- CSClaire StottlemyerDec 31, 20251.0You can’t make a passport appointment online (it says service unavailable) and then get turned away when you come in as directed during their walk in hours. I brought my newborn there on a freezing day to get his passport (and I brought the passport photos with me because of others reviews saying they might turn you away if you don’t have those) and still was told no.
- ARAnne RussottoDec 10, 20251.0We expect to wait at the SH PO. On 12/8/25 only one person was helping customers and they allowed a passport appointment to take place during this busy holiday morning. There were ~8 of us in line while he processed 3 passports followed by a lengthy post office box application. The attendant was poised and polite and we do not blame him as he had to do everything including the passport photos. Postmaster Lemonious was not in the office but he should have been there to help when staff is low. P.S. no holiday stamps.
- HMHenrik MolinaDec 5, 20251.0Cute building. Service sucks. Maybe not the fault of the staff?Took kid out of school to have passport renewed. Appointment was canceled 3h ahead of appointment. Reason: Because of staff shortages. Based on Yelp, this seems to be a pattern. Because they cancel the day of appointment you will not be able to find other locations the same day. If choosing Short Hills, maybe make some backup appointments - which of course only will lead to more mess.... Recomendation to USPS Short Hills: cancel earlier so we have a chance to find an alternative.
- RGRachel GowlandSep 6, 20255.0Excellent customer service. Aya & Latoya were so kind to me. They went above and beyond to help me track down by package. So grateful for their help. I was having a really hard day and they turned it around. Give these women a raise!!! They deserve it.
- AKAaron KarlsruherAug 18, 20251.0Ineptitude and incompetence all in one. Rude and resentful.
