    Their customer service is great. They are always friendly and helpful. They are usually busy but they take the time with each customer so please be patient while waiting in line.

    I’m very impressed by the staff at this USPS store. People were still lining up at 5pm and they were still helping customers after close. Other USPS stores would have locked the doors or maybe even told everyone they were closed come back tomorrow, but the man and woman working this afternoon made me feel like they actually cared. I wish all USPS stores were like this one.
