Way back in the 1720's, it served as a grocery store. In 1757, a barbershop sprung up in part of the building. But what makes this place significant in United States history is what happened here in 1783. That's when it received it's first government post rider. That makes the building the oldest continuously operated post office in the country. So yesterday, I walked in, bought a stamp, and mailed a letter there. My brush with history!

I would highly recommend this location especially for those that live in the Hartford area and want to send things out past 5 pm (and want lower prices than fed ex or ups).

A lot of that includes selling off my long-time hobby collection of sports cards through various social media sites. And that means I've made dozens of trips to this post office to ship out whatever I sold. So on this #ThankYouThursday I want to give a special "Thank You" shout out to Robin and Alex who have guided me and helped me over the last eight months. They've educated me on the ins and outs of Flat Rate boxes, First Class Shipping and Tracking options, Media Mail and the unbelievably expensive costs to ship things to Canada. This is the only place I use to mail out my cards and the like. So Thank You, Robin and Alex. #ThankYouThursday

I stopped by the Bloomfield Post Office this morning to ship a package to Canada. The outer design…read moreof this Post Office is really nice. It's an all brick, fairly large building, with a decent amount of parking spaces. The inside shows its age, but as long as the job is done, it doesn't matter. There were no customers waiting when I arrived. They had me fill out a customs form for my package, in the minute it took me to fill it out the line extended by two. Thankfully the wait was short. The two ladies working were pleasant enough, but I could tell, they'd rather be doing other things on this Saturday morning. Should you need to purchase packaging materials, tape, stamps, or greeting cards you can find them at this post office. They provided me with the tracking number, which I have shared with the recipient. This is a nice post office in town, that will satisfy your shipping needs.

This post office was not out of my way and at 10:00am, they're open. Easy! The clerk was helpful, friendly and efficient though he had to go in the back to hunt up some postcard stamps for me. It's a small post office and the only thing missing is a drive up and drop off lane, and an automated postage vending machine. [Review 18410 overall - 76 in Connecticut - 1932 of 2022.]

I wish I…read morehad the name of the gentleman at the counter that helped me, because I owe him many thanks!!! I came to this post office for only one reason last week, because it's the ONLY one I've found in the area open until 6pm on weeknights. If you work until 4:30 or 5 and don't want to wait until Saturday or take time off of work to actually go in and speak with someone in a post office, then this is the only option around open late enough. I had to talk to someone, plead my case and see what my options were. We recently received our shipment of postcard Save The Dates for our 2020 wedding. We sent two to ourselves, as a test, just by dropping them in a blue mailbox outside of a random town's post office, and they arrived in rough shape! Of course there were all kinds of marks/stamps on the side with the stamp and addresses, but then one of the pictures on the top left corner on back even had black ink smudged all over it. This same thing happened to both postcards. There were even scrapes under the address the cards were being sent to where some of the paper was peeled back. After putting so much thought and energy into which pictures and how many we wanted on the postcard, I was not at all happy with how they arrived in the mail. Soooooo, this is why I needed to go present my case, and my other 105 postcards to the Hartford Post Office after work, because I didn't want to wait til the weekend or drop the rest in a box where they'd arrive to our friends and family in an unacceptable condition. I went in to ask about hand cancelling the stamps, and was told everything is run through machines nowadays and that mail isn't hand canceled. I pulled out the stack of postcards and starting describing the damage that occurred when mailing my two 'test' postcards and that I was trying to prevent that from happening to the rest. As I flipped a postcard over and he realized what they were and that these were real photos of us, he said okay I see that it looks like you put a lot of work into them, what I can do is walk them to the back and see if the sorters will hand sort these so the machines don't damage them. I thanked him and left, understanding it was up to the sorters and even if he asked, it may not happen. I was hoping they were in a good mood and not overly busy and able to honor the request, but it was a mystery until my friend sent me a picture of the postcard she recieved the next day. It was in PERFECT condition, no damage or marks anywhere. The postcard looked just as it did when I left the stack with the most helpful man at the post office, and I appreciate him and his efforts, as well as whoever was involved in hand sorting them! I even offered to separate them into 2 piles, ones being sent out of state and ones staying in CT, but he wouldn't allow it. I was told that is what the sorters would do. Thank you USPS!!!

Everything arrived in perfect order and the boxes & inserts that Scott made were amazing. This is a family business, run by Scott and his wife, and they care about what they do. It shows.
