- JRJuliette RichartNov 7, 20255.0I needed help with a bunch of things and they were super helpful, friendly, and patient! Best post office experience I’ve ever had. Shoutout to Yvanka thank you for your help!
- HMHaley MAug 20, 20251.0The door to the office was still locked at 9:15 AM on 08/20/2025. I don’t know when/if they ended up opening, I had to leave.
- TWthelma wallaceJul 23, 20251.0Since Aaron ? left this station service levels have declined significantly Determined incompetence & rudeness are special combination.The gentleman who might be the mgr works in the rear and seems to have zero desire to out for assistance. When the counter agent has asked for info It appears to be an inconvenience for him Anyway just let this be a word go there only as a last resort
- JWJudy WoolseyJun 30, 20251.0The worst incompetent teller and “Randy” the supervisor who never can come out to explain anything. The teller never and I mean never knows anything or had answers or can assist. The absolute worst customer service. It’s frustrating.
- AWAugust WandersJun 4, 20252.0Hmm idk if I should go here for my P.O. Box needs, reviews are a bit scary about this location.
