Sunday delivery is flat out lying about attempting to deliver a package. "Could not access the delivery location" which is complete BS, it's the same open street and porch as always. The Sunday employee just didn't feel like doing their job.
Our Monday through Saturday delivery people are very reliable and consistent.

I came in to mail my LLc documents out and the old lady was very rude .. She stared at me then asked what are you here for?? I was completely shocked the way she said it, she was very rude. I went back to her window then she slides the blue sign saying next window please. Very racist . The boy was going to help me but I decided not to let them mail my documents because i didn't want him taking my papers to the back..

My outgoing mail never gets picked up. I see TONS of mail trucks driving around but my house always gets passed. Seems like they only stop when there’s incoming mail. My mailbox flag is up. It’s been up for a week with mail that needs taken!!! This isn’t the first time this has happened either! Seems like calling the USPS falls on deaf ears from the looks of these other reviews. I will be putting in a complaint anyway. This is highly irritating.

It is completely unfair and unintelligent to rate this USPS based on the weather or not getting your mail for a day or two. Especially not having any idea how logistics work. They have not lost any outgoing and my carrier is Sean, he’s outstanding! Some of you aren’t kind to begin with and shouldn’t be allowed to interact with the public. Keep up the good work USPS. Again, Sean rocks!
