Have repeatedly not had my mail delivered into my mailbox tried calling at 4:30 only to be told that they closed and that they are open until 6:00 for full service. I decided to drive up to the post office and it is currently 5:02 and I'm sitting in the parking lot and there is nobody inside and everything is closed down even though they're supposed to be full service till 6:00 it's even posted on the door to the building.

Okay, read many reviews how disgruntled people are at the delivery service here in Chesterton. Well, my postal carrier took one of my packages that was not intended to be mailed, but had just been delivered by UPS and put in my mailbox. I hadn't made it out to my mailbox to pick up my mail and package. When I went out my package was gone! What?! Yep, and I called the post office to let them know my package was taken. Haven't heard back from them yet on what happened to my package. Warning to you all who order over the internet. Don't order stuff that will be put in your mailbox because it will be taken by the postal carrier!

Kinda funny that the driver left a note and said no one was home to sign for something but I was home and no one knocked on the door

Fantastic employees! Specifically the person I believe to be the manager. Raving about this employee seems to be an under sell!!!+ a blown away by his/ her / their wisdom and service.
