I've never had problems from this post office and the staff are very professional and reliable and friendly. I have had problems with most of the other post offices in Albany.

I was told my package was available for pick up at S Slappey Blvd , went there and was told it was placed in the wrong bin and they will re deliver the next day . Well the next day , they told me to get the package from that same establishment on S Slappey . I would rather not do business with these people. They are out of order and apparently they can not do their job if they are placing things in the wrong bin. I still don’t have my packages by the way.
