- NBNoah BlutaelJul 26, 20251.0Had a package that was supposed to be delivered today that got transferred over to here instead, despite the location being closed. Now I'm stuck having to wait until Monday for it to get delivered. Update: It's Monday and instead of delivering my package like they were supposed to, they claimed that the address was wrong and that the package was undeliverable, despite it being a small package that can easily fit in a mailbox or just be left at the front door. Absolutely atrocious and unacceptable deliver service. Avoid using them for any package deliveries if you can!
- NNNanCMay 15, 20255.0My grandson has learned about our postal service and how mail is processed from this location. It’s the perfect small, quaint, historic location with a great postal clerk.
- JHJohn HammonsSep 3, 20221.0The lady who works here is very rude and has been multiple times I have visited. This is the 2nd time I have posted this. The first review was deleted and not by me. I have no idea where these other reviews, that say all positive things, are coming from. The lady is rude and needs a 180 degree about face in customer service skills.
- BPBarbara PettardOct 23, 20125.0I only go to the Yorktown post office: The Lady KNOWS what the cost of mailing letters are; international, she is always a great deal of help and very nice! the hours are not long enough but you get in and out so quickly, I make it a point to fit my time to their hours.
