This is the worst UPS store I've ever been to. A few months ago, I went to return an item, and they insisted I buy their box before I could return it, because it was a relatively large item, and the box costs around $15. I went to another UPS store, and they didn't have this requirement! Today, I went to send a machine for repair, and because I already had a prepaid receipt, they demanded I buy $7.99 worth of tape to cover it before they would ship it, and kept reminding me they were closing soon. Since the machine is heavy, I kept trying to negotiate a solution. Finally, I was very confused, so I went home, got the tape, and went to another UPS store. The previous UPS store was very helpful, and they didn't need the tape at all! Although this store is very close to my home, I will never go there again!

Disappointing Experience at this UPS Store
I’ve never written a review but this one was necessary.
I try to avoid this location, but since I live nearby I sometimes have to use it. The service is rigid and unfriendly, with little willingness to accommodate. I dropped off a small package that was ready to go and only needed a tiny amount of tape, yet I was charged $2 at the front desk. It’s not about the money—it’s the principle of good customer service. When I shared my opinion, the lady didn’t seem to care, even after noting that other stores don’t act this way. There’s no sense of relationship or care—just a transactional interaction with rude behavior.
By the way, this was not the first time. One time, the lady made me buy a whole roll of tape for literally 4” of tape. Another time, they tried to charge me an exorbitant amount of money to pack and ship in addition while it was supposed to be free.
I’m DONE with this location. Please don’t bother writing a “we are sorry message”. You weren’t sorry when I shared my negative experience directly with you in the store.
Hope you make some changes for your own good! Just look how low your ratings are. There are plenty of super friendly UPS stores nearby. Best of luck.
I’d give minus 100 stars if that was available.

I will never go back to this UPS RUDE! There are plenty of other UPS stores. They act like they are you a favor helping you.

So rude. Be better. A man and a woman were chatting in their own language while I stood directly in front of them, waiting to be acknowledged. They never greeted me. When the woman was FINALLY ready, she simply nodded her chin in my direction without saying a word!?! It was extremely rude and beyond unprofessional. Easily the worst UPS location I’ve ever been to. Will avoid from now on.
