- ARAlyssa RobinsonAug 27, 20215.0i don't think I've ever had a more friendly experience over the phone than i did here today. I live in Tennessee and shipped a package to my grandma here which didn't make it on time. With less than 5 minutes on the phone everything was figured out and she should be getting her gift today <3
- JMJamie MarshallFeb 4, 20205.0The Merrimac USPS has the most outstanding customer service. I worked with a gentlemen named Frank and Frank helped me out with an urgent issue that I had and he took great care of me. He went above and beyond to help a customer out in need. I would recommend this location to anyone. Great Great Service!!!
