- TCTheresa CDec 21, 20215.0I went in the Saturday before Christmas to mail a package which I never do and wasn't really sure how to prep or anything...the lady behind the counter was kind and helped me thru the process and explained the best way to be prepared for next time in case they were busy. She was so sweet and kind. Great experience
- JPJennifer PriceMar 10, 20171.0NOTHING HAS CHNAGED IN 8 YEARS UNTIL I WENT ABOVE THE LOCAL POST OFFICE. and now its starting again. Once again didnt receive my mail even though informed delivery said it will be here today! Poor excuse for postal service. The people there are so rude. And if you live in the country it's hit or miss if they want to stop and deliver. If your driveway is longer and dirt Goodluck getting mail if it's muddy or icy. And no help with relocating our mailbox after it continues to get hit multiple times a year!
