- ATArsenio TorresAug 22, 20251.0Whoever the driver that deliver and not bring your package to your door are trash and lazy. Do your job that they pay you the right way.
- LVLiza VJul 19, 20251.0I think it's part of the job/training to be extremely rude.
- PFPedro Carregal FerreiraJun 3, 20254.0Reliable and Essential, Gets the Job Done! For the most part, the USPS is a service I genuinely rely on and appreciate. Giving it four stars because, let's be honest, they handle an incredible volume of mail and packages every single day, and more often than not, my letters and packages arrive where they need to go, safe and sound. The sheer reach they have, delivering to virtually every address in the country, is something that's easy to take for granted but is truly impressive. For everyday mail, sending cards, and even many package shipments, they are usually my go-to. The price is generally fair, especially for the breadth of service provided. I've had countless positive interactions with my local carriers over the years – those folks work hard in all kinds of weather, and that dedication doesn't go unnoticed. Of course, it's not always perfect. There can be the occasional hiccup with tracking updates or an unexpected delay, which can be frustrating when it happens. And sometimes a visit to the post office can involve a bit of a wait. But when you consider the massive scale of their operation, they do a remarkably good job. Overall, the USPS is an essential service that, despite its imperfections, performs admirably. They connect us, deliver important documents, and bring those eagerly awaited packages. Definitely a solid and dependable option.
