- NANancy AndersonOct 4, 20255.0I love this post office! Always helpful, always friendly and never a line!
- NKNoman KhanDec 12, 20235.0Amber and Stewart are very helpful and always make the visit pleasant.
- MMMaria MiramontesAug 16, 20181.0I went to the Elverta Ca post office. My check had not come. We get 2 but only 1 was delivered. The mailman told me to talk to them at Elverta. The postmaster was so rude. And not wanting to help. I went there for help. I had checked with sender it was sent along with other check that i did receive. Im going there for help. Not attitude. I asked if I could call at end of day, just in case. She said that never happens. No suggestions to what I could do. All that was missing was her broomstick.
- SSStephanieDec 9, 20171.0I personally have been here once, the lady that helped me wasn't friendly at all, and didn't say a word to me, just took my package and scanned it. My husband has dropped off packages for me here, and the last time they scanned it in as delivered so the tracking didn't work until it was actually delievered. Will go to a different location from now on.
