- JLJochen LauterbachNov 29, 20251.0Got there on a Saturday at 11 am, they were closed. As we were standing outside with other customers, a guy appeared and told us they would open in 5 min (over one hour late!). Waited in line, turned out, they had no stamps to sell. A post office not capable to sell stamps! How low can you fall? Also, when a customer approaches you and says, "Good morning", common courtesy would make you reply or even look up. Not so at this post office...... Update: returned on Monday, they had no Christmas stamps. They sold us other stamps for our international cards, but we just found out they are for $1.27 instead of the necessary $1.70. So we have the wrong postage on all our cards.
- JHJamie HNov 7, 20251.0I see why they have crappy views.. I will just take my package to UPS.
- ACAngela CAug 18, 20251.0I’m trying to figure out why they keep saying they’ve delivered a package in my mailbox when the package is clothes and won’t fit in my mailbox so Now where is my damn package that’s I’ve paid money for????
- PSPeter StewartJul 18, 20251.0Hours say they close at 5 on weekdays but they locked the door right in front of me at 4:30. Sad…
- WCWill CusicFeb 13, 20241.0Took them 2.5 weeks to re-key my mailbox after moving here after telling me it would only take 2-3 days. They’re either severely understaffed or failed to communicate after the mailbox was actually re-keyed.
