    SO BAD EXPERIENCE!!!!! I came with my 2 minors (3 weeks old…read moreand 4 years old) for my scheduled in advance appointment at 9:00. I've been in the office at 8:40 am and waited until my time. Employee (Shanice) took another customer for passport WITHOUT APPOINTMENT. At 9:00 I asked that I need to be served as it is my time already and she asked to wait. Wait for what!?? I called to customer service and they told me there are 2 days walking in the week (Tuesday and Wednesday) and today is THURSDAY!!!! I should have read all negative reviews before to make an appointment in this location! Poor, not professional and UNFAIR experience!

    It's hard, impossible, actually, to imagine a more incompetent conglomeration than FedEx and the…read moreUSPS when assessment of service efficacy is the topic and the net sum of both of these hapless organizations rarely fail to underwhelm. Either one of these utterly useless entities, on its own, can almost guarantee a horrifically sideways transaction, but the sum total of both parts involved virtually ensures, if not a tragic outcome, than at least one sure to have gone sideways. Having dropped an express FedEx envelope at the Buffalo Grove Post office for shipment on July 15, 2025, more than two weeks later FedEx has no record of package/envelope receipt, and because the parcel contained time sensitive media, shipped to Los Angeles and requiring arrival by July 28, 2025 as a pre-condiition to an ensuing and promised refund, I am out over $350.00 due, again, to abject incompetence. Having thrice called both FedEx and the Buffalo Grove post office, each of the six encounters with the ensuing miscreants resulted in no solution whatsoever. Thankfully J.P. Morgan Chase's team of adroit customer service employees and its commitment to quality saved the day and refunded my expended, vaporized, funds in short order and with one phone call and a follow up response to an essentially boilerplate email. One wonders, however, why it should come to this, save the complete and utter incompetence and careless attitude on full display, daily, by the aforementioned, equally haplass, organizations named above. Is it any wonder that Amazon is destroying bricks and mortar entities engaging in e-commerce that entrust their products, and propensity for repeat customer patronage, to the likes of these utterly incompetent trainwrecks? Jeff Bezos deserves every red penny he acquires if the adjunct/dependent variable allows me to never again have to patronize, more less think about, either FedEx and/or the USPS any time soon, if ever again.

    The PO gets a bad rap and rightly so. The busiest times are when there is one window open. When one…read morewindow closes...it's time for a break. And when a new clerk has to take a long swig from the water bottle before helping a customer, it can be infuriating. There was a young clerk patiently helping a family with passports, and disseminating useful information, but I didn't get that person, I got the water bottle drinker...who told me they were out of forms and to go to another location. Which I did. In the next town. And they had told me the wrong info.

    Worst post office in the area... You are better off going to either the Highwood or Deerfield post…read moreoffices. If you're going west, the Northbrook post office on Dundee Rd. is better, and the one on Church near Shermer in Northbrook is the best yet (though really small). I avoid the Highland Park post office unless I absolutely can't get out to another office, or just to drop a package off. If you're just dropping off envelopes, go to a drop box anywhere else (the one in Jewel is good), or you can get trapped in the round-about because of that infernal traffic light. You can't pay me to wait in line here. The staff - goodness bless them - seem to be working hard, but just can't keep up with the demand. There's almost always a line, and it's frequently packed because of how many people refuse to use the kiosk (which can do 75% of what the people waiting in line seem to need). Unfortunately this creates a bottleneck, making it impossible to access the kiosk or the PO boxes, because the line is out the door. Even when you can get to the self-serve kiosk, half the time I'm there it's having technical problems. It's either completely down, or isn't able to perform some service. Even when it's working, it's super slow and the dimension sensors never work, so I have to manually enter everything. At least it seems like the screen got an upgrade sometime last winter. Still, I can't seem to count on the self-service kiosk working. Oh, also, the automatic door there is SLOOOOW and - on two or three occasions - it didn't open all the way (not sure if it was a mechanical issue or because of the wind). If you're in wheelchair or mobility device, you might have problems as well. Entering the lot is a mess, because there's a huge incline that some lower cars will scrape on, and it'll really test your suspension. The eastbound stoplight accommodates left turns into the lot for a few seconds, but only if traffic moves nicely - and nobody in downtown Highland Park seems to drive with urgency. The lot near the building entrance is cramped, and nobody in downtown Highland Park seems to know how to park straight either, so it can be a mess. If you're driving a large SUV or truck, good luck. Parking near the drop-box / Sunset Woods Park entrance is a safer bet. Take it slow when exiting, if you want to keep your muffler, because that ramp transition is even worse on the way out. Seriously, folks; go to the Highwood or Deerfield post office instead. They aren't great, but they still operate better and are much more convenient to get in and out of. The kiosks seem to work better there. If you are going west or south, the Northbrook post office on Church near Shermer or the Techny post offices are WAAAAY better - possibly the best in the area. You can also get a lot of stuff done at the USPS.com website, and save yourself a trip to the post office all-together.
