- SMSamantha MontaubanMar 31, 20265.0Despite the negative reviews I saw on Google, I’ve honestly had nothing but positive experiences at this post office since moving to the area. It’s clearly a very busy location with limited staff, and from what I’ve seen, they’re doing the best they can. I’ve been here multiple times for basic transactions like change of address, mailing out packages, and passport applications, and each time the workers have been helpful, accommodating, and even had a great sense of humor. I think a lot of the frustration in reviews comes from people not getting the exact outcome they want, but at the end of the day, the post office is essentially a middleman. From my experience, the staff here genuinely try to help however they can—and that goes a long way. I would highly recommend!
- BABarbara AllenApr 18, 20245.0Efficient, polite, friendly, and helpful.
- LLLetFeb 17, 20241.0This location is the worst one in the country. They "No Access" my property all the time. I live in the city with a 100 foot black top driveway. Then if you ever attempt to call they simply will not pick up. I spent 2 days no stop calling with no answer. I call victory mills or Schuylerville and they pick up first ring. This location is somehow allowed to not do their job. Oh and today I picked up mail from my mailbox and had 3 different neighbors mail in my box. Its actually laughable.
- MCM R CNov 3, 20221.0Literally have called 100 plus times in the last 2 weeks during business hours. No one picks up the phone. It is unbelievable that it is impossible to get a hold of anyone at this location. The prompt says Saratoga springs post office, says it's connecting to an operator, rings several times, then disconnects no matter how many times you call. Good luck if you have an issue, looks like you're making an in person trip.
