- PSPhil SewallOct 7, 20251.0Continuously delivering our packages to another home with the same house number. And vice versa. We don’t live in Westwood but oftentimes packages will be routed through their office and not ours. Despite numerous attempts over the last 3 years to correct the issue, their delivery people still are too lazy to actually look at the street name on the parcel. Or they don’t care because it’s not their town. We, along with the other home sharing our same house number (on a completely different road!) have missed out on birthday and Christmas gifts, tax documents, checks, and more. We’re constantly running packages and letters to each other’s houses. It’s maddening.
- AAAnthony AydinAug 21, 20254.0This was the WORST post office I’ve ever used, to visit. I complained and had long talks with the postmaster. He assured me things will improve, and they have been better since our conversation. The staff was rude, terribly slow and unprofessional, and lacked training- expect for employee named GLEN, older gentleman worked very hard and made my day, whenever I dropped off packages, GLEN is only best employee at this location.. his very helpful & not lazy or asleep like other employees… TARA AND JENNA WERE THE ABSOLUTE WORST TO WORK WITH EXTREMELY LAZY AND NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE…MARK HAS IMPROVED A LOT AND IS NOW NICE TO WORK WITH AND IS WORKING HARDER & FASTER however… The postmaster Gabriel, turned this location around, and made the location better. If it wasn’t for the postmaster, this location would have been shut down for lack of service and loss of sales performance. Overall customer service is improving from the past, the only thing I can suggest now is hiring maybe one or two new employees who are computer savvy and are fast workers to add to the employment here, and keep windows active and lines short. Nonetheless it’s all because of Gabriel E. Ali the postmaster for the success of this location. Thank you for listening to my issues and concerns.. and delivering on your promises. Sincerely - Tony. Wishing all the best…

- SRs j ruttenberJul 31, 20201.0If I could have given this post office zero stars, I would have, but Google would not let me. If you want friendly, efficient service--and a parking spot--go to the Emerson Post Office opposite Stop & Shop on Kinderkamack Road. If you want reliable mail delivery, move out of Westwood. Here are some July problems experienced in my neighborhood: 7/2 no mail, 7/6 mail delivered at 7:05pm, 7/9 mail delivered at 7:15pm, 7/10 no mail, 7/11 no mail, 7/15 mail delivered at 5:54pm, 7/20 mail delivered at 7:35pm, 7/21 mail delivered at 7:25pm. 7/23 mail delivered at 6:39pm, 7/24 no mail, 7/25 no mail, 7/28 no mail, 7/29 mail delivered at 8:15pm, 7/31 no mail. Some carriers also deliver packages which they throw onto residents' front steps or lawns. And often, mail addressed to a street two blocks away is delivered to an address on this street. Phone calls to the local post office apparently wind up in the "circular file," though whoever answers the phone (a clerk, not a supervisor--supervisors don't take phone calls) is polite.
