- RCRhii CarterMay 5, 20252.0Never update the mail/packages until 1-2 days later
- MBMrs BagentJan 15, 20245.0Port Barre post office provides exceptional customer service! They are always willing to track packages, accommodate customers, and assist with services they provide if the customer doesn’t understand. I’ve witnessed the postmasters assist the elderly and can even send my kids to pick up packages knowing they’ll have the patience with them.
- BMBriar MorrowNov 23, 20191.0I really wish I could give this place less than one star. I'm not one to be easily provoked, or leave a bad review. This place is that bad though. They cannot put packages in a oversized parcel bin, all they ever do is put a slip. The keys havent been taken out of the bins in weeks. At other post offices I've pulled fishing rods out of the bins. You cant get ahold of them, and most of the time their isnt anyone their durning work hours. I've had to fill a complaint online just to have someone help me get a slip for a package at this facility. Worst run post office I've ever had to deal with and I travel for work and forward my mail to different locations.
