The staff here are great. Any time I have had a question, they have been so helpful. Recently, Valter and the other person I talked with really went out of their way to solve a problem with a change of address. This has consistently been my experience during almost two decades of living and working in Salem. Thank you!

The people who work here are (in my experience) range from "total normal good service" to "exceptionally friendly and helpful." I spoke to someone there today and she was so personable and accommodating, it made me feel like we were friends.
