- SKSean KennedySep 4, 20251.0Let me preface by saying I'm not really one to leave a review for anything, but I've had nothing but terrible experiences with the downtown post office. For the last few years they have gotten absolutely nothing right when I've used them. From outright ignoring holds on mail and returning all parcels to senders on multiple occasions, to leaving snarky unprofessional, and completely incorrect notes in our mailbox, and lazy, work-avoidant behavior for tasks as simple as printing a label in person. Do yourself a favor and go to any other USPS location in Juneau. I've been tempted to open a PO Box at the wonderful Douglas location just to avoid dealing with the absolutely miserable and incompetent carriers and customer facing employees downtown.
- LSLori SpeedJul 28, 20251.0This has got to be the worst post office I have ever been to. I travel for work, so the post office is very important for me. I had a package sent and being proactive, went early to ensure there were no issues. The person on Saturday doing packages was nice, had me fill out paperwork and said she would hold it. I go back on Monday after work and the older man at the counter was extremely short and rude. He did not want to look up the package number- I had to insist. He went back and said it wasn't there and then every question I asked was met with a snide and short remark. I dont understand why people get customer facing jobs when their attitudes are terrible. It was 15 minutes to closing and he was watching the clock- he didn't even try to hide it. Terrible!
- FGFried GizzardAug 30, 20222.0Well I have finally switched back to the valley. The final straw was it took 10 days for one item to get from the valley office to the downtown office. I was told it was because it was shipped ground. Seems a little excessive to me.
- ADAdam DiPietroOct 29, 20191.0Never have I been so underwhelmed. Ever wonder why other private companies are doing well when they charge 2-3 times as much? Visit here and it will all make sense. It’s like herding cats that are high on catnip. If using this place, make sure nothing can go bad in 3-4 weeks and can withstand small arms fire and a backhoe running it over. 3 day shipping is a joke.
