- BBBecky BoudreauxOct 21, 20255.0Omg we love our mail lady and her socks always makes a smile on our face. We love seeing her different socks each day and as a businesswoman it definitely takes away from the boring days we have and they bring a light to our office everyday. I believe her name is Shena
- ASAndrew SebaOct 10, 20255.0Every time I come here the staff is beyond friendly. I dropped off 300 envelopes to mail this morning and Ms. Cody couldn't have been nicer. Their decorations for breast cancer awareness are so fun, too!
- DSDev ShoresAug 30, 20251.0My package was already late and they 1.) wouldn’t allow us to just come pick it up, (we live about 45 minutes away.) 2.) Sent it to a whole other state, where it looks like it will be sitting over the 3 day weekend since that location is closed. It was a snack box that the company had to refund because its freaking perishable items. When someone pays extra for priority mail they expect it to be a priority and come within a certain timeframe. USPS should be charged when companies have to refund customers because USPS can’t deliver within a timeframe they quote. Not to mention there’s nothing USPS will do to rectify the situation with me or the company who had to issue me a refund on a product USPS let go bad.
- SRSana RiazJun 8, 20251.0They always either deliver my mail to wrong mailbox or don’t deliver at all i have to go to office to pick when you go to office got the worst people working their who hate their lives and job
- DLDestiny LongJun 7, 20251.0i’ve received zero help with my package that was supposed to be delivered then scanned in for pickup. no answer can be given over the phone when i appear in person because online says they’re open they’re closed and now i cant even get someone on the phone to find out where my package is in the void to get it.
