- CAChris Ashlee4 days ago1.0Pick a different post office. Unless you like standing around for 30mins plus, then go for it.
- ALAtlanta LeatherDec 24, 20251.0They dont scan the packages, lose them, and claim there is no liability. Do yourself a favor, pay the extra dollar and ship UPS.
- AHAdonis HarwellDec 20, 20251.0Someone at the location is stealing mail I had a debit card and a check that never got delivered even though the informed delivery app said it was coming that day and the bank app said it was delivered. I hope whoever is stealing gets caught and thrown in jail
- DMDavid MooreDec 17, 20255.0Love this office specifically. Everyone here has been so reasonable and patient whenever I need anything and if they can't help me right at the moment, they let me know when someone who can help will be back or they will get a restock. Don't believe the negative reviews. If you come in and act right they're gonna treat you right.
- LHLilly HDec 15, 20251.0The Post office staff at this location is absolutely rude and nasty towards the customers. They have no respect for the customers and working at this post office in this community. Everyone need to be fired at this location. They need a complete overhaul including management
