I took a number -- THEN a postal employee told me I could just put them in the postal receptacle. I hauled these boxes to said receptacles. Two guys had the same situation. They caught on, and we had a party of getting everybody's said postage-paid packages into the receptacles. One of mine was kinda big. One of the guys smushed it in. It's lovely to get assistance from a stranger. And then we laughed.

It was meant to arrive on August 3. My package arrived ONLY TODAY on August 18. Except it wasn't even my glasses- it was the top of the box with a "we care" note on the back. Clearly you do NOT care. I wait weeks and weeks and this is what I receive? It's absolutely abhorrent the type of things that have been happening at this location. Not only did my mother waste money shipping it, but I wasted money having to request new ones to begin with. Do better.

I spoke to a blonde, older, female manager who was trying to look it up in the system after I've been waiting for 20 minutes and there was 20 other people in line and I told her I would just dispute the transaction with my bank since they did not provide the service that I paid for even though the address is correct. The gentleman at the desk typed in the address and it came right up in the system, and again I told Manager see I told you it's the correct address. They made me repay for the package again to ship it. I informed the manager I would just dispute it with my bank because they did not deliver the package or provide the service that I paid them for, and tried saying I had entered it incorrect, which was proven by the computer I did not The manager was not friendly and I am not kidding. They were over 20 people online and she was not doing anything to help the two people upfront. I felt terrible for them. They were getting so many comments that were unnecessary Management needs a step up and should have worked the other computer that was at the front desk to help customers

PASSPORT SERVICE EXPERIENCE:…read more I missed the coveted online renewal period (after waiting my whole life for online renewal opportunities! lol), and found myself needing to renew my hence expired passport. I read up on everything that I needed to do ahead of time, so I felt that was prepared. However, I got to the window and as the PO clerk went through his checklist, he got me on one thing - the money order. Gah! Luckily, he stated that he could sell me a money order if I could pay with cash or debit card. No problemo! I paid the expedited fees and off my data went! This was done on 29Dec. I received my new passport on 10Jan! Wow! Efficiency! I actually went back to this location with my best friend who also needed a new passport. Since she was only 4 years old on her last passport, and that passport book was forever lost, she had to start over with a new passport. Her process was a little different. 1st - You HAVE to make an appointment. You can do this online via the USPS website. 2nd - documents. New passports require multiple proofs of citizenship/IDs along with copies, front and back, of the original copies. (I don't know why they need all that.) Generally, the original birth certificate with the seal, social security card, driver's license. Copies of each; front and back of driver's license. If you're a married person who has taken on the surname of your betrothed, bring the marriage certificate (to prove/support why your last name differs from that on your birth certificate) and a copy of the marriage certificate. My friend also got her photo taken here. She had one taken at CVS but she liked the post office photography better so she used that photo instead. (I wish I'd done the same, because mine is definitely fugly!) Again, the young man assisting us was very helpful through the entire process. I'll be bringing my daughter here next to ensure a pleasant passport experience for her.

On 17 August, I was supposed to receive a letter from the IRS so I checked mail on 18 August and there was nothing there so I waited until the ending of the week on that Friday and gave them a call when I still hadn't received anything yet. The lady on the phone told me that just because I received an email stating that it would be received this week doesn't mean that I'll actually receive it this week and to wait. I thought that was weird but I said OK. I will wait. I waited more than a week later and then I called again today 2nd Sept, since I haven't received my mail. The same lady told me she doesn't know when I would be receiving the mail cause it could be that they misplaced it and it's being rerouted. They lost my mail from the IRS. I'm pissed.

They are there to do their job and educate what you need to ship your item, that's it. They don't care about their tone, just communicating the information you need. No one ever uses the number machine. It's just there for decoration I think. Just get in line and you'll see people scattered trying to fill out things they forgot or didn't know they needed. Its a bit bigger than most post offices so at least you can find a space to fill out your documents. I'll return because its the USPS.

Nobody seems terribly unhappy to be there. They're genuinely kind. Lorenz, in particular, is consistently humorous and always helpful. They utilize the ever reliable Take-A-Number system, with a red paper tab dispenser just inside the entrance. As I usually have pre-paid labels, I often can sail in and out by simply dropping my package on the closest counter, after scanning it on the machine in the lobby. The one thing that remains a mystery, though I would venture guess that they would tell me if asked, is that the parking lot is almost always jammed - and there are like three patrons inside. My most educated guess is that it's overflow employee parking from the back lot? I go a bit out of my way to come here as I get the most consistent service, tbh!
