The post office as a whole is great. The branch that I receive mail from does a great job at delivering my mail, however when it comes to parcels it drops the ball. In particular the "Flat Rate" boxes. The most common two day priority mail. I've since taken my business to UPS and FEDEX though I pay more, the people I send packages to receive them in a timely manner. Too often do packages not get delivered when they say they would. Thanks
