- ANAshleigh NewellAug 7, 20265.0New to the area, but go to the post office almost every day. All the employees I’ve met here so far seem really nice, everyone’s been super helpful whenever I need anything beyond just dropping my packages off. Also love that they have a bucket for dropping off pre-labeled packages. A lot of post offices don’t have that and then get mad when you have more than a couple to send out. Not these folks though!

- JJJustlilolmeJun 17, 20265.0This is the best post office, nice employees and fast service
- GFGrace FlintJun 9, 20263.0Dan is very nice. The woman at the front desk with the brown hair- not so nice. I was confused on what happens to mail when it is lost and as to how the mail preview works. I didn't understand her explanation and asked for clarification as to "where does the mail go" if it is not delivered but shows up in the preview. She walked away annoyed with me mid sentence and said you'll need to speak to Dan. Dan came out and explained in detail how the preview works, how long I should wait for the mail to show up and when to contact them again. Kindness goes a long way.
- RJRegina JoanApr 1, 20241.0I’ve never had an issue with usps until moving to plainville. They always say they try to deliver something but ‘there was no access to my mailbox’ … I LIVE IN AN APARTMENT!!! My mailbox is outside my door. I looked at my cameras and the van didn’t even attempt to come inside the parking lot. LAZY workers…! So frustrating. Can’t wait to move in a few months. 🙄
