- JWJim WatsonMar 27, 20261.0Closed early and denied service.
- ABAbe BenjaminMar 13, 20265.0Un-bias review. Okay, so the building itself isn’t dirty. It’s actually clean. It’s located next door to a bridge/very busy, drug infested abomination of a gas station (Keys). I’d imagine it is a nightmare to keep a building spotless with needles, homeless people and trash thrown everywhere constantly by customers at the gas station! All and all, the lobby is great. The carriers are decent but some are extremely careless with delivery. The clerks in the lobby are an absolute DREAM to work with. The lovely ladies try their absolute best to assist customers with there issues. A lot of Karen’s in the comments don’t realize the delivery problems are on the CARRIERS and not the people who work in the lobby. Overall, Bywater is extremely efficient and helpful.
- CBChrissy BenoitOct 9, 20181.0Well the bummer is as usual staffing. There are currently 15 people in line. The guy at the counter has an issue with a missing package so the 1 staff member has disappeared...usps your lucky your government funded
- JVJenna VirgoAug 25, 20185.0Very friendly, efficient staff at my two visits to this location. There was essentially no wait time. This is by far my preferred post office in New Orleans.
- GMG MDec 8, 20151.0My package has been saying out for delivery for 3 business days. However when I confront the mail person they have no mail. When i go rk the office they say its being delivered! I paid a lot for my package and if I dnt get it somebody is giving me my money back!
