- TFT F3 days ago5.0Went today and the gentlemen behind the counter was very patient and pleasant. Helped me; a confused person trying to navigate a complicated delivery;with extreme care.
- JMJuan MartinezAug 4, 20261.0I was waiting for one hour and the man was working so slow very bad service .that post office is the worst I seen. In one hour I couldn't due what I supost to due.
- HJHey JessieAug 1, 20262.0Don’t even bother with this location. Most visits are a waste of time as something is always out of service/not available. The employees are miserable which honestly I would be too if I worked here.
- JPJimmy P.Jul 16, 20261.0They lost a package with non-refundable tickets. Was just on hold for over an hour before the call disconnected by itself.
- GWG J W.Jul 7, 20261.0this place is so unbelievably slow. but my main issue is the guy with dreds. He’s so slow, has a horrible attitude, and is just awful at his job. if you hate your job thats fine but dont take it out on customers. there was a line of about 15 people today and after 30 minutes of him and another customer chit chatting and taking as long as possible i bailed. he processed one customer in 30 minutes with a line of people waiting, then got angry when people spoke up.
