  It was tempting to give this post office one star. The one-star reviewers here amount to nearly a majority, and they are nearly all describing the same clerk. I will not describe her further, because everyone in Edmonds already knows who is meant, the way a small town knows its weather. I have stood in that line many times and heard things come from behind that counter that would be shocking anywhere, and are somehow more shocking at a post office, an institution whose entire premise is that things arrive where they are going without incident. But sometimes a thing is so wrong, so reliably and spectacularly wrong, that the only dignified response is to find the absurdity in it. Like when you are rushing to the airport and your Uber runs out of gas on the highway. Actually out of gas. On the highway. And the driver turns out to be an immigrant with a finer command of English and a clearer read on the American situation than most of the people we elect to explain it to us. What do you do? You cannot be angry at everything at once. You laugh, and you make the flight or you don't. A reviewer on Yelp wrote that being scolded at this post office is practically a rite of passage in Edmonds, and I laughed out loud, because it is true, and because it means we are all initiates. I like to imagine climbing Mount Fuji, or standing on Easter Island, and meeting a stranger who turns out to be from Edmonds, and watching the conversation drift, as it inevitably must, to a certain counter. There would be no need to explain anything. That is what a landmark is. And here is the thing: the rest of the staff are great. Genuinely, patiently great, and they show up every day beside the legend and do the work. It is for them that I cannot and will not give this post office anything other than five stars. The stars are for the many. The story, I'm afraid, is for the one.

  Walked in, paid the shipping cost, shipped my item, walked out. Easy peasy.

  It was not open until 09:10 on weekday. Very disappointing.

  I have come here a handful of times. and each time I have received excellent service. The two ladies that work here are always ready to help, especially Charlotte. Recently she assisted me with a sending a package and was incredibly helpful. There are many places you can go for sending packages, but this one has a truly friendly staff that will always greet you with a smile.

  This post office staff has always been phenomenal. Their iob is to ship packages/ letters for vou, or to hand vou mail if vou pick it up Always have been super polite to me, but I alsc don't expect to be treated like the USPS number one customer, nor do I expect them to be a concierge service, get a valet if you think you deserve better than dealing with other human beings.
