I had the same experience as Crystal Wooley. I needed only 6" of tape so the UPS Pakage would not rip open and the Clerk had 3 tape hand guns right behind her. She started raising her voice at me like I had stolen something or asked to borrow some money. I'm glad I had some tape in my car. I went back in and the other clerk was so pleasant and she even asked if I could wheel the hand truck with the heavy box to the back of the store and I wheeled it in the back of the store for her. If I'm able to help why I could not get a strip of tape. I know times are hard but damn. All set going to 1345 Barnum Ave location. It was so embarrassing to have someone raised their voice for a piece of tape?

This is the most difficult unpleasant UPS drop off without them charging for what is suppose to be a free drop off. Whether it’s a complaint about how it’s packaged(which is the original packaging) or a piece of tape for a package you received in it’s original form I.e. you didn’t even open the package they are telling you have to buy a whole tape or if they tape it for you they are going charge you!! They are even charging to attached the return label you provide. When I go to other ups stores they are warm and welcoming no aggravation to drop a package off ups slips available free of cost to place your return labels. Safe to say I will not be visiting that ups store on Barnum Ave in Stratford!!!
