- MBmoss billmanApr 4, 20253.0the lady behind the counter is a magician which is to say that not only did she help me mail my items, but that i turned around for a second and she had disappeared for up to a half hour
- MAMike AlvarezSep 16, 20241.0⚠️⚠️⚠️Warning!! Do not come to this PO unless you have called and are sure they are open. They do not open on time or close on time. If you can’t get anyone to confirm they are open, go somewhere else. Don’t waste your time.
- CSChiem SaeteurnAug 13, 20241.0They open when they want, they close when they want. Better off finding a post office elsewhere
- ASAnne Marie SaldajenoDec 6, 20231.0Really want to support this location, but went over there at 10:30 on a Tuesday this week and no one was working. There was a (hastily hand-written) sign in the window, but seriously.....What is going on here? Can the USPS justify a location that has no reliable staff? They should just change the hours to noon - 3pm, 3x a week. At least then we'd know when to stop by. So sad. The old location was fully staffed by caring and friendly people. I miss that one.....
