Would give 5 stars if the office hours were longer... I absolutely hate- not only being forced to use a P.O. Box., but dealing with the ridiculously short window of time to be able to get my packages. Maybe get more of the bigger mailboxes that can be accessed after office hours?? Not only 2🙄... But on the positive side I guess, any postal worker I've encountered is very friendly.

Yes the hours are short, but there is never a line and the clerk even called to let me know I had mail being held for pick up.
