General mail delivery service states on USPS website will hold for 30 days. Mailed an item with this service for my through hike. Arrived at post office 20 days after mailing (before mail transit time). They returned packed to sender already. Counter attendant very rude when I inquired about package.

I was distraught, as the mail forwarding I thought I had arranged for in my home town seemed to have simply failed, and I was scheduled to be in the area for an entire month. The gentleman at the counter here patiently listened to my anxious story, and had an immediate solution. Very professional, as well as patient.
