This has to be one of the worst post offices ever. It has damaged my packages many times and often delivers very slowly.

This review is for the Norway Post Office in-house staff only, as we can't speak to delivery on the street. We either go to the PO Box or the front desk inside, so this addresses the staff inside the Norway Post Office on Main Street, Norway, ME. The federal post office system can be a tough, thankless job, but the local Norway mail clerks and front desk staff have been great. Very efficient, attentive and friendly. If you have an issue, they help you fix it. Even the Norway Postmaster took the time to patiently look into an issue and help solve a problem. Kudos to the staff inside the Norway Post Office! Thank you for your hard work! On another note, the cost of the PO Boxes is way too high, way higher than PO Boxes at other Post Offices. They said there is a reason, but after hearing about it, it does not justify the high cost of those boxes. Outside the Norway site, someone needs to fix the front steps at this Post Office, chunks of concrete falling out of them, holes and uneven pavement - truly an accident waiting to happen! (And the handicapped ramp, is around the side/back somewhere) Yikes!

Absolutely terrible. Our mailman held our packages and mail, because he didn't like the location of our mailbox. He also refuses to deliver after it snows even when the pathway to out mailbox is cleared. Just a real nasty person. The people at the post office are no help as well. They stick up for their own and refuse to admit bad behavior. I'd give these people a ZERO if I could. Rude, unprofessional, and downright terrible at their jobs.

I just moved to S. Paris on Feb. 8th. I chgd. my add. in Oxford where I used to live to a p.o. box in S. Paris. I understand Norway delivers mail to S. Paris. I am not getting pkgs. delivered when I order something from Amazon. They don't even try from what I see on tracking numbers. The last one says it was out for delivery last Fri. 3-22-24 at 8:30 a.m. and at same exact time shows it was not delivered and could be picked up in S. Paris. I checked there yesterday and just as before they told me it was in Norway. I am going there later on today in hopes they have it. My question is, even tho I don't have a mailbox yet which I intend to take care of very soon, when I leave specific mailing instructions to leave on my porch at my home they don't do it. Is it because I don't have a mailbox mailing add. at my home? If so, does everyone whether they have a mailbox or not have to go track down what happened to their pkgs. if it is too big to go in the mailbox. In Oxford, if it was too big for the mailbox they drove in your driveway and left it on your porch or deck. Not trying to be difficult, I just want to know what I need to do.
