It actually relieves me to come here and read that I'm not the only one who has had such terrible experiences with this facility. We lived 20 plus years on a rural route before relocating to Fifty-Six, and never have I ever had such difficulty receiving packages as I have with this location. We aren't ridiculous, and can understand thay larger packages would be an inconvenience.
But Im talking small, letter size boxes that have a designated place to be left. After contacting the post office several time, speaking to the postmaster to arrange a drop off location to make it easier, we received on package, then back to pink slips. We reached out several more times to see what the issue was- and informed by the one cranky lady clerk that "mail is the first priority, and other people have packages too." So anytime I have an Amazon package (which apparently always defaults to USPS over here), it will be delivered to the post office the day it is supposed to, marked as "out for delivery", then an hour or so later, marked "mailbox was full, delivery will be re- attempted." But you cannot simply go in that morning and get it. You have to wait until they are finished "unloading" for that day, although they've clearly already touched it twice. So you might can pick up around noon, but to be sure, you better just plan to get your package the following day. We reached out to the regional director after the most recent interaction with the local level, and she did reach out, but clearly nothing has changed. If the mail carrier doesn't have room, it would seem logical to hire an additional carrier for a route that is 25 minutes or more away from the post office. By far, one of the most disappointing parts of our move has been dealing with this facility and trying to get the things we needed while we build and settle.

After two phone complaints and one in person complaint I am getting packages but the deliverer will still set them on top of the tote I put out there instead of inside, even when it’s raining. I’ve never dealt with lazier usps employees and I’ve lived all over the place. Initially they didn’t deliver the package or leave a slip for pickup. Then they were marking attempted delivery before they even left the post office. My old delivery person would literally walk them to my door. Just incredibly lazy.

Just like most reviews on here they don't deliver packages. Most days they mark as delivery attempted before 9am when they don't get out by my home until 1pm. Sad really people have no initiative. Expect a paycheck but don't want to do the job they were given... lazy..
