Came here they do not do overnight shipping anymore and I was told the one across town which is a 20 minute drive did. They do not. So I'm glad I got to waste my time spending 20 minutes driving to and then 20 minutes back across town

This post office use to be incredible, since one of the clerks here retired it has gone down hill. They are not scanning packages the day of receiving them, I run a ebay store and they are causing me to have a late shipment. I will be calling consumer affairs today to fix this. I drop my packages off around 230 to 3 and on the door it states last package pickup is 5 pm. Plenty of time to scan packages in.

This location is by far my favorite! Teresa was always so helpful and had some great jokes! She will be missed! Everyone is always so helpful at this location. So much so that I go across town and only use this store because of that. Always easy service and in and out fast.

Teresa is the by far the best employee I have seen at this location in years. She can do the work for 10 people by herself. She will be sadly missed. I wish Teresa lots of luck and good health while enjoying retiring. Always good experiences here. If you have an issue and patiently wait your turn and ask for help , the staff is always willing to go above and beyond to help. I would not have stayed at this location for my box service since location opened, if I wasn’t happy.
Thank you James river post office! Much Appreciated!
