Best post office I’ve ever been to! Went on a Saturday at 11am and no line. Stamped and shipped 60 envelopes in less than 5 minutes.

9-13-22 before 12:00 noon, The Postal Website had posted a phone # for Lowell, NC Post Office. When dialing the number listed, the recording said: the number you have dialed is disconnected, changed, or no longer available. I then called the 800 number, which is a robot answering machine. Your answering (robot) machine kept repeating the same options information over and over. I didn't want to order supplies, track a package, nor any of the options given. I repeated the word "agent", however your robot answering machine had 50 different options for me to select. Agent, (or) speak to a person, (or representative, was not one of your OPTIONS. I was on the phone for over 15 minutes. "I needed to speak to someone" at the Lowell Postal Office to inquire if I had (in error) left my keys (house keys, PO Box key, and more) on the table outside my postal box. This is a great example of how my taxpayer dollars supporting the Postal Service is working.
Please update the 'correct' phone number on your website for Lowell, NC Post office. The postmaster at Lowell is great, I would bet he doesn't know that your "technical support dept", provides no support at all. Change your "......." recording and add AGENT for a prompt and "actually connect to an "agent" instead of repeating the same "Options" 50 times. I finally hung up. There was no help from your automated system. C.H. Abernathy

i simply adore this postal outlet. the people are helpful and friendly and there is rarely a wait that lasts more than five minutes. it truly is worth the drive for those who would rather NOT wait at the South New Hope Road Annex or the Main Post Office downtown.
