    I don't know why the poor rating on this post office. It's small and a bit awkward to drive in and…read moreout of, but seriously? I've seen many post offices a lot smaller and stranger than this one. It has the usual P.O. boxes for rent, and a small store inside with boxes, packages, and other supplies to purchase, along with the usual Priority/Express supplies. There is a clean counter to use to prep your items with pens, etc. The gentleman who works here is polite and helpful. I've spent time prepping things at the counter and have overheard him dealing with other customers and he is very patient and kind, especially considering how many elderly appear to use this particular branch.

    Man I thought the downtown Lakeland post office was bad but it's the freaking Taj Mahal compared to…read morethis one. And it's not that the service is especially terrible here (slow to be sure, but the clerks are at least pleasant), it's the location, size and poor layout of the place itself. Also, the sign is parallel - not perpendicular - to the street. You know how many times I've driven past this place because I couldn't tell it was a post office?! First of all, it's located on the fastest intersection of S Florida Ave and also the most cramped. I'll bet accidents are common here. Secondly, the parking lot is extremely cramped. I almost got T-boned pulling into it because a car in the first parking space was backing out as I was pulling in and there's no way to go around a car backing out (unless you have a moped maybe). Additionally, there are not one, not two, but THREE wicked blind spots you have to navigate through just to GTFO (see photos). As for the actual post office it's very cramped. The hallways are narrow, the main room is also tiny and quiet. There's usually not too many people here and yet the clerks still take forever to complete transactions. At least they're friendly. There's just no reason to go here. The downtown branch is only a mile or two away and has much easier access parking and a much bigger space. Unless you live within walking distance, I see no reason to use this branch.

    I just went online to google the post office hours and saw they had 1 star and HAD to leave a…read morereview. I hope someone else does this too because these workers do not deserve that. They've been getting their butts kicked with COVID. Less staff, more business and more procedures that slow things down. These very essential workers get from me! I sell stuff on EBay all the time and they are always polite and fast! Yes, if you go at the wrong time you might wait behind 20 people but they are up there taking care of each person just how you would want to be taken care of and moving as fast as they can! Learn how to use the self service machine if you can't wait. This Post Office is great and mistakes happen. Get tracking numbers & get informed delivery, things happen. I've never had an issue and visit weekly.

    Called about passport information got their automated "service" and ended up not talking to anyone…read more I know they have people in the office they just don't bother to answer the phone. They screw up getting mail to us, they don't take responsibility for their screw up; they can't be bothered to answer questions unless you come into the office. Even the office on Lakeland Hills Blvd. in Lakeland doesn't do its job and answer questions. Each year they keep saying they need more money per stamp, but the service quality drops more each year. Maybe we should just get rid of the post office what a waste of tax money!
