- GTGaly TellezSep 17, 20251.0I never post reviews but todays visit to this place made me just agree with everyone that says customer service is terrible they have a attitude they treated me like if i was ignorant and dont know my address i was just asking a simple question and got humilliated if somebody knows where i can write or send a formal complaint please let me know thank you!!
- ARAshley RaynalJul 18, 20251.0DON’T go here. Seriously save your time or go out of your way to go somewhere else. The lady wouldn’t let me send my package because my return address was for my permanent home in a different state and not WA.
- JVJoe'l VelezJun 11, 20251.0Brown long haired wide set lady who sits down when doing her work always has a crazy attitude and has something to say about every single package you send off. Every time I see her I gotta do a deep exhale cuz she’s rude and irritating. I use the self service kiosk to avoid talking to her and even then so she finds a way to police me at the self service cuz I’m sending off too many packages??
- JCJohn ClaryFeb 10, 20211.0This is by far the worst post office in America!! I’ve had all the same problems as the other disgruntled reviews below. I don’t normally leave reviews but I mailed a box that weighs 14.7oz and two days later got it back in my mailbox with a sticker saying I needed more postage for 2lbs. I took it to the post office in Lacey and they guy said it weighs 14.7 oz your good sorry for them sending it back to you they should’ve mailed it!!!
- LLLisaJul 16, 20201.0Worst customer service. Unprofessional and incompetent. They don't know how to do their job. Also constantly missing packages.
