- NCNeale ChaudhuryFeb 18, 20245.0Have had excellent experience - staff were extremely professional, courteous and very helpful. One obeservation - maybe please hire more people because the line gets really long and if all counters are manned maybe faster service.. apart from that excellent experience. Thank you.
- JHJonathan HorrellJun 21, 20194.0These guys are troopers. Best service I've had at any post office, but looks like they're constantly understaffed and overwhelmed by the sheer number of customers. The office itself doesn't seem adequate to handle the volume of business it gets. If anyone in a position of power reads this; please, please, please get these guys some help, (and give them a raise,) and expand the facility.
