Not sure why they even have phones if they refuse to answer throughout the day. Ive tried calling over 25 times today, and not a single time was one of those calls answered. Probably one of the worst USPS locations I've ever encountered. Very unfortunate that they're my local office.

Nobody ever answers the phone here. It doesn’t matter what time of day you call (between 9 am-4:30 pm) or if you call 10 times in a row, your call will go unanswered every single time. And lucky for you you can waste your time multiple times by calling repeatedly then driving there only to be told “your package is on the delivery truck” even though it’s too large to deliver to a mailbox “come back tomorrow”.
