This post office has some of the rudest and least helpful employees at the service desk, regularly “loses” outgoing packages (theft), and has had constant issues with missing & stolen mail for years. They’ve been audited by USPS numerous times. Absolutely horrendous excuse for a USPS location.

The mail carrier that services my Mobile Home Park in Hawaiian Gardens does not deliver our mail. I receive notifications of mail that I should receive, but I may not get it until 2 or 3 days later. At one time it was more than a full week later! This is not just a one time thing. There have also been times when I have put something out for the mail carrier to pick up, he/she just drives by without picking it up. In the 2 years I have lived in the mobile home park, this has happened at least 9 times if not more! Sadly, I am not the only one that this has happened to in my mobile home park. Also, there have been times when mail is delivered around or after 8:00 PM, which seems rather odd. I believe the mail carrier for our mobile home park needs to be more attentive to the needs of the seniors living in the park. Very disheartening.

I spent over an hour on hold, and when I finally connected with the defense team, they hung up on me. The customer service was unhelpful, and the representative was not able to assist.

At times, this can be a,sloopy experience. If you rent a P O box
And order from Amazon using their Prime delivery service? You're in trouble. On occasion I'd
Have packages delivered to a nearby address because one of the clerks told me that Amazon packages are held until the next day if their are too many to distribute to P O Box holders.
Meanwhile, you may see a guy who works in the back. Come up to window services area eating his snacks and chatting with the clerks.
