A family member utilized the Hold for Pickup service without my knowledge. I went to the office today after being notified that the item had been delivered and because I had availability to pick it up. When I arrived, the gentleman working informed me that this office does not accept packages mailed to them. I explained that I understood, and that the package was created through Click-N-Ship, which is eligible for Hold for Pickup, and that I had not requested this service myself. Despite this, he repeatedly spoke over me and even made a gesture to quiet me while I was simply trying to clarify that I do not typically have items shipped to the office and that I was only there because I was told the package was ready for pickup. After the third time he interrupted me, I told him I did not have time to argue over something so minor. At that point, he tossed the package in my direction. The conversation was factual and could have been handled much more professionally. I understand the staff may deal with difficult situations daily, but this situation escalated unnecessarily because he was not actively listening. I am reaching out because I do not appreciate the way I was spoken to today, and I felt the interaction was disrespectful and inappropriate. read more

Always delivers on wrong address I get my nieghbors mail Its that insane USPS is so terrible Not even communicating on text or call Why amazon can do it and USPS Fail so bad read more

They marked my package as delivered in/at mailbox but it was not there. I called them and tried to have it redelivered. It never arrived. I went to the post office to check if it's there, and they could not locate it. The employee at the front desk was rude and made a "smart" remark after I said my package was missing. I asked for a refund for my item, but they said i had to message the person I bought it from and have them file an insurance claim. That just doesn't make any sense to me since usps is the one who lost the package in delivery not the seller. Will not be ordering anything thru usps in the future as I am scared more packages will disappear. read more

don't know how to answers their fucking phones. Have called atleast 15 times and no response. Says my package was delivered and is NO WHERE TO BE FOUND read more

Get local posts office located in the Westwood Village. This post office has the self serve machine for packages which is excellent when the line is long . Plus USPS has live humans for handling at the counters serving all your postal needs from stupid questions , stamps and packages. Be nice to these people there doing a job you don't wanna. PO Box's are also for rent so Id enquirer about one should the need arrive. You may get stuck on waiting list but not very long from my experience. USPS has a medium sized parking lot for 12 cars which is open most of the day. Handicap parking space open for those with special needs. Grab a book of stamps for the road and support the USPS? read more

Carrier tried to crumple a package into our locking mailbox and damaged the package while leaving it hanging halfway out of the mailbox where it got soaked by rain. Couldn't bother delivering the package appropriately. Thanks for drenching and crumpling my stuff guy. After I navigated the labyrinth that is the USPS website to file a complaint, I got a call from USPS telling me to file a claim and they'd talk to the carrier. I totally believe that. Suuuure. read more

Lost package. Opened a case online , Westwood calls after a week and says we spoke with your mail carrier and a package was delivered but it wasn't the package that's missing. It has tracking and they didn't even confirm it was the package. They closed the case. Had to re open on main number. This location also refuses to pick up the phone. Called 30 times in the past three days. Something must be done. This is our tax money wasted on these people read more

They are super helpful at this Station, and the Employees have all been there for a long time!

The Seattle Distribution Center willfully delays packages and mail. This time a package that was supposed to arrived at the latest on 2/12/2024 was sent from the Seattle Distribution Center to San Bernardino (instead of north to Skagit County) and they sent it back only to have the Seattle Distribution Center send it to Minneapolis and they sent it on to St. Paul. This is not a new issue. Seattle Distribution Center has been doing this for several years. Folks waiting for their medications are having the same issues. Willfully delaying or rerouting mail around the country. No wonder they lose $16,000,000,000+ ANNUALLY. Incompetence, thy name is USPS Seattle Distribution Center. read more

I have lived in my ZIP Code for well over 24 years. At that time the post office ran very efficiently and we got our mail every day. usually we don't get mailed delivered at least one day a week. But here it is, December 21 and our condo building has not gotten one piece of mail in the last two days! And just before Christmas. Cards.and letters have not been picked up. THIS IS ABSURD!!! I have informed delivery, and I'm waiting at least for Christmas cards. They do not answer their phone, and they only way to talk to them is actually going to the post office. I have done this numerous times with no results.They do not answer their phone, and they only way to talk to them is actually going to the post office. I have done this numerous times with no results. I suggest that everyone reading this send a complaint email, to the postmaster general Seattle division, and let them know what is going on.and let them know what is going on. Whatever happened to the belief in " through rain, through snow, through gloom of night, it is their duty to deliver the mail". (not the exact quote, but close". Thank you for reading my rantings, it helps relieve the stress of life today! read more

Refused to deliver packages for over a month because there was construction on one side of the street. Apparently, if the mail carrier feels unsafe, they have discretion to chose not to deliver mail to a particular location. It's funny, though: garbage, Prime, SDOT, and everyone else in the neighborhood didn't feel the same way and continued to access the street day-in, day-out. Worse still, when I went to the post office every day to pick up my undelivered mail, I was met with absurdly and comically rude employees (seriously, it is not uncommon to be yelled at). I'm sorry I'm picking up the mail you refused to deliver? I mean, what else am I supposed to do, not get mail? (And I still don't get it, how do these people see their roles at the post office; do they think their jobs are something other than mail processing and delivery?) Anyway, one high note is that the manager now delivers mail to this street. Me and my neighbors are thankful for this but geez, if I refused to not do my job under silly pretenses with an antisocial attitude I'd certainly be fired. read more

Terrible customer service. Lazy delivery. They did not answer the phone when I needed to know about my package that was supposed to be there. Never again will I use a merchant that uses the USPS!!! read more

I placed an online order from a website, the tracking said it was delivered but it never was. So I opened a case online, and got a call from someone that same day. The person was apologetic and seemed to want to resolve this quickly. They asked lots of questions and details, and assured me they would contact the post person directly, and they would report back on what might have happened. I felt confident that they were on top of things and would find my package promptly. After being told I would be updated the next day, they ended the call. Within minutes I got an email that my case was resolved and it asked for customer service feedback. I thought this was odd they would resolve my case so quickly, but I felt okay that they would find the lost package since the person on the phone seemed on top of things. The next 3 days, there was no communication. I called on the fourth day, no one answered. Over the next month I called every other day. Only 4 of those times, someone answered the phone. Each time they collected my case number and all of the details, and said someone would call me back the following day. I even emailed these details to someone on the phone for them to pass on to a supervisor. Now it's been months. There's no further update, and I can't get a hold of literally anyone who can help. I am now out a $55 order (not to mention the $7.95 I paid for shipping lol). This is especially frustrating, because it's not like I was the one shipping a package. This is literally an order from a website. I have no idea how it's packaged or what color it is, or if it's in a box or a bag. These details were all required when I was filling out the online case number. Our postman is really nice & reliable, so this is a deeper problem within the Westwood post office. They are severely understaffed and the people who do work there seem to be so busy that they don't have time to help anyone or follow up. At this point it isn't even worth the time I've already invested in resolving this. I should've known the first time they didn't call me back that it was pointless to pursue. Westwood post office needs to do better. read more

I read through a lot of the poor reviews and they seem to be mostly about items arriving damaged or arriving right at closing time and expecting to be helped or other things that could possibly not be related specifically to this location. I've never had an issue here to complain about. Yes, sometimes there is a really long line. It's the post office, folks, it's the same at all of them. That's not specific to this office. But, sometimes there is no line at all and you'll feel like you've finally cashed in on that good karma! I imagine the folks are nicer in the morning as it doesn't seem like a fun job and people are jerks about their mail and I wouldn't want to deal with that all day either. Just be patient and kind. This location also can help do your passport, which is helpful! I think I went online and made an appointment and they helped with all the paperwork to get our baby's passport application sent. read more

Ok, I rarely give a single star for anything. But your driver says he can't deliver my package because he can't get inside my building. Huh! I'm not in a building and get to my stoop from the sidewalk. This is happened before. When I call to try and correct the issue I get the nationwide number. I have a 37-52 minute wait and the computer promises my issue to be handled within 2-3 business days. Well, you guys will only attempt one more delivery, tomorrow. So what am I expected to do? Do I actually have to come into the Westwood Village office? Would that even help? This type of service is why I do my best to avoid USPS on all deliveries when possible! read more

The delivery of my reptile food looks like someone reenacted the hallway scene in Ace Ventura. Jokes aside, I'm appalled at how this package showed up at my doorstep. The complete disregard in the handling of a package that clearly alerts you it contains LIVE ANIMALS is mind-blowing. The containers inside had even spilled open. Those lids are difficult to get off with your own two hands! I suppose I'm counting my blessings it wasn't containing an animal that was a bit more delicate. read more

See all

This place is perpetually packed. Not sure what's going on, but there's almost always a line. A long line. Very, very, long.... line. I try to find some kind of no-line sweet spot. Maybe 2ish in the afternoon? Dunno, it's a crapshoot. May god have mercy on soul if you actually have to do any sort of post office business here and there's a line. Get ready for a long wait. read more

This is my neighborhood post office and they are so sweet to me every time I come in. Thwarted do their best to get through every customer as efficiently as possible and they are all very knowledgeable and helpful. read more

This post office doesn't always process packages the same day. For example, if you put a package in the lobby drop box or the drive up box on a Tuesday at 1pm, it won't get an acceptance scan until 24 hours later. There are several pick up times listed on the boxes but those should be removed or clarified if that just applies to letters. So heads up, if you need a package scanned the day you mail it, you need to stand in line, COVID era or not, and have a clerk scan it. It's convenient to print out postage at home or at the post office self service kiosk but if you are going to have to stand in line to get the same day processing, then what's the point. A lot of people sell on line and are held to certain timelines, usually same day or 1 day handling time. If someone pays me on a Monday after the PO closes and I mail it on Tuesday that is considered 1 day handling. But the PO scans it 24 hours later on Wednesday so it's now late. When it's late, customers can leave negative feedback on the sellers profile that other buyers can see. Also a defect is added by eBay to the sellers account even though the seller did everything right. Sellers can appeal a defect but it's denied in this scenario. Too many negative reviews and defects hurts the seller's status which can scare away buyers and result in the sellers product getting less preferential placement on eBay. When you sell one a month it's not a big deal but when you sell 20-30 a month, the frustration adds up quickly. Sometimes the package never gets scanned and never gets delivered or gets delivered 40 days later and it's staying inside the US border. The buyer is understandably upset but the package is no longer under my control so what can I do? I've explained all of the above, over several years, to employees at the PO and by calling the 1 800 number. Nobody cares thus the negative review here. read more

I paid $7.75 for a priority mail envelope to be sent from Chicago to NY on 10/05/2020 for medical documents related to an appointment today. It's 10/09/2020 and has yet to arrive. It didn't even leave IL until late 10/07/2020. My son sent a card to his grandparents in NY this past Wednesday and they already received it?? I attempted to apply for a refund, but the website related priority mail was not eligible for refunds. The federal government needs to relinquish control of the USPS to AMAZON. At least they're a company that gets things out in the time promised, otherwise they provide a refund. The USPS is a money pit of a joke. read more

Came in yesterday to pick up a certified letter. It was my first time here. They had a small line, but all of the counters were open. I noticed they were friendly and helpful to patrons. One worker was really good at explaining to someone how to forward mail that didn't understand the process. They offered to let those who were there to just pick up something go to a separate line which was really helpful to me and others, greatly speeding up the line. I noticed they sell greeting cards here. It wouldn't cross my mind to buy a card at the post office. That's a convenience I'll remember for next time. Only about a dozen parking spaces here but it's by the mall so you could just walk over from there if their lot was full. read more

Honestly, not everyone that has to go to the post office knows how to mail packages, or is elderly and needs a little direction at where things are in the building. The workers will act and treat you like you're the biggest inconvenience and treat you like so. I was in line watching them treat people this way over and over. Even the couple in front of me were talking to themselves saying "a little kindness would go a long way in here"... if you have a little time drive down the street to another location, this location can't handle a small line of customers without getting snippy and overwhelmed. read more

Have been in here twice due to mail issues and no one gives a darn. The first time the younger girl Said "oh if it happens again I will write them up" (my mail was being sent return to sender even though it was my name in the mailbox) 2-3 weeks later I came back and she was behind the counter, with her mouth full of something, and when they asked her to speak to me she was suddenly off the clock and someone else had to come out. The excuse, budget cuts crippling the post office. So I pretty much get to deal with the issue along with everyone else where I live. They say it's not our problem but it is. Junk mail and letters left on the counter because the names are not in mailboxes for all of us to look at. They don't try to even make it look like they tried and the actual post office couldn't care less... lovely. read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! NO PASSPORT PHOTOS!!! Despite what it says online when making the appointment. This location lies, they do not have the ability to take passport photos, they will say its "broken" but look at other reviews and it clearly shows this has been the case forever. They tell you to go to the RiteAide, who uses a standard digital camera. The staff at USPS is not helpful, doesnt care. No one would be sad to see this place pull up stakes and leave. If you want to get treated like a wolf in a chicken convention, then by all means pay this place a visit. It's a fantastic way to take what would otherwise be a productive and positive day and make it infuriating. Their jobs are secure, and their attitudes display every bit of it. read more

No. I came here one time and that was enough. If I lived local, I'd go out of my way to visit another location. There was nowhere to park and once I finally got inside, there was a super-snarky employee who was less than helpful when I had a customs question. Skip it. It's not worth the headache. read more

The service here is excellent. Every employee gives 110 % every day and is always friendly and positive. I have used this post office since I moved here one year ago and every visit has been a good experience. I appreciate the efforts all the employees put forth considering the lack of support and funding from the people in charge of the USPS. A sincere thank you to all the people who work at this facility. ( It would be wonderful if the city or someone would fix the pothole next to the drive thru mail box . ) read more

Spoke to a guy on the phone who works here. He called me to let me know that they have a package waiting there for me, I missed his call. I called the number back before I realized he left me a voicemail. He was bitter that I had called before checking my voicemail and "wasting his time." But, hey it's a f**king POST OFFICE. They all suck. It sucks to go to a U.S. Post Office no matter where it is, it's kind of like going to the DOL... read more

Shame shame USPS. I called you and asked if you had the small PO BOXES available and costs. I asked if I could come and get the small PO BOX and was told yes. I come in and you tell me you've been out for a while and now only have $110/month boxes when I was told you had the $22/month boxes available just a day earlier. Bait and switch... nah more like not organized. Even though you don't have a box you still tell me to take and fill out a long questionnaire which makes no sense. No smile, no we're sorry, just hurry up since I got other customers waiting. Overall, I drove 2 minutes away and got a mailbox in 5 minutes at Mailbox West down the street for a few $$ more but they accept UPS and FEDEX as well as provide excellent customer services and other services the USPS do not offer. Just another reason USPS you're loosing money at an alarming rate and will be obsolete within 10 years. If you're going to drain your headcount maybe keep the workers who are actually good ones, no? read more

I never have a pleasant experience at the post office, but I feel like I can't blame the people working there. It's always crowded because the hours are too narrow for most of us to make it during our lunch or right after work. My experience for this post office is that they usually have 2-3 people manning the stations which means a line out the front door will take 15-20 mins to clear... They need to set up some TVs or serve some drinks or something.... read more

This review is based solely on my latest interaction. As a worrier, I was concerned that the mail-forwarding form I submitted (for a temporary period of time during which our family is traveling) may not have been properly input. The gentleman I spoke with on 8/13/2019 at about 2:10pm was VERY helpful and friendly. He confirmed all my forwarding information (to, from, and duration) over the phone. The call got dropped at my end before I had a chance to say a proper "goodbye," so I figured I would leave a Yelp review. Thanks to the friendly staff at the Westwood Village station for helping to set my mind at ease while we embark on our trip. read more

these people are criminals!! my mail and packages have been stolen many times and they know who they are!! i have submitted numerous complaints to inspector general's office and usps and nothing is ever done. they recently stole a letter and card to my dying father after saying they would "tape it up" and i got it a couple of days later saying that the letter is missing and there were not contents in there. they probably thought they were getting a gift card since they stole one from me before...and have stolen numerous packages. they have laughted at me and made fun of me for my race among other things. they did nothing when a trump supporter was harassing me in the parking lot and lobby. welcome to america, though. when i confronted them to ask them who among them stole the card to my father, they threatened to call the police on me. then they wrote a bogus statement to the post office saying all of this had to do with no intercom on my apartment. that is wrong. it has nothing to do with that. stupid idiots. karma sucks and one day i hope they are get their just due (they know who they are) and the place is shut down. read more

Being that I had some last minute care packages to mail off, and this post office was opened til six, it was my last resort to come to this post office. The parking lot is usually ALWAYS full, so had to park across the "street", and they fortunately had two people working that day, so the line moved pretty quickly. Um, people working here aren't very friendly or caring, more like mechanical robots then anything else. read more

Look......It's the post office, it's not Safeway. These people have a truck load of mail to proses every hour or so... It's busy all the time...there busy all the time....The fact there is anyone out front is a miracle. When a mistake happens (and they do) there are only 4 supervisors to fix it...One of them that fixes problem's instantly is Pax.....That's his name and he is very good at his job...Thanks for all your help Pax....!! Keep up the good work...!!!! read more

I never usually have to go in to mail a package here, I'm usually the person that does a drive by and putting their mail down mail box. For bigger stuff I usually go through Fed-Ex but for some reason I could only mail this USPS, so I put together another package aswell since I had to go mail stuff I might aswell take them both there. I went in the morning because I know how the line gets in this place aswell as parking when it starts to get busy. Luckily for me there was plenty of parking and no wait, I went right up to the man at the counter. I told him I needed to mail both packages out one is paid shipping. He then says "we can't ship this like that" I'm like what? I notice the person that filled out the address put a long statement about the product that is in the box on the front of the box. I was like oh crap why did this person do this now I have to figure out what to do. The worker was nice he said hold on we have a sticker you can fill out the address on and he helped me rip off the old paper and tape it nicely back up. I thought the pricing wasn't to bad for faster shipping too. When I was about done it started to get busy, a customer came in with an open box and just needed it taped before shipping it... They said they couldn't help with that, he got pretty upset and I felt like I got there just in the right time otherwise I might of been dealt the same cards. But really who doesn't tape up a box they are about to ship? read more

Box was sent April 26th still says in transit too next facility may 12 when today is the 15th you guys are the worse shipping option right now read more

It's such a stressful job and I get it. So please be just a little nicer when you visit your local post office and give them a lil break. But please give a smile back some time so your guest know it's not there fault for the jerks you deal with daily. read more

Terrible!!! I wish I lived somewhere else, where I could have a different post office. I waited home all day to receive a signature required package that was supposedly "out for delivery". The mailman came by and dropped off a few letters in our box, then drove off before I could run out to inquire about my package. I drove to the post office to ask them about my package, and all they could tell me is that it is "out for delivery" so I went home and waited until 7:00 pm in vain! This is the second time a package has disappeared. The first one never did get found, so I assume it was stolen by somebody in the post office. The people who work there were not even helpful about trying to find it. This place needs a new manager. They have a receptacle / drop box (one of those rotating steel box things) to drop off packages that has had a broken handle for about two years now!!! What the??? read more

The WORST post office. No outside collection box, AGAIN, and never enough parking. Almost every visit there is a long line and someone complaining about lost mail. Except for one or two clerks they never smile. One you can't understand . Don't ever try to call. No one answers. The ones near the Junction or over near Georgetown are 10x better. Why??? read more

You definitely right about this post office branch this is the 2nd time o gotten my mail lost here 1st is was $1000.00 on money orders going out to pay bills they couldn't So shit sbd didn't seem worried. The 2nd time I ordered something off eBay and its fine I'm tracking all the way from California until it hits the Westwood post office then its no more updates and not delivered from 5/31 till now what the f***k! !! And the workers can tell me nothing HELLO when will they be held accountable read more

Physical location is dreadful; the building is run down and you're lucky if you can get in and out in 20 minutes. Parking is also a feat. Postal carriers constantly walk through the garden dividing my house and neighbor's yard. And, "lost" (read: mis-delivered) packages and letters are not an uncommon occurrence. Might cost you a little more, but you're certainly better off mailing packages through UPS. read more
