- LWLoretta WiggintonSep 5, 20224.0Package was open and crushed box.
- TOToni OgleAug 27, 20225.0Always helpful and professional. And a big smile. Like they really enjoy their job.
- BHBobby HubbardJan 23, 20145.0I've lived in the Whitney area my whole life and the service at the local post office used to be good, just like at most post offices. But in the last several years the Whitney post office has gone to s**t. I'm not sure who is running it now but I do know, they shouldn't be. They are consistently late , lost or don't care, and everyone of them at the counter seems to have a bad attitude, like they just don't want to be there.
