Once I heard that USPS was going to get rid of this location. I lived right around the corner, and…read morethis was very disappointing to me. I came here often. Sometimes to get stamps, sometimes just to have them weigh my parcel so I did not accidentally put to much postage on it. All things considered, I was happy this place was so close, but always a bit annoyed when I had to come here. In the age of Fedex and UPS, lots of people criticize USPS. Here is something that I love about them: the one-rate boxes. They have boxes that you can cram as much stuff as possible into and it is always the same rate. Here is the problem with USPS. Fedex and UPS are much more conveniently located and spread throughout cities. I was lucky to have USPS so close, but not that lucky. Because this is the main branch, it would ALWAYS be packed. Most recently I was here bright and early at 8am. There was only one employee working and I had about 4 people in front of me. I am thankful the employee was cheerful and SO FAST. She really did a good job. I only waited about 10 minutes. By the time I left, the line behind me was twice as long. It will probably get worse as the day goes on, but more employees will join her at the counter. I recall that since I was a little kid, I have never been to a Post Office that did not have a huge line. That is why I used to despise going there when I was little. I still feel that same angst as I walk through to automatic doors. Michael S. is right to point out that they sure do have a TON of P.O. Boxes. And I never recall being uncomfortably warm while waiting in the huge lines, so he must also be right about the air conditioning. Overall, I like the employees at this Post Office. They are friendly and really kick butt doing their job while keeping customers happy. I also truly hope they decided (or decide) not to close down this branch. While I do not live as close as I used to, I can only imagine that the crowds at other Post Offices will only get 100 times worse if this branch is closed. Sometime less is more, but I guarantee that saying will not hold true for the number of Post Offices that the government has in any given region. While I cannot say that I am a fan, this Post Office was A-OK!

Tried to drop off packages this evening, however I chose to turn around and drive 15 mins back home…read morebecause a homeless man was standing in front of the doors staring at me once I parked. He kept unbuttoning and re buttoning his pants. I planned on going in if he walked off or if someone had told him to leave but after waiting 10 minutes I left. Won't bother coming back here.

As a senior citizen, I was overwhelmed by the task of returning a heavy, oversized box to Amazon,…read moreplus following all of the online procedures. Thank goodness for Kayleen, who carried in this huge box singlehandedly from my car, then printed and handled the labels. She was patient and totally proficient, and I could see that she totally had this situation under control. I am so grateful for this experience, and look forward to using UPS again and again.

Unfortunately, I wrote down her name so I could write this review and now I can't find it! Argh! Thank you! Keep up the great work! I've been researching my family back many generations after finding ancient documents in a box. All I knew before was I'm named after my ancestors, but I was never told why. When I retired, I decided to take the time to find out. The odyssey has lasted for two years and will continue onward! I've digitized and researched everything, paper by paper, with the affordable and friendly help of UPS! The research continues! Life is good when you learn where you come from. My ancestors include a lieutenant who fought in the American Revolution, a noble social worker who transformed public hospitals to help the needy and was even elected to the state senate and an immigrant who won the Medal of Honor in the Civil War.

Probably not the best post office in the world, but it got the job done…read more I'm not going to give you the full background because it is a rather long story, but I needed to get a small package to Sydney, Australia as fast as humanly possible. The package arrived at my door at 4:50 p.m. on a Wednesday, so I jumped in my car to mail it at USPS. (Recently I used UPS to send my sister a package and learned that it is more expensive and takes longer to reach people. She will never let me forget it). Well, low and behold, most USPS close at 5 p.m.! I then called UPS since they are open later and basically thought fuggit, I'll pay more if I can get this out now. Turns out UPS would have cost more and they didn't have the 1-3 day option that USPS has so it would have taken longer. (Why does anyone use UPS?). At this point it was about 5:20 and I figured I'd have to wait until the next day to mail the package. That's when I was struck with the brilliant thought that maybe other USPS stores are open later (why that didn't hit me at the beginning, I do not know). I found out that this one was open until 6 p.m. AND it was 4 minutes from where I was getting dinner at 6 p.m. (although even if it wasn't I would have just been super late to dinner because this package was more important. Basically the heavens were smiling on me at that moment). I raced to this USPS and made it here at 5:40 p.m. Once inside there was only one person in line, but minutes after there was a line of about six of us (again, thank you heavens for helping me beat that line). There was one cashier and he was excruciatingly slow when helping a customer. I was really freaked out that they might kick everyone out at 6 p.m. That's when my savior descended in the form of a no nonsense lady employee who basically started blasting through the line. Unlike the other employee, she had all of us who weren't prepared (totally guilty) fill out forms off to the side so she could help others who were ready. She was a multitasking machine. Yes, it came out to about $93 to get a package to Australia in 1-3 days (and stupid weekends don't count so it came out to five days), but again out of all my options, that was the cheapest and the fastest. The clientele who come here range from all walks of life. I never felt completely unsafe, but at the same time if someone told me there was a shooting in the parking lot, I wouldn't be surprised. Hopefully, I'll never have to mail something again in my life, but if I do and it is after 5 p.m., I wouldn't hesitate to go here.

Worst customer service ever. Both of the gentlemen were so rude when I finally got to the front…read moreafter the clerk was flirting and checking out the girl from head to toe as she walked out. Then I got to spoke to the supervisor who was also rude and very unhelpful. I had a simple question and asked if my package was here to pick up because the tracking number said it was here. He looked at me with a disgusted look and said why would we have that here. So rude terrible customer service! Wish I didn't live here and had to use this post office as my own. 05/16/25
