idk why this location has such low ratings, I've used this post office my whole life- the staff is always very friendly and very helpful. yes, sometimes the line gets backed up but the workers are always going as quick as they can.

They make me hold my baby and a package for an hour, making me going twice at the end of a line. Something is morally wrong with this people.

Special thanks and a shout out to Lucas! (apologies if spelled differently) Was super worried about a very important package not showing up (despite the tracker saying it was delivered) After starting the ticket I was able to get in touch with him over the phone. He was super friendly, open to help and thorough. Literally no notes. Say what you want about USPS as a whole, but there are some very dedicated people! Thank you again!

I’ve had issues with this post office for nearly two years and try to avoid coming here as much as I can. The lines are always unusually long. The customer service is downright awful, and they seem to have an obvious issue regarding protocols managing their lines!!!! I find the manager to be extremely rude and condescending. I’ve left several messages for Mark, the post master to contact me to no avail. This facility is ghetto! The workers are also extremely lazy. I’m going to continue to call and complain on these incompetent individuals!!!!
