- DRDan RoachJul 24, 20252.0I’ve been here maybe a dozen times. Maybe once the guy has been remotely friendly, otherwise he talks to me like I’m a nuisance and total idiot.
- NSNick SJan 24, 20245.0Jim at the West Boxford post office is a tremendous resource and extremely useful in helping in processing both domestic and international mailed parcels. He has even held packages that were incorrectly label. Jim does a great job and represents the USPS to its highest standards!
- TBTodd BullockAug 29, 20231.0Parked next to the reserved parking spot for the postal employee and got a condescending comment from the old man that works in this office, which was his way of asking us to move. Based on other reviews of this post office, it’s less surprising I suppose. Wild that a postal employee would speak to people in this manner.
- JDJames DowneyAug 14, 20201.0I've never been to a post office where the clerk was THAT rude. Never go to this office if you can help it.
- JSJoni SharplesJul 27, 20201.0The service here is lacking. I was barely helped and expected to know everything before coming in. The man behind the counter did not want to help customers at all and left me feeling uncomfortable and like I had been bothering him.
