- BBBarbaraOct 12, 20251.0Only; be staff person at the counter early afternoon . I had to leave because it was taking too long. Seems like if you can't arrive the moment they open you will be waiting for a ridiculous amount of time
- EEElizabethSep 19, 20252.0Always very slow and understaffed. Be prepared to wait in line for over 30 minutes. I’d rather have that lady being socially inappropriate than have to wait in line for forever with only one person working registers.
- JWJane WeberDec 27, 20245.0Could not have been treated better! Long line (nice father and his 5 1/2yr old son) chatted with me...i kind of forgot how long I was waiting! Finally my turn and Shawn was CHEERFUL and HELPFUL...all I did was mail an envelope to St. PAUL... I will use this post office for the rest of my life!!
