- CCChris2GoatEDJun 15, 20261.0Been waiting on a package for 2 weeks and it’s gets to this disruption center 10 minutes away from my house, then 2 days later it’s somehow in Portland Oregon
- DJDerek JohnstonNov 23, 20225.0They have the best employees at this location. I usually print out my labels at home and drop my packages off at this location. One time I had an international package and was going to pay/fill out the customs form in the office. I forgot my wallet, offered to just come back the next day. The sweet lady working told me she would pay with her own money for it to get shipped out and I could pay her back the next time I'm there. I came back the next day of course to pay her back, that was very sweet and generous on her part.
- YHYvonne HuangApr 8, 20225.0I feel most people won't take the time to leave positive reviews but want to share my experience. Just came here to drop off a package and the employee greeted me and communicated professionally, got everything done in under 30 seconds.
- SSSpencer SiscoApr 5, 20221.0They changed my mailbox lock and gave me a new key, then after they put a hold on my mail which I removed. It's even 3 weeks and still no mail and they can't tell me where it's at. I receive weekly workman comp checks through the mail which I now can't get.
