Probably the best post office that I’ve ever used. Clerks are pleasant and informative. Busiest one for sure, older slower clientele so lines can be long but they are efficient

I simply DO NOT understand why people consistently give USPS on Perrineville negative reviews. Here are the reasons I have given them a 4-star review and why I took off a star ;-). (1) They ARE helpful! They will assist in certified mail and provide guidance on registered vs certified and cost of sending anything. (2) When lines are long, they do their best to bring in staff from the back to assist in addressing customer needs (3) They are very polite and super-efficient once you are at the counter because they want YOU out of there as quickly as you want to be out of there to get on with your day (4) I took a star off because they don't offer you "free" tape to bind your boxes or packages. I mean, c'mon, I KNOW you have tape back there, USPS! But I always end up having to purchase tape because I forget to bring my own. Anyway, I am happy to have USPS in my hood and love that they are open till 7 Oh, Number (4) they are open till 7!! very convenient.

Mailman pulled up to mail box and did not get out to put mail in mailbox. Even though the law says he's required too. The box was blocked by the neighbors car. He made no effort. After reading other reviews here, I don't think the post office cares.
