- CWCharles Walters6 days ago1.0Worst Post Office ever, terrible customer service, the system is always down, the workers sit in the back and talk loud while customers stand in line for over 5-10 min (even when the bell is rung or when customers knock on the cashier window) etc. We deserve better service in our neighborhoods!
- AEAngelica EmeryNov 11, 20251.0This place needs to be shut down very unprofessional and never have answers to anything it’s been like this for YEARS
- KMKatrina MallettOct 9, 20251.0By far the worst post office I have ever been to.
- AHAshley HendersonAug 25, 20251.0I haven’t received mail in 2 weeks.. their computers is always down. This the only post that does not have a regular number. They have the usps customer service number. I hate this area
- KRkelly ramirezAug 12, 20251.0If I could put a no star I would. They need to close this location or hire new staff, the female in the front does not DO her job & does NOT even try to help. Just rude and dismissive. I agree with the rest of the reviews.
