Not surprised to see the abundance of 1 star reviews! Not sure what stage of life a person must be in to whole heartedly dedicate themselves to a petty dispute over doing their job but it seems to have afflicted the entire staff at this post office, including the post master! Got a notice from them refusing to deliver mail for a completely invalid reason, went to pick up my mail and was greeted by an empty register with a bell. Rang the bell. Angry worker arrived. Told her I was there to retrieve my mail. She went to the back to grab my mail and came back sweating profusely. In my mail was a letter stating they will be returning my mail to sender. Don't be surprised if you to have your mail being held hostage with a list of half baked demands.

Would make this zero stars if I could. Have lived in the same place for two years with the same mailbox. But they suddenly refuse to deliver mail because the mail box “isn’t secure”. The mail box has been the same since I’ve lived here and it is perfectly secure and can close and latch fine. 😑 When I go to pick up my mail now at the Post office, I am always polite and smiling, and they are always extremely rude and snippy in return.
