Not as many people as cars in parking lot. They had extra people working the counter this year. Line moved pretty fast too. Not nearly as bad as it usually is this time of year.
I was pleasantly surprised!🤗

Very positive experience. I rarely use the post office but needed to send something out today. There was quite a few people in line however, the staff were extremely efficient in serving everybody. Cisco was the postal agent I dealt with. Cisco was very polite, professional, and efficient. Within three minutes, Cisco provided me everything I needed. You can definitely tell Cisco takes pride in his job. From the time I walked into the post office, to the time I left, was maybe 10 minutes. This was an excellent experience, and I cannot thank the staff enough.

Everything is fine.. until my packages get to the Okeechobee USPS. Lost. Takes days to be delivered (I live a mile behind the post office). Packages are heavily damaged and contents spilling out.. literally see them throwing my packages towards my front door.. FedEx and UPS walk up and set it down. My wife's votor registration card went missing, until (conveniently) the day after the election.. corner was peeled up to show party affiliation. Shady. Unprofessional. Trash.
