One of the worst post office I have had. There are days during the week NOT even a holiday and they don't deliver your mail. Or like right now UPS said my package was delivered to my house. Well I have been home all day amd no package. I go to post office to ask, Hello, I need to see if a package is here from UPS as they stated they delivered to my house. She just shook her head no half way through my question and then after says we just got our UPS stuff and I am not going through it right now. We'll then how the heck am I suppose to know if my package is there or if it got stolen because UPS said they delivered to my door. This new lady is really rude and seems to not want to help you or like it's a burden to her for her to help you. Wish the 3 lady's that where there before where still there. Never had a problem with them. Thanks

No mail delivery and limited hrs to retrieve mail from p.o.boxes ! It is very difficult to get your mail in this town and for packages you better hope your job lets you leave early before they close at 4:15 or you may be waiting an awful long time before your able to pick them up! This is defiantly an eye opening experience and explanation as to why people rely on fed ex and ups!
