- SPSavanna PettengillOct 30, 20255.0All the staff here is kind and work as fast as possible to move the line along quickly. They do this while also treating each person with high quality and patient service. Doing both at the same time at likely the busiest post office is the state is something I have immense respect for.

- SPSusan PoulinOct 16, 20251.0I was needing help with passport today. Customer rep (black female) was extremely rude, impatient and had a discusting attitude! I left w/out any resolve and contacted National Passport Serv. They were extremely helpful, kind and patient! Be ware future passport customers!! I'll NEVER go to USPS for passport I dont even want to give this a "one star" its that BAD
- WSWilliam StratisOct 16, 20251.0Deering St Portland. Parking in a handicapped spot for 20 min and laughing it off when mentioned. You should be ashamed of this delivery driver.
- DJDeborah JohnsonOct 4, 20254.0I have never had a bad experience here. Postal workers are friendly, calm and knowledgeable. The self service machine is easy to use when I need it. Depending on the time of day, the lines/wait time can be long (thus 4 stars rather than 5), but it is because workers are helping people and answering questions. Wish there could be more people working behind the counter to solve that problem. Mailing packages at PO is always cheaper than at the delivery companies and they’ve never lost a package. Have always had great home delivery people too, no complaints there at all!
