- JFJenise FoxSep 8, 20252.0The Hispanic man is terrible! Poor customer service skills, uses his phone in front of customers, points at people instead of speaking to them. I hate going there when he's working. If I see him, I turn around and leave because I don't need him ruining my day by treating me poorly. I used to enjoy going to the post office, but now I go to other towns instead.
- LMlorena martinezSep 1, 20255.0Excelente 👍🏻☺️!!
- RWR WAug 26, 20255.0Absolutely love the lady that always helps me whenever I come in. She is always so patient and helps whenever she can. As someone who doesn't ship or use the post office often, she makes the experience so pleasant. She helped me figure out what box I should ship in and pricing for my box. I was going to use a priority box but she gave me a box that was closer to my item size. Then help me fill out the addresses. No rude or condescending remarks like other post offices. The best post office I've been to.
- KOK OJul 22, 20255.0Shoutout to the ladies who work there! I didn’t catch their name but they helped me with the passport process and they were very patient with me as I had no idea what I was doing. I went to south bound brook, Somerville, bridgewater, they were all extremely rude. Raritan was great 👍🏻👍🏻
