- EWErin WatrasOct 29, 20251.0If minus stars were an option I would have given this pit -5 of them. Not only were they not able to keep their criminal employees in check long enough to prevent them from OPENING the card I sent to my brother in Richmond , but then when I attempted to call to discuss the crime with , what I assumed would be a concerned post master, I called and was hung up on 6 times! Not only is it a disappointment to have this happen but it is mind blowing that they find the time to pilfer through other people's mail instead of doing the ONE THING they are paid to do. If you are expecting anything but a hassle here you are expecting too much.
- RSRich SOct 27, 20251.0Horrible location, worse than other usps
- CMConnor MAug 27, 20251.0Employees here are very disrespectful and lazy, go to a better USPS and avoid dealing with their bs
- CMCharlotte MiddletonAug 6, 20255.0Had a great easy experience here dropping off some certified mail!
- LSLevi SpookJul 3, 20251.0I'm just not sure what the issue is with this place. All three times I've went I've had a negative experience. I can understand someone having a bad day, but the clerks here are always so difficult to work with. My last experience was especially bad. There was only one clerk working, and people lined up out the door. I finally get to the desk and was told I needed to pay $19 to mail a pin and a bracelet to Canada. At my last post office, I mailed a bracelet to Israel for $5. She also insisted I couldn't use the mailer I brought, saying the label wouldn't fit on it - even though it clearly could have. She made me get out of line twice, acting as me filling out an address and customs form would take me 10 minutes. It took me less than 30 seconds. It sucks cause this post office is right next to me, but I just don't see myself ever using it again. I'd rather drive 10 minutes to one that isn't inclined to ship things out for the highest possible price.
