I've been coming to the Portland branch at 400 Congress Street since I moved here last year, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it's always an uplifting experience. All the staff are super knowledgeable and helpful (even the slightly grumpy guy), and when I was in a transient status for my first few months here they were especially great at helping me finesse multiple mail forwarding/PO box/re-forwarding stages (which can get all kinds of complicated). Sure, there are lines sometimes; even when I've had to wait here, they move things along at a good clip (and don't forget that USPS isn't funded or staffed up as much as it could be, which isn't the fault of the employees). It's the little interactions that make daily life better, and coming into this branch is one of them.

This was the most wretched post office experience I've ever had…read more Ten people were just waiting in line, which is no fault of the clerks usually. However, one clerk came out to help the other, then suddenly said she was not available to help. This resulted in 25 minutes of waiting in line to buy stamps. 25. No exaggeration. The one clerk, Lindy, was great and running the show on her own while several other employees popped their heads out, saw the growing line, and disappeared again. While standing and waiting, six people joined the line, waited, and left after seeing how poor the service was. This seems like a place where service is not valued. Except Lindy. You go, Lindy.

Nothing harsh or authoritarian about this library. Everything looks soft and inviting, from the large windows that give lots of natural light to the plants and art that grace the walls. Lots of space inside, nothing is cramped or crowded, very easy to find a spot to spread out and read a book or do some research. Side rooms for when you wish to talk or quiet areas when you want to be alone with your own thoughts. Of course it has computers and Wi-Fi as well as a nice selection of periodicals and other library necessaries. The librarians were friendly and helpful and you could tell that they enjoyed their jobs of helping people. South Portland isn't the largest, most historic or cutest library in Maine. It is one of the most relaxing, friendliest and useful.

Had outstanding service from our carrier for several years. If a package didn't fit in our mailbox,…read morehe would deliver it to the covered porch so it wouldn't get rained or snowed on. Sadly, he must have retired...we miss him. Now, our packages are laid on the ground in the driveway; rain, shine, snow, whatever. They are left in a spot not visible from any window in the house, so we don't even know when a package has been left there...and sometimes it occurs after dark. We appealed to the post office that packages should be placed under cover in a safer location, but were told that packages that don't fit in a mailbox will be left in front of the garage, as it is closer to the mailbox than the covered porch. Yes, those additional 10 steps are killers. Customer service is dead at the Scarborough, Maine post office. Will use FedEx anytime we're given the choice.

It's a smaller UPS compared to many others, so it can get congested with customers quickly; like just three or four people and it feels claustrophobic. The store is usually very clean. And when there's no one else in line, you can get in and out very quickly. It's easy to drop off prepaid boxes (though there's not a lot of counter space; one big box and you'll have to start stacking), it's easy to have them scan/process QR codes for Amazon returns, it's easy to email the store for prints (and they're super patient helping with that). The biggest issue is their staffing. Sometimes there's only one person working (it's infrequent that there's anyone within sight when I first enter the store; sometimes the person in the back will shout-out a greeting though)!. Picture this - because it happens often here -: three customers (one who needs thirty prints in color, one who doesn't really have their box taped or even the address they were sending their cookies to, one who needs to just drop off a return) all walk in at the same time vs one employee. Let's be patient and appreciative out there, folks. Open 7:30am to 6pm Monday through Friday; open at 10am to 4pm on Saturdays. Closed on Sundays.
