The place is garbage, just like the ratings suggests.
They LOST my package that will take weeks to get here, the ADDRESS WAS CORRECT... CONFIRMED. They sent it do another place... because why not, right? "There is nothing we can do about it" 👍🏻

They hold your package when its 30 min away and make it take 2 times as long it doesn't matter if you pay extra shipping or anything it still takes forever I wish more websites used ups or FedEx bc it will actually arrive on time

If only Google allowed a review with negative stars. This location doesn't deserve 1 star. If you have any way to refrain from ever doing any shipping out of this building, avoid it like the plague-that is unless you like your packages getting lost and/or sitting in the same place for weeks at a time. I have heard of the government being inefficient, but this place drops the bar so low that an ant couldn't do the limbo under it. I could've hitched my package to a tortoise and sent it on its way across the country and it would've beaten any package shipped out of here. They could bulldoze the building and build a Buc-ees and I think the shipping network in Chattanooga would actually improve.
