Never knew this post office existed until recently. Parking is in the back, but you need to drive through an alley to get there (which is fine). Was in and out within 2 minutes. There was only one employee at the front counter and she was very nice.

I was driving on Colorado Blvd on my way to work. I thought to myself... where is the post office in Pasadena. Well, right when I looked up and turned to my right, I saw United States Post Office Pasadena LOL. I was like no way... the universe just answered my question or perhaps I did subconsciously LOL. Anyway, during my break time, I walked over here to drop off an Amazon return item that I had to package and seal which wasn't too bad. It's a small post office that has maybe 2 or 3 stations and some P.O. boxes available. The line was short with two people ahead of me, however, it was about a 10 minutes wait before it was my turn. There was only one person working behind the counter. Once I got up to the counter, it was scan bam thank you mam... 10 secs and I was done and out LOL. The staff was pleasant and nice. I'll be back to use this post office in the future. Funny, I've walked on that side of the street before and never noticed this post office. I guess we don't see it until we're looking for it. So start looking around your surroundings... it may surprise you and answer your questions LOL.

Back Parking lot for US post office - have to access thru an alley but there's not much parking other than the street

No lines quick easy service - parking is a little bit of a challenge. Back parking lot unless lucky to find street parking

You have signs that say "Mask or face coverings are required inside our lobby" yet when I calmly pointed out to a clerk that a customer refused to put one on after I asked politely, she said that nothing can be done. If something is "required," as it should be with a surging covid omicron, you should at the very least ask the unmasked to comply and then not serve them if they don't. The customer was rude to me saying "take care of yourself!" yet the clerk was more friendly to the selfish customer, perhaps to appease the bully? - while I and everyone else in line - maybe 20+ people - were being respectful to each other by wearing their masks indoors. Something is certainly wrong here! Follow what you post. Guidelines from the state are there to protect all. Yet you allowed the selfishness of one person be allowed at the expense of everyone who was being compliant. To the man who thinks I should "take care of myself"... I did! And I take care of others by respectfully wearing a mask during an outbreak. But you, sir, are simply selfish. (And it certainly didn't help that you were watching something out loud, forcing everyone to listen to your show while you laughed and spewed your potentially harmful germs for others to endure.)

This mail carrier physically and verbally assaults customers when they inquire about the ongoing mail problems.
E=mc² E.

The mail carriers at this post office are outright Rude, inept and abusive mail delivery carriers at this station. Today on 12/14/2022 at 11:01 AM this USPS worker/carrier pictured below both physically and verbally assaulted me after I inquired her about the ongoing problems with the mail not being delivered. Today on 12/14/2022 at 11:01 AM This mail carrier displayed a very nasty, degrading and outright dehumanizing behavior towards me, the customer. I have already spent over $32 trying to get a letter delivered to my neighbor. I have tried to mail it multiple times, and each time this mail carrier flops. She does not deliver our mail properly in this apartment complex. There is a history of ongoing and long-standing problems with our mail not being getting delivered. I have spent a total of $32 attempting to deliver a letter via registered, tracked, signature confirmation to my neighbor, who lives in the apartment unit directly across from me. I have attempted to mail the same exact letter multiple times, due the neighbor never getting the letter and I never getting any return receipts. So today at 10:57 AM, So I finally see this mail carrier deliver the mail only at the mail boxes. She never goes to my neighbor to knock on their to deliver this signature confirmation letter I paid money for, nor does she knock on my door. But she falsely scans it as "Delivered: Left with Individual", which is an outright lie! (I know this because I had these letters on text notifications and I received a notification literally 30 seconds after I see her pass our units with that "Delivered: Left with Individual" notification. No one came to my door to knock and no one knocked on the recipient's door. I go to the apartment mail boxes and see the letter. I take it and track down this mail carrier several feet away. I ask her about the inaccuracy and the constant, ongoing problems with our mail not getting delivered properly. I ask why every time I try to send a letter with signature confirmation to my neighbor that she does not deliver it and I never get any receipts back, which is what I paid for. She grabs the letter from me and refuses to give me the letter back. I ask her what her name is and she refuses to identify herself. I try to turn on my camera to document this mail carrier and while I'm trying to turn on the camera, this mail carrier physically pushes me screaming that she doesn't want to be filmed. I informed her that I will be contacting the US Postal Inspector General and she arrogantly told me to "go ahead!". She is quite comfortable in her cockiness, as if she is certain no one will hold her accountable for her atrocious behavior. (Some of these mail carriers are straight ghetto in handling things and doing their job that they get paid for.) She has zero customer service skills. The mail carriers at this station outright lie to your face and register false tracking information. In addition, this mail carrier also curses and calls me degrading names like "weirdo", essentially both physically and verbally assaulting me. I wanted to speak to the station manager first before putting this incident out in public on social media, but I cannot get through to any live person. Oh well, guess it's going to be public. So I am documenting this on Yelp and I've filed with the USPS Inspector General. These people need better home training, let alone customer service training. A dog knows how to act and behave better than these mail carriers.

I am an exhibiting professional artist, and my recent experience with Box & Ship in Pasadena was…read moreabsolutely unacceptable. I contracted Box & Ship to handle the packing and return shipment of my original oil painting and custom frame from the 2025 California Art Club Gold Medal Exhibition. Their responsibility was simple: pack my artwork properly, with all of my original packing material, that I clearly had instructions to save, so it would arrive safely. Instead, their negligence, of not saving my original packing material and their poor repackaging, caused damage to my frame, and their customer service afterward towards me was dismissive and unprofessional. Here are the facts: Improperly sealed box: When I received my painting via FedEx on September 10, 2025, one end of the box was barely taped shut and nearly open. Only two pieces of tape barely holding one end of the box closed. My original packing material was mostly missing inside: There was very little packing material holding the painting and frame in the box. The artwork could shift around freely during shipping. Missing original packing: When I shipped my painting to the exhibition in July, I personally packed it with bubble wrap and peanuts so it was tight and secure....it could not move at all. It arrived to the California Art Club Gold Medal Exhibition undamaged and safe. However, after waiting 3-4 weeks to have my painting shipped back to me and Box & Ship finally got around to send it back, most of my original packing material was missing, leaving the piece vulnerable. Resulting damage: Because of their careless packing, the inner wood liner of my custom, hand-finished frame sustained a full break. I hand-finished this frame myself to match the painting, and repairing it will cost $200 in labor and materials. I have extensive photographic documentation showing the poor packing job and the resulting damage. When I contacted Box & Ship to request reimbursement, their response was dismissive. Instead of taking accountability, they told me: "The California Art Club insures the Gold Medal. Not Box & Ship. Please contact Eire and take it up with them." This reply is unacceptable. Not only does it deflect accountability for their poor packing practices, but it also demonstrates a complete disregard for the artists whose work they are entrusted to protect. Whether or not the California Art Club maintains insurance on artworks exhibited, the fact remains that Box & Ship themselves caused the damage through careless handling. As an artist, this experience has been infuriating. I will never trust Eric and Box & Ship again, nor use their poor shipping services. Their negligence not only damaged my frame, but their dismissive attitude shows they do not value their customers or the responsibility of safeguarding important artworks. I strongly urge the California Art Club to reconsider its relationship with Box & Ship. By continuing to use this company, they risk not only their reputation, but damaging more artists' works and undermining their commitment to protecting the contributions of their artist members, which make all their exhibitions possible. For fellow artists: think twice before entrusting your artwork to Box & Ship in Pasadena, California. Based on my bad experience, they are very slow to ship artwork, apparently have too much work for them to handle in a respectable time frame, careless in their packing and refuse to take responsibility when their negligence causes damage.

I've been to this UPS Store several times, mostly to process certain Amazon.com returns. They're…read moreusually well-staffed and fast. A line rarely forms. Best time to go is during regular business hours (I try to go during my lunch break). The staff is knowledgeable and will get you in and out with no issues. The parking lot is cramped and super awkward so if you can't find parking, parking on Locust St. (this store is in the shopping plaza that's on Lake Av. and Locust St.) and then walking over a bit is usually the move. 10/10 except for the subpar parking situation.

I stopped by this UPS location on my way to an appt in Pasadena for the first time on Mon, 9/8/2025…read moreat around 9:45 AM. I came in right after one other patron to drop off four small packages and only needed a receipt. Unfortunately, the staff member who assisted me did not smile, greet me, or provide even a basic level of courtesy. The interaction was very short, but it still managed to feel disappointing because I wasn't expecting much--just a meh experience. Interior: The store was very clean and tidy in the morning. Parking: The store is in a small lot that does have parking, but spots are limited. The lot itself is laid out in a U-shape, which makes it a bit unique compared to standard parking layouts. Store Hours as of September 2025: Mon-Fri: 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM Sat: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Sun: 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM I probably won't be returning because of the location, but I do appreciate that they're open seven days a week, which is convenient.

It's been awhile since I've needed UPS services. This location has been refreshed a bit since my…read morelast visit. It seems less cluttered. The service, alas, remains the same. Staff attitude ranges from perfunctory to brusque. It seems clear no amount of one-star ratings will change that, despite rote replies from the business. For me, the advantages of this UPS location are its proximity and that it opens 30 minutes before most other branches nearby. I come here when I require only the simplest of tasks--bringing in a pre-labeled, properly taped-up package to be scanned and shipped. For anything more complex or requiring more staff assistance, I go elsewhere, usually the location on Colorado next to Vons. Note that this branch is a smaller one and only has a front door, which both customers and UPS trucks use to load/unload. As such, after scanning, you are required to place your package in the customer area, and I've always had to do this on my own, no matter the weight or number of items. The trucks load the packages from here. There is no back area where staff takes and stores your package like at other branches. Treat yourself to a smoothie next door after your efforts.

THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE FRANCHISE OWNER NEVINE AND ABOUT HER ONLY. My experience with the other…read moreemployees here has been great and they have been very kind to me. Never in my life did I think I would ever write a review for a UPS store, but after my experience at this specific location it compelled me to write one. Mind you I rarely write bad reviews and I have a lot of patience, but the owner (Nevine) of this location was extremely rude to me when I was trying to speak to her about picking up a package. I missed my original delivery date for my package because it needed a signature and they proceeded to send my package for pick up at this location. I went to pick it up today, but my issue is my ID doesn't match the address and name on my package because of multiple different reasons. I had proof of the purchase, proof of the actual email from UPS with tracking, and multiple credit cards that showed the matching name - she still refused to hand my package over to me which I understand policies, but she wasn't offering me any solution to fix this issue except to call UPS or else she was going to ship the package back to the sender. While trying to explain to her my situation I was getting frustrated because her tone was very condescending, she kept raising her voice at me, and she kept cutting me off while she was repeating the same thing constantly. She also was telling me to have it shipped to my house - which I originally did, but unfortunately missed it - and then when I asked her if I would be able to pay for her to have it redelivered she said no. How is that not possible, but you're telling me to ship it to my house? I understand her trying to protect the package due to fraud nowadays, but on the official UPS page it states that if your last name and address don't match on your ID, you can show the UPS tracking alongside your identification regardless if it matches or not and you should be able to retrieve your package. This is from the OFFICIAL UPS WEBSITE and she continued to say "this is what they're telling me to do" and kept refusing to give me my package. Mind you these instructions that I found to follow are also on a link on the email from my tracking from UPS. She didn't even bother reading what I was showing her and continued to just keep raising her voice at me. She kept repeating herself that I need to show matching identification because there is "so much fraud nowadays" and "anybody can have an email" when I was trying to show her my proof. Which made no sense to me because shortly after she had a family member come in to handle what looked like paperwork to be shipped out and her family member who is not an employee was behind the counter. So you're telling me there's a lot of fraud nowadays, but it's okay for you to have someone who isn't an employee behind the counter? Make it make sense. On top of that - I know she was talking bad about me to her family member because when I left to try to contact UPS on the phone she said something to her family member when I walked away, and when I walked back in to speak to her again she said something again and then continued to give me a fake smile afterwards while saying something under her breath. Completely uncalled for and unprofessional. As much as she was clearly frustrated - so was I. Moving forward I'm going to call corporate as well to file a complaint because her customer service was ridiculous and I will avoid this UPS location by all means. I ended up resolving my issue with customer service, and completely understand the issue with my ID not matching, but my issue here was how she spoke to me and handled the situation in such a degrading way. Also, if you look at other bad reviews basically stating the same issues I had with her being rude and condescending - you can see the owner herself, Nevine, has replied back to multiple reviews still arguing. Says a lot about her character and it's unfortunate she's the owner of this franchise.
