- HHHTSep 22, 20255.0When you live in a more rural area, you can expect things to be a little different or "inconvenient". Regardless of that aspect that others may complain about, the young man that works there is super nice and helpful. I live somewhere that has my house different on Google that my actual government location. So half the time ordering online some will actually deliver to me and some will go through the post office. I cannot see sometimes how an online company ships. Instead of returning my package due to it not saying south Gardiner, he actually dose his darndest to look up the name on it and put it in the proper PO box. I think that extra time he makes is amazing. Please don't be rude to people in this post office, they genuinely do their best.
- JHJohn HaugheyAug 13, 20231.0Pretty much a given if a package is a pain deliver they don't bother. (Too large/heavy). They can't live up to their Amazon obligations, for Xmas they were 2 weeks behind deliveries. Customer service is non-existent, entitled attitude, very rude and simply unwilling to help. I don't expect this to help. Just echoing what others are saying. Very frustrating mail situation here in Gardiner.
- AHAndrew HopkinsJul 6, 20221.0I wish they would shut down this post office and deliver in the area. Packages frequently sent back because no one is there to receive them. It has hours that are not convenient for anyone who works and often times its not open when it's scheduled to be. If I send packages to my parents just on the other side of town they typically show up a few days earlier. I have owned several PO boxes around the country. One of them was at a post office three hundred miles from the closest road in Alaska and all mail came on a small cessna yet it provided better service. The people who work there do their best with what they have to work there but it would be so much better to have mail delivered to my house which is done all over rural Maine.
