This location does not deliver any packages that doesn't fit in your mailbox or are heavy. Usually Macombs Post office is routed to deliver packages in the 10031 zip code. If a package is delivered to Hamilton Grange Post office they "lie" and say they made an "attempt delivery" and want you to pick up the package. It's an inconvenience, especially if you live ten blocks away.
They do not like to do their job. It's a small post office. The lines are always completely long with maybe two workers because the others don't like to do their job. They do not have adequate supplies and for and for many years they didn't have pens for customers to fill out info to mail. The same workers for many years need to be re-trained.

On Sunday September 14 2025
i was waiting for my package through usps and delivery time at 4.55 pm but i received an update says
‘We attempted to deliver your item at 3:34 pm on September 14, 2025 in NEW YORK, NY 10031 and a notice was left because no secure delivery location was available.’
Which is lie because first of all sunday they are closed and second that location is always problem for 12 years. They never deliver the package and they are rude even though you complain to the manager he doesn’t care obviously they all care about $$. Never ever that location again. They dont smile even to go there pick up the package they treat like we are the enemies.
