- DKdimes knickelsOct 25, 20251.0I tried this office for the first time because I was in the neighborhood. But to my dismay, it left me immensely devastated. This experience here could have possibly derailed my career. I wish I would have read past reviews about this uptown location. Specifically Alejandro’s review, the second paragraph. Had I known delivery delays are problematic here, I would’ve avoided this office. I had a document I mailed as overnight priority and paid the extra expense. Before mailing the document, I asked the Gen Z man what would he recommend; he reassured me it would be there on time. Surprise, days later it has yet to arrive at its destination. Although I understand the transit process has a lot of moving parts and not one individual has the sole responsibility from point a to point b, this has never happened at the Whittwood facility. The staff at the Whittwood facility is very informed, and prompt. I encourage you to avoid using usps on Washington if you have a time sensitive delivery. To save you time…Customer service is a bot, good luck trying to reach a Person. It says that their staff does not know any more information than the same tracking information provided on the website or app. If you need something on time don’t go here.

- CMCheryl McCaughanSep 23, 20251.0It’s a shame that the outside of this post office is neglected. Flower beds are overgrown and most everything is dead. The building dates back to 1935 and is in the historic part of the city. It should not be an eyesore.
- MRMarvin RoseJul 11, 20255.0Nice, friendly, neighborhood post office!
- SVShadie ValenzuelaJun 7, 20251.0I’ve been dropping my packages off here and it takes a WEEK FOR THEM TO SCAN THEM INTO THE SYSTEM!!! I’ll be complaining on Monday. My business is declining because of this locations laziness.
