time. Have fun ! read more

I love that this post office is only 4 blocks away & they are open til 5pm daily & til 1pm on Saturday. I've always been helped by personnel behind the counter & walking around. They do their best to get U in & out of the line read more

Customer Service awful they rush you and get mad at you when you move slow. _____\\\\

I been coming to this Post Office for over 20 years, very nice and clean, needs improvement in decor and up grading, the staff are very proffesional and management is hands on. I even have a Post Office Box even thought the price was raised from 40 to 60 + even thiught I had it for over 10 years, they should have discount for loyal customers, but its the USPS, I do trust them with my mail and packages and they are very help full better then Fed Ex and UPS. read more

It is almost like they don't care... the staff is slow and they seem like to be very unhappy with their job. sometimes i see one or another employee who are in a good mood but most of the time the mood here is of unhappiness and annoyance. even if you have your pre paid packages with the already printed label and packed most places you could just come in and drop it, but not here! here u have 2 broken boxes so we need to be in the line with everyone and sigh at the broken drop off boxes. it is very depressing to have to come here every time i need to send a box out, the worse part is that it seems like nobody cares or tries to make it better, fix the drop ff boxes or make sure that people that have their stuff ready do not need to stand on the line. it is very rare to see a human here who cares. super sad but true... read more

Angry clerks, incorrect information given, packages sent from this location lost with no explanation nor sense of responsibility, just the suggestion that you request your $9.99 postage refunded. Congratulations USPS on effectively delivering the message that customers do not count. This location is basically the best advertising that UPS and FedEx could ever ask for. read more

The worst ever !!! Very rude unhappy people work here.. its very frustrating looking for guidance and help when people are unhappy with there life & jobs... The only thing that helped me was a women who went around assisting on the floor.. that's the second star! read more

1/8/21 10:50am I'd been ringing the bell and people inside are just passing by. No one have the interest to attend me. I am just going to pick up the package and I waited 30mins in the counter. Horrible service. read more

Can't give it zero stars, so one it is... To sum it up succinctly, everyone who works here is a stupid c*nt. Slow, rude, lazy, and they make zero sense when you ask them questions. Sadly it's still better than the P.O. on 61st in Woodside. read more

If you're a handicap or mommy with a stroller stay away from this location they don't have an accessibility for the wheelchair or stroller plus no help even if you asked for. Horrible! read more

Wonderful Experience! Just like any city post office - there are lines! So, plan ahead. And be patient. Also, be kind to these hard working folks who handle our mail. Sometimes communication is a bit off but smile and you should be alright. read more

I am here now. Loooong line, one window open. On a *Saturday afternoon*. There is another window with someone standing behind it doing... who knows what. Not a good look when people are waiting on a line that is not moving. Disgraceful. HORRIBLE service. Despite the long line, the woman behind the ONE open window took care of people who had just walked in before those who had been waiting. She did this just before I walked up to the window, and as I walked away when I was done with my transaction, she did it again with another customer who had just walked in. With so many people out of work who would be thrilled to have a job and would work hard, someone like this remains employed? The post office deserves to fail. read more

Looking over the bad reviews, I couldn't help feeling that the real gems of the Jackson Heights Post Office weren't receiving their reviews. There are always bad apples in a bunch. However, there are some angels working at this station, who must unfortunately remain nameless. They are some of the long term staff and the friendliest, most honest and most helpful people anywhere. Thanks for being there l, not behind the scene, but quietly as it really ought to be! read more

they start closing the registers and counting their once the line is all the way passed the doors and leave only one register open ... how does that make sense ? read more

Only 1 person working here at 9 am and line almost out the door. Why is there no manager or support to help the sole employee? Terrible.

OMG!!! Had the worst experience today. Thank you Amber for ruining my trip to the post office today!!!! Man, talk about being unhappy and unfriendly. If you hate your job, don't pass that attitude towards the customer!!!! All I did was ask if I had enough postage on the package I was mailing out and then came the attitude with smart ass remarks. I hate coming to this Post Office but it is the only one in the neighborhood. Amber is just one of the rude workers that works there. I wish someone can do something about the unhappy workers and replace them with some happier workers. I am going to start using those ATM mail machines. This way, you don't have to get any attitude when buying postage. read more

Let's be real here. What post office anywhere in NYC deserves more than 3 stars?! The sad answer is: none. In comparison to other post offices I've been to in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens, this is better than many others. However, I have a few incidents that have forced me to ask whether workers here are qualified. One of the most recent interactions was when I sent a 49 lb media mail box. YES, I admit it is SUPER HEAVY and may sound unreasonable, but I work in education and I need to send a million books to my next destination. I've been sending them in tiny boxes but I needed to get it over with; thus I went to send my last 49 lb box full of books. I place the box onto the counter and immediately the worker complains to me, "You can't send a box this heavy; someone will get hurt." Without asking someone for help, the worker tries to slide the box over then aims badly into the large container, then proceeds to scream. Workers shuffle over to offer help. Then, more complaints towards me. First of all, I don't think there is a limit. Second, maybe you are saying YOU will get hurt because you are not fit and strong enough to carry that box. Last, I checked qualifications for post office workers and you should be able to carry 70 lbs. I can't send a box full of books because it's too heavy for YOU and YOU will get hurt...? It's about time to work somewhere else in a quiet office that does not require physical work. read more

Literally the worst place I have ever been in my life. The staff is always ridiculously rude. Today I went to pick up a package. I asked an employee if there was a separate line for pick ups because last time I came there was. She didn't even bother to look me in the eyes as she muttered "stand in line". Literally seconds after she went up to another woman who had a pick up slip and asked if she could help her. Um what????? I'm still confused. read more

I guess the delivery guy cant read because i specifically requested them to throw the package over the gate (if its not open) and to not leave it on the porch bc it always gets stolen. But he decided its best to not deliver at all. And for some reason i cant track my package. Its been saying "out for delivery" for 2 days now and i cannot contact usps jackson heights representative. Ps: thanks for not leaving me a notice of "attempted" delivery. read more

Worst experience of my life. The girl at the jackson Heights Post Office window was unprofessional, rude and right down nasty. They all need a course in customer service and do not deserve to be working for a United States Post Office! read more

They are mean、rued, and they do not know what are they doing. 　Beware, if you don't know what kind service you want use to ship, they only told you that most expensive way to ship. read more

Almost every thin I go there, the drop boxes are full. That is sometimes understandable but when I tried to put my box in, and it got stuck, the lady refused to go and check it for me and make sure my box was deposited correctly and that the chute was clear for other people as well. She had a horrible attitude, was rude and unhelpful, and I had waited in the line too, it's not like I just asked without waiting. There was a lady with her headphones on behind one of the stations, and I tried to politely get her attention initially but she chose to ignore me. I was polite and nice but she ignored me. Also, the post office has like 6 stations, but only one was open, only one worker to help the public. The rudeness and attitude is in my opinion, unforgivable, unreasonable, and just makes people upset, like myself. Nobody helped me to dislodge my package from the chute so I just left it there and went home. Horrible horrible customer service there today. I'm optimistic and thinking that there are other workers there that are nice and helpful but these to ladies there today were the absolute worst!! I was there at about 10:40 on February 8th if the management reads this. If the post office manager reads this and cares, please improve your customer experience and make sure that when someone says that the chutes are full, that they get cleared out and especially if a customer has a package stuck in the chute!! It's just ridiculous and dumb. read more

Superrrrr slow omg‍ I came to pick up a package. Do they not know where stuff is back there?!!!

Worst Post Office, the regular tellers, there are three windows (no one is online waiting) wouldn't take a pick up because there is a separate Pick Up Window (one teller) and that line is super long. Makes no sense. read more

Longest lines + slow employees = everyday situation at this office. Shortest wait time 15 minutes, longest 1 hour+. I usually try to ship with UPS on 83rd and Roosevelt. I generally only buy stamps for bills. But I bought something online that needed to be returned with USPS. Yes, they have self-serve kiosks, but the population of jackson heights includes newcomers and the elderly who do not know how to use the machines. Provide education to use these elements or staff appropriately. To echo another Yelper, now wonder the USPS is losing crazy money. Also, if you create a self-serve station, than make sure your stocking boxes, envelopes throughout the day so people could actually use them. Pens and tape would also be a nice gesture, but then hey!, you'd actually become UPS or FedEX. Scary. Avoid. read more

Lived in the area for 3 years now.... this is the first Christmas 1 out of 4 packages was delivered to me, the rest was "undeliverable", which we all know is a pack of lies. No cards, no packages, no anything. Ruined my holiday because of their "professionalism" seriously they better refund all these packages. I hate their delivery men, they suck The only thing this location has going for them is that pick up is fast, lived in NYC since 09, and its way better that most. read more

Able to solve the problems sometimes it has a long line but is worth it to wait! Ship and pick ups are kinda easy. Okay!

It was 4:30 the line was without exaggeration out the door! Both Package drop boxes were filled so I had no place to drop my postage paid package! An employee named Angela was sitting at her window counting up her drawer! I asked her if she would please take in the postage paid package and she said NO,wait on the line! I asked if she was kidding and with a smug smile she again repeated Wait on the line! I counted 34 people on the line! This post office is the worst and must be a reflection of the manager! Every employee has an attitude!! Replace the manager!!! read more

Why are automated postal package bins always FULL? The USPS has spent thousands of dollars to provide an alternative to the long lines in this post office but for some reason, the incompetent postmaster here can't keep them empty, so our taxpayer dollars go to waste. If there were jail sentences for postmasters, this person should get a 5-year sentence for failing to do this simple task. Are they full because the postmaster views the automated machies as competition? Or is it simple incompetence? It has to be one or the other. read more

They have 3 self serve machines here now. The tellers are always polite. It maintains the standard of service I normally find at USPS locations in Queens. read more
