The postman accidentally grabbed our garden tool when delivering our package. I went to the post office even though they were closed for the Saturday afternoon but the post master still came back later in the day to drop it off.

Tuesday June 24th in the sweltering lobby on the hottest day 101°...my pkg could not be mailed...I did not understand why...my basic reason for this review is WHY did this clerk not have a fan under this excruciating heat...she stood there and never complained...disgusting conditions to work in...

Canton MA - They deliver an overnight package to the wrong address, don’t care they delivered to the wrong place and do not provide any help with fixing their mistake. What a waste of a post office. You try to cal them and they ignore the phone

Irresponsible. I feel like comparing the workers at this post office to the Sloths in Zootopia. How incompetent the USPS in Canton have become. We live in 2024 yet the USPS in Canton operate like its the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. Few days ago I wanted to mail a package. I have to ring the bell (are we in the same decade?) and wait 4 minutes for any employees to barge their way to the front desk. When someone finally came she told me the printers are down and I can’t send the package from this location. Unbelievable!

They keep losing my mail, unapologetically and unsurprisingly, given the disgraceful state of their front desk, which looks like a tornado stormed through it. The only reason it gets one star is because I could not leave a review otherwise. An absolute disappointment.
