Thanks Ms. Tammy. As a visitor to Front Royal, your kindness and willingness to help me made a difference in my 2019 Front Royal Adventure. I'm not sure if you are the manager or not, but if you are not, you definitely should be with those customer service skills! If you are already, kudos. 2019, Tammy is making USPS Great Again!

Been here a couple of times to send some packages and my experience here has been satisfactory so far. The parking lot is moderate size with a few parking spaces In the front and a few more in the back. There are two self service machines that you use to buy stamps, print labels, and more. There are never enough staff so there is always a line no matter the time of day. The hours of operation on weekdays are usually 9am to 6 pm which is great compare to usps in Maryland where they closed at 4:30 pm. All in all, I would recommend anyone who need to use usps services to come to this location.

Since the appointment of the new postmaster, service at this branch has deteriorated significantly…read more Package deliveries have become unreliable, with carriers routinely finding excuses not to deliver items and instead leaving notices requiring customers to pick up packages at the post office. When questioned about why packages are not being delivered, we have been told that the new carrier has "his own delivery style" or that it is "the new policy" for customers to pick up packages. If that is truly the case, then what is the purpose of paying shipping fees and having packages addressed for home delivery? For years, our mail carriers provided dependable service, and we showed our appreciation by leaving holiday gifts as a token of gratitude. Unfortunately, the current level of service has eliminated any goodwill that once existed. Customers should not have to make unnecessary trips to the post office simply because delivery personnel choose not to do the job they were hired to do. This branch needs accountability and a serious commitment to customer service. Residents deserve the delivery service they are paying for--not excuses and inconvenience.

This review, like that of A1 Taxi out of Front Royal (which as luck would have it is just up the…read moreroad from Linden), is Useful. You may find it to be other things, but please just understand my aim here is to be Useful. Over the years as my brother and I have taken our annual sojourn on the AT we have learned a few Things. He's learned more than I have because he's wired better that way but some of these Things we've learned together and call Shared Wisdom. Some pertains to hiking and things pertaining to the out of doors, others more generally to Life. Considering that we've walked from the ME/NH border to the Shenandoah Mountains and experienced Stuff along the way it stands to reason that we'd be a bit more comprehensive than when we started out. One of our discoveries is this: Six days of food on your back is totes heavy. Last year's solution involved using a second car and doing a drive-around every other day (drive two cars to the end of a day's worth of walking, leave one car there, return to the beginning of said leg, park second car there, walk the leg to the car parked at the end, drive up to the car at the beginning, drive both cars to the end of the next leg, drive back to where we had finished the prior leg, park, repeat). We could leave food and tents if we didn't need them and beer and stuff we'd rather not carry for six days in the cars and resupply daily or every other day and get biscuits and bacon at convenience stores and we were crazy light but the ordeal kind of involved math and felt too decadent so we didn't want to do it again this year. So this year we decided to cache food in holes and I took a long time making packages I thought maybe bears wouldn't smell in a hole and we took a shovel from the garage and headed south. But on the way I noticed while studying the map that kind of near the trail-road crossings at two-day intervals there were Post Offices. Light bulb. Both were swell and filled the bill perfectly but this one is better because it's like only a half-mile off the trail and there's a store nearby where you can buy a can opener if you forgot yours and maybe a pack of smokes if the walk isn't already hard enough. This is also the first of the two we encountered and inside was Carmen who is hands down the most beautiful postal person I have ever encountered in my short bittersweet life. Prettiest ink east of the Rocky Mountains, I daresay. She took our package wrapped up to fool bears and put it in a cupboard. And when we appeared three days later a little worse for wear and tear but now with said missing can opener there she was and there it was and all was once again right with the world. Useful tip - hikers of the Harper's Ferry to Shenandoah leg of the trail - mail or drop of your cache with Carmen because she'll take care of it and your back won't be breaking. She spoke of camping and morels and other local things and mentioned her fiance because I guess she felt that would be a judicious thing to do. She accepted the sprig of dogwood as a token of our appreciation. She made our day. Even an IRS scandal won't diminish my view of the US government today, thanks to Carmen.

This post office was recently renamed in honor of Winchester native & country legend, Patsy Cline by Pres. Biden which is "Crazy". "I Fall to Pieces" when I think about how fascinating that is. There's a framed article on the wall dated June 29, 2022 describing the story. It was busy but efficient, and clean as a whistle! But don't go "Walkin' after Midnight" or Saturday because you'll find it closed. Hours M-F 12:00-4:00, closed Saturday

The mural, painted by Sheffield Kagy , depicts Luray in 1840 with Louis Ramey's blacksmith shop, farmers and horses with houses and the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background. Not only is the massive colonial brick building historic, built in 1938, built it has many unique architectural features. Inside is fabulous! Lots of rich wood paneling with artistic cutouts, brass mailboxes and mail slots, gold lettering at the windows, yet the wood floor has been preserved by adding carpet. No passport service but it is handicap accessible. Hours Monday-Friday 8:30-4:30

Cool little U.S. Post Office - one which has been here as long as I can remember - it sits right…read moreoff of Route 55 in between Haymarket and The Plains - sitting right in Thoroughfare Gap - a break in the Bull Run mountain chain. It's an interesting little post office for a few reasons - it sits on the side of the road all by its lonesome little self; it is the first country post office I can ever recall seeing with a security fence around the front door (see the picture attached to this review); and the little receipt printers they are using must be 15-20 years old. I went in earlier this week to mail a package that needed to be weighed for proper postage - I decided on a whim to try out the Broad Run PO instead of the Haymarket Post Office - where there is ALWAYS a line and usually only one or two postal clerks. It's a few miles farther out of my way, but always a pretty drive! Well, I was the only one at the Broad Run PO! The clerk was sitting behind a desk in the back when I arrived. I asked him if they get much business - he said yes at times they do - he went on to say that they get customers from Haymarket, The Plains, and Warrenton (as well as the surrounding Broad Run zip code). When I asked for a receipt, that old receipt printer was so very loud and slow - it seemed like it took 2 minutes to print my receipt (it was actually less time than that) - I was somewhat amused and entertained by the fact that after all these years - the same good ole equipment is still functioning and good enough for a country post office.
