I sent a brand new iPhone 13 from this station in a package with other things. The package was sent priority mail and was returned to me because it couldn’t be sent by air overseas. When I opened the package everything else was there and the iPhone was stolen. There is nothing that filing a report does with the postal inspectors and you simply just get robbed for trusting in an organization to simply function. Moving forward I don’t have any faith in the US postal service in general less from this particular facility.

Do not go here. If you must go, and you have a cash transaction...count your money CAREFULLY before leaving. Watch your 50 and 100 dollar bills! Some of the employees make "mistakes" when counting.
And they wont rectify it.

Seemingly Random package delivery times and just as random chances for you package to be signed or not. Terrible. Choose UPS or FedEx over this garbage. Maybe worst experiences with any business I’ve ever had.
