- KRkaya rossDec 21, 20251.0Marked my package as “ Moved, Left no Address,” maybe because they didn’t feel like looking for the mailbox or even leaving it at the door. It’s ridiculous that I could have things delivered from different carriers and others seem to leave them no problem. No one answers when you call. It’s just a mess.
- KCKayla CollinsDec 19, 20255.0I have shipped packages all over the country and i have NEVER experienced such good customer service and knowledge of what they are doing. I’ve been an etsy seller for yearssss and never has it been this easy on the shipping end
- TBTreasure BrownDec 10, 20255.0Every time I go to this post office the mail lady Ms. Kody always puts a smile on my face even when the line is lengthy she's always doing her best to move quickly and efficiently. I am sad this location is out of holiday stamps though.
- TDtori dozierDec 10, 20252.0The workers at the desk were very helpful specifically miss Kody, miss katherine, and miss Keke! They all helped me through this months long process of receiving my mailbox keys. I waited since may and finally received my keys in December thanks to their help. The wait time was way too long and I was accused of not returning the keys I was given even though I’ve never had access to my mailbox and never received keys that worked. I hope no one else has to go through the same process and wish those ladies a merry Christmas!
- SBShalina BrewerDec 5, 20255.0Called the Post Office on 4535 Bennington Ave, Baton Rouge, LA 70808. Spoke with Ms. Linda about our boss possibly leaving his keys at the location. The staff jumped right on it and was able to locate his keys and labeled them for him. When he went to pick them up, the staff was amazing Kody did an exceptional job with having them labeled and ready for pick up. I just wanted to give all the staff a huge shout out about the great service and prompt help in helping our boss find his keys, especially during the season where its super busy for them, its nice to see cheerful faces an personable staff go the extra mile. Thank you from DPI Anesthesia Staff!
