- SSShell ShockerSep 18, 20251.0Absolutely terrible service. My scheduled pickup was ignored, no one answers the phones, and my packages were left sitting. This location needs new management ASAP!!!!!!!! 🗑️
- JJJkeelisDec 8, 20171.0Worst service on the planet and zero accountability. Packages are constantly delayed, misplaced, or not delivered at all. If the phone isn’t off the hook- it just rings and rings when you try to call for assistance. If someone does answer they are rude and careless. Baton Rouge has the worst USPS in the United States.
