This location might as well be labeled as package purgatory. I DREAD seeing stuff I order show Bedford Park as the hub it's passing through, because it'll never without fail get lost, or arrived several weeks later...in my case it took 4 months for them to find it. What an absolute joke.

This is absolutely THEE most incompetent post office IN THE COUNTRY- it is ridiculous. The amount of packages that get mis-shipped, lost, damaged or delayed is ridiculous. Like everyone that works there is remedial or something…and there’s no one you can talk to… where is the postmaster?? because something needs to be done STAT because he/she HAS to see the sheer number of complaints and bad reviews coming in about this location. Put Bedford Park post office out of its misery or revamp and get it to where it should be professionally because at this point they are just an absolute disgrace. I live 20 minutes from BP, package came from Pennsylvania, went to Indianapolis then to BP… why is it now in MEMPHIS???? HOW?? WHY?? I can’t even leave the language in this review that I’m actually using because it will get flagged but you get my point! I am so irritated.

I sell on eBay and my package is stuck at this location and my buyer is now opening a "Did not receive" case. This is costing eBay sellers money and eBay needs to step in to resolve this. Many reviews here are reporting the same thing. We are losing money because of incompetence.
