- ESEva Gee ScottAug 21, 20255.0We had the best experience at the North Garden Post Office! Alicia was phenomenal helping our whole family with our passport applications, including our two children. She made the process smooth and stress-free. I always come here for my mailing needs, and the service is consistently wonderful. Highly recommend!
- AGAsmita GApr 14, 20255.0Probably the first usps office that has five star and they deserve it! Had an appointment for passport and photo, was in and out in 5 min. Very efficient and helpful staff members.
- TMTara H MorrisMar 21, 20255.0The ladies here are so wonderful! I always drive 20-30 minutes to this post office for all my passport needs. They’re kind, efficient, and care about what they do. It took 15 minutes for me and my two sons to get photos and passport renewals. I didn’t have an appointment for myself, but once I mentioned I needed to do it the lovely ladies squeezed me in. It’s the best little post office!
- VWVeronica WyattSep 23, 20245.0Absolute gem of a post office. Helped us with our passport applications with so much patience and kindness!
- PHPatrick HeraghtyApr 11, 20185.0Obviously a Post Office provides all the same services as all the other Post Offices. Yet, the North Garden Post Office is able to provide those services quickly and usually with a smile and a kind word. If you live south of Charlottesville and need to visit the Post Office, try the North Garden location. You will be glad you did. Did I mention that the longest line I have ever waited in there was one person long.
