The Gap Post Office has changed hands many times over the years and is one of only three franchised…read morein the local area. And I must say the current owners are the best. The service is swift, knowledgeable and on-point when it comes to seeking the best postage and shipping options for sending around Australia and overseas. The busy nature of this post office, and perhaps most, doesn't afford time for friendly chats or smiles and greetings when it's your turn to be served at the window. But that's okay...you'll get what you came for and that's all that really matters.

Rude, unprofessional staff who do not care. Unable to carry out police check. Unhelpful and…read moreabrasive and on all occasions I have been there, they reject any further enquiries and seem eager to get you out of the store. You can feel the arrogance emanating from the staff. $29.90 is the price for a police check for a volunteer position or $49.90 for a normal check BUT the gap staff refused to listen and tried to charge me $60. I called customer service for the post office and they confirmed that I was right. The gap post office takes pleasure in wasting your time and money. My advice to anyone is to take the next bus to the nearest post office that is NOT the gap's.

I run a small business from home and so I have plenty of packages coming in and out of the house…read more Most packages are delivered to me by the Oxley Post Office and all packages I send out are through them as well. As I have been dealing with this post office on a regular basis, they now know what packages to look out for on my behalf. The staff are so attentive and friendly, it makes it very easy to deal with them. The post office itself is quite small, but they do have all the basic postage needs required such as the boxes, packets, sleeves, bubble wrap, envelopes, stamps etc. However, because it is quite small, there normally is only two staff behind the counter and during lunch time is can get quite busy. So be sure to expect this at that time or come earlier or later in the day. Conveniently located next to the Oxley train station and plenty of parking space in the area.

St Lucia News is my local newsagent at the end of a line of shops at Hawken Village (The Ville) in…read moreSt Lucia. While it does not offer much more than your average newsagent it is a little quirky. Inside, right up the back, you will find the St Lucia South Post Office. This is little more than a hole in the wall and a few envelopes on sale but it does the job. The rest of the newsagent is as you would expect but with very small ailes to walk through. It is never too busy so the service is always fast and everyone pretty friendly. I am yet to buy a scratchie that has won anything from here though.

Staff may not always be particularly friendly unless you're a regular customer, but they are very…read moreefficient, and manage to sort through quite long lines very quickly. As with all post offices, there's a lot of weird gift things, which seem to be quite expensive for what they are, but I suppose someone must buy them, or they wouldn't have them. In this day of "do everything on the internet", it's good to know how useful Post Offices are (and probably good to know now, so you'll know where to go when your computer/internet breaks...)

I've been putting off going in to get my licence transferred from Vic to Qld because every time I…read morewalked past I saw heaps of people waiting and didn't want to sit around for an hour. But having just bought a new bike I had to transfer the rego and couldn't put it off. So I bit the bullet and headed in at around 11 and was seen within 5 minutes. Unfortunately for me I was missing proof of address and had to head to the bank. On my return I again only had to wait about 5 minutes and the lady who served me was very friendly and thorough. I don't know why I waited for so long....no i just have to hope that my licence photo will be half decent!

Well, you haven't met the husband and wife that run the Red Hill Post Office otherwise you'd be nodding your head in absolute understanding when those five bold red stars say this post office is as good as it gets. We've had our post office box with the Red Hill post office for about 18 months and yet to have a drama. We're able to call and chat with the owner to ask if there's any parcels and often if I have to collect something from the early hours door he'll greet me at the door with the parcel without me having to say what box I'm from. SERVICE! Plus, a post office that can lure you with stationery delights as you stand in line is a-ok by me. A note on lines actually. I have no patience for them but even when it's been busy by the Red Hill post office standards the line has, at most, been 4 or 5 deep and seen to quickly. Sure a post office is a post office. But the Red Hill Post Office is what I imagine a local country town post office - one where everyone knows your name.

When did post offices become stationary stores, too? I've been fond of stationary since I was a…read morekid, and like an easily-distracted 5-year-old I could spend quite some time here going over cool notepads, silver-ink pens, diaries and the like if it was socially acceptable. They also have a wide selection of books, puzzles, board games and the sort of items you might find in a toy store or magic shop. Yes, they sell envelopes and all that jazz, but these items are relegated to the back wall. Presumably the cool stuff is there for impulse-buyers or to keep the kids occupied whilst Mum or Dad line up to get their postal needs serviced. However, though Red Hill Post Office is very publicly located, I've never found it to be overly busy. Usually I just walk straight up to the counter. This is certainly unusual for Brisbane's inner-city post offices, particularly Paddington Central Post Office which is perpetually packed; sometimes the line even winds its way outside of the (much larger) store. Red Hill Post Office also offers passport services. It was only recently discovered that not all post offices in Brisbane do this. Arranging it is easy and can be done over the Internet, by phone or via a visit.
