- KMK MooreNov 5, 20251.0Tellers are all rude
- LSLindsey SheppardOct 18, 20255.0I've been dealing with my condo's mailbox being broken and having to pick up my mail for 6 months. Everyone here is always polite and helpful.
- D8drhitman 83Oct 16, 20251.0Sooo I've been at my address for just over a yr now and have renewed my lease for a 2nd yr. All of a sudden this post office has deemed that I no longer live at my own apartment and now not getting mail. You guys suck.
- CHCrystal HooperSep 11, 20251.0This is the worst post office I have ever used. I've had packages go missing multiple times, and only one was found. Most recently they placed my PO Box payment in my box instead of processing the payment. Luckily I was able to pay it online so there was not a disruption in my service. If you have the option, use a different post office.
