Again very disappointed with this post office. This is not a one-time issue and I am sure I am not the only one, more than three of my packages have gone missing in less than 2 months from inside this facility. Each time, I report it and all I get is an apology, but no real explanation or resolution. The customer service has been equally frustrating and unprofessional. At this point, repeated missing packages need to be properly investigated, not simply apologized for. I will be escalating this to USPS management and request a professional review of this office and how packages are being handled.

This post office has poor customer service employees hate to work literally waited about 15 minutes on the phone to speak with a representative just so they can hang up on me and I have to call back and set another 15 minutes to figure out what’s going on with my package that stays delivered and it’s missing.

I really wish I could give this place zero stars. The staff here are terrible. I went in to send a package with a QR code, and they told me they don’t do that here. They used to do it before, but now they don’t? It seems like they only help certain people.
