Absolutely love this place. The ladies here are friendly knowledgeable and possess a level of patience I could never. I have witnessed many occasions where they have been disrespected and threatened, treated like trash and still they show up and do their best. A few of you need to show some respect to the people who are helping you. They are not your servants and your taxes DO NOT contribute to their paychecks. Accept the fact that they have rules and regulations that they must follow and enforce, and you too must abide by them when necessary.

The customer service at this post office is so bad that I wouldn’t even give them one star. Unfortunately, you have to select at least one star to write a review. If you don’t want headaches or problems, do NOT come to this post office.

Worst customer service I have ever experienced. The employees here do not care about helping customers and give incorrect information. When they make a mistake, they refuse to take responsibility or even look into the issue. Instead of helping, they send you to other locations and waste your time. They act like your problem is not important to them at all. Very disappointing and unprofessional.

I walked into this post office and I was not ready. Ms Sherice was patient while I pulled up my QR code and even made conversation with me asking me about my day. Good customer service is so lost these days. Thank you Sherice for your kindness and patience
