The staff at the Hingham post office are very helpful! The mail persons who deliver are NOT ... I have completed changes of address carefully from Mass to Florida, giving the date it should stop and checked with staff at post office that it was completed correctly....but those people who deliver mail... continually ignore the change and send my mail back to post office and sender! It is very disheartening and wonder why this is happening... Patricia Berlan

Amazing customer service! The lady that was working was so sweet and took time to answer my questions and explain to me the process about something in detail. Made me feel very reassured about my mail.
These ladies are patient and kind!
