- TTTKNov 3, 20255.0The staff here are friendly and really do their best
- B4Broski 4481Oct 10, 20251.0Worst people ever. Deliver my package to wrong address the help line is all automated. Annoying and frustrating Shame on usps. Very un helpful.
- MSMarielle ShawAug 25, 20252.0When I'm in the building, everyone is super nice and helpful. In the past couple years though, the carriers have been an issue, whether it's not leaving things, damaging things, leaving post office boxes open, any number of things. I feel like I'm constantly showing up at the post office or trying to call to resolve some issue, and since we have a small business we ship through USPS often with, as we get busier, things get worse. I wish they'd answer the phone, and I wish carriers could be more thoughtful and respectful.
- TTTaniaAug 20, 20251.0Horrible wait… I agree it’s a hassle going there after paying for my own services. The problem maybe that old lady is probably too exhausted by working there. It’s probably time to get new workers.
- CBCaitlyn BekkeringJul 10, 20251.0Wish someone at this post office WOULD PICK UP THE PHONE! It’s ridiculous the amount of hoops USPS expects you to jump through when THEY make a mistake. Please tell your mail carriers to double check the delivery addresses and leave the CORRECT keys to the parcel lockers when applicable.
