It seems like the Post Office gets bad reviews no matter the location. I can't speak for other places, but my experience with the Harrisburg PO has been great. Friendly, helpful, and haven't had any issues with mail going astray. It must be a job with many challenges (based on the number of complaints everywhere), but I really appreciate it being an option for mail.

Well the courier person did it again. They marked both my husband's and my Amazon packages delivered and set on our front porch. Well, our neighbor next to us delivered our packages we didn't have. These people couldn't possibly be so hurried to have no time to verify they are at the correct address.. this is complete nonsense, I have NEVER had a problem with my mail/packages either being delivered to the wrong address or it being marked as delivered but not recieve it the day it was marked delivered until i moved to Harrisburg. It's so sad these people are careless with other residents packages.

If I could give 0 stars I would! Sad to say our Federal postal service is seriously declining in customer service. I had a package delivering to my family today (In Harrisburg)and when I checked the status this morning it had been returned to the post office because the address was incomplete? I called to find out what this was about and the manager answering the phone said they don’t deliver that far - Even though they live right off the main hwy, in town less than 1/2 mile from the post office. I asked her why when I put the address in on Amazon, it allowed me to request delivery there if they don’t deliver there - she was extremely rude and could only offer to put it in the P.O. Box for my family to come get it. Since I didn’t know their P.O. Box, there was nothing that could be done. How are people supposed to know that the USPS doesn’t deliver to certain houses on certain streets in town, when they are not the local customers? Thinking Amazon should have made their contract with UPS or FedEx - they don’t seem to have these delivery issues!
