- TOT OFeb 9, 20261.0Looks to be permanently closed. Signs on doors saying "Door Broken, Do Not Use".
- KBKevin BillingsMar 27, 20255.0It was ok when I went. Clean, open, and like any other post office. The posted hours weren't updated on google maps but I submitted a review for it to be updated, which would've saved me a trip but I had a package that needed to get sent out in a timely manner and they handled it and got it delivered. I was in/out within 30 seconds.
- ARAlexah RoggeDec 7, 20211.0Do NOT bring your wedding invites here! I put extra postage on my invites to have them hand cancelled (not put through the machine) and the lady assured me they would be. They were all torn from the machine and dirty. This is a pic of one, but other guests never even received them so I’m guessing they were so badly damaged that they weren’t legible. After hand-making all of my invitations and adding the extra postage for safe handling this was such a disappointment. Update: About a dozen of my guests haven't received theirs and several have been returned to my address because the shipping address was completely shredded by the machine.
- JSJennifer SundookSep 8, 20211.0They are closed at 2:35 on a Wednesday. No reason given. Their lunch is supposed to end at 2:30. This is not the first time they have been closed when their hours indicate they should be open. I waited 10 minutes and then a pedestrian told me he waited 30 minutes yesterday and no one ever came. Left without sending package.
