****Long Review Alert**** Just wanted to say thank you for being such a great team. A nice young lady I believe from The email I seen her name is Ariel she has outstanding customer service i have been going thru a real stressful time and just her assistance today really changed the outlook of my whole day and I appreciate that so I just wanted to reach out and say thank you and leave a review on Jack London mail. I have been with jack london mail since 2014 or 2015, this past year has been the best team since I signed up. Thank you very much to each individual worker your kindness with assistance goes along way. Cant thank you all enough. I recommend aMail. Who may need a personal or business address box its well worth it. Jack London Mail is a one stop shop They may do more than im listing but im referring to services I have used with them print and mail service, faxing, pack and mail service, notary service, mail drop off with usps i think there are a few more handlers you van drop off mail but im not sure. This new location has a parking lot. Box prices are competitive and they offer sooo many services and you can also get your packages sent there too. One thing I love is that you as a box renter once they close I can go in after hours to retrieve my mail if I cant make it before they close at 6pm. read more

Great new location, much cleaner and well laid out than the last one with nice PO Boxes

Been coming here since their old location. Everyone is so nice and printing and mailing always goes so smoothly!

This company is on so BS. I found their info from an auction house and I wanted a quote for shipping. I emailed them on Friday with the email they have all over the website info@jacklondonmail.com. They answer back on Monday with a list of info they need. I send it in. Heard nothing for 2 days so I call on Wednesday to check and dude first tells me he can't find the email, then he finds it and tells me he's going to send it to the appropriate person and they'll reach out the next day. Heard nothing again so I call on Friday and the same dude tell me, "oh, actually you gotta send emails about auction quotes to another email, auction@jacklondonmail.com. Why is that not shared anywhere on the website!? Why did no one say anything in the emails, when I explicitly say "I need a quote for an auction item" and they sent a detailed response about what they need!?! So it's been a whole week and the auction house needs a payment 7 days from winning bid. Shipper beware. read more

I've been using the services of Jack London Mail for about three years now. It's just a few blocks from where I work, making it super convenient. After moving from Oakley to Paso Robles but still working full-time in Oakland, I needed an easy way to access my mail, so I've been renting a post office box with them ever since. The service has been seamless. The staff accepts packages, tags them, and sends you a notification when they arrive, which has saved me from making unnecessary trips. I've also used their postal and shipping services a few times. They've packed up items for me, and everything has always arrived in perfect condition. The staff at Jack London Mail is great--friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help when you walk in. While I probably won't need their P.O. box services for much longer, I've been really happy with the price and the service over the years. I highly recommend them if you need mail or shipping services. read more

Every time I come here, the folks here are incredibly patient and helpful. I'm so grateful they're in the neighborhood!

Friendly and trustworthy! Owner and employees are very helpful! No long lines. They will pack items to ship.

Very fast and friendly service. I have no complaints about this place. So happy to have these services nearby

I live next door so this is my go-to place to get stamps, office supplies, and anything having to do with mail. For example the other day I came in to have a package delivered that required a tracking number. They will also except any USPS you need mailed out that day. The customer service is always friendly and helpful. They are opened basically bank hours so get in before 6pm. read more

Exceptional good pack and ship service. Art work was picked up, expertly packaged and speedily posted.

I am constantly blown away by Jack London Mail. I have lived in Jack London for years and have only gone there and recommend everyone else go there too. Every person that has helped me has been so sweet and helpful. The gentleman today was above and beyond. I was mailing a PlayStation and a Nintendo switch across the US and had been pretty anxious about it. He was extremely careful and meticulous with handling and boxing everything up that it immediately put me at ease. He was just happy to help and never made me feel like I was asking too much, or I was being inconvenient. I am not sure how Jack London Mail manages to hire the absolutely best most genuine people, but I am forever impressed, and I always feel like I am in good hands. read more

I have been using this location for over three years. No issues to this date of writing. Very helpful staff, friendly, and questions answered. Very clean, functional, and quaint. Location is well lit inside ame outside for late after hours mails retrieval (not suggesting) . Very satisfied with overall assessment. read more

Amazing customer service and convenient location to drop off FedEx/DHL packagers as well as USPS up to 5 items. He was kind enough to waive the 16 cent charge for printing out my label since I only had my card. read more

Do not rent here! They will open your mail and steal it! I've had all my mail tampered with. If it was the carrier, only that mail would be opened! But yet every package or piece of mail has been opened from different carriers! I'm warning everyone that one or both of these girls are thief's I'm going to a lawyer to sue them for tampering with federal mail! Look at this business owner making his customer out to be the bad guy! What a bad person! This is not about money, never has been! It's about my packages and mail being tampered with! Envelopes being partially opened. Small boxes opened enough to the see the contents. I just paid a years rent here last month for $288.00! So it's not about money. Its about you got thief's working at your store and you are stupid enough to cover for that person and lie for them and lose good customers over it! Warning to all future customers, beware of this guy and his business. I caught them and now he's trying to throw everything he can to make me look bad. If they are so innocent, why did you refuse to help me catch who's opening my mail and just forced a refund in my face and kicked me out! That's great business ethics!? read more

Jack London Mail - I just had the owner of jacklondon mail threaten me. Here's his message to me after I asked for his help to catch the person. - Notaries Near Me - Oakland, California

I am a frequent customer of Jack London mail. I use this service to ship very fragile and valuable items, and I know I can always trust them to take the utmost care with my items. I truly have never seen such careful and meticulous wrapping and packaging! Shipments are always on time, in perfect condition, and beautifully packaged. Thank you so much, and you have a customer for life! read more

I stopped in to drop off a UPS return, only to find out that they don't do that. She could have just sent me on my way... That is not what happened. There was a UPS truck out front and, 8.5x11 printout in hand, she helped me box it up fast and I caught the truck. Thank you!!! read more

I am so glad Jack London mail is on my hood. They've made my life a lot easier. They are always very helpful and nice. They don't accept UPS drop offs, but they do accept USPS drop offs, which is great. read more

I love this place. It's literally a block and a half away from me and they're really friendly and quick. I enjoy visiting every time

If you have FedEx boxes in your display window along with other FedEx paraphernalia people are are led to believe you have those items in the store at the customers disposal and that as a FedEx source you will get important packages to their destination on time. They do not. This place is not a reliable source to make sure your package is delivered nor does it have any items in it's display window available for you to use. If you plan on using this place to ship your packages, think again. This is not the best place. read more

I've now used Jack London Mail twice to pick up auction winnings nearby, pack them up, and ship them to me. Each time, the service has been outstanding. Great communication, reasonable pricing, fantastic attention to the care and protection of my auction winnings. I can't recommend them any higher -- this crew is fantastic. I hope I win more items just so I can have them ship them off to me! read more

Jack London Mail has been a godsend during the pandemic. My company has been using their excellent services for close to 2 years now (get a business account for small discount!) and ship almost daily via their Fedex/USPS/DHL options. Nhat, Carmen, and the rest of the team are always super helpful, speedy, and thoughtful. They also have mailbox services and Fedex/USPS dropoffs. Support this local business! read more

This has to be one of the best mailing places I had been in awhile. Even though it was my first time here, I loved the service! The staff member that helped me was friendly and courteous. She helped me ship out my package, including the mailing envelope at no cost. I already had the shipping label included for the package. The whole service was quick and efficient. I would come here again for all my mailing services. It's also like a 3 min walk from my place, which is perfect for me. read more

The best. Have used them for 13 PLUS years. Try them, they do not disappoint. Great prices on rentals for boxes, Great prices on shipment and packages. I believe they still have a Notary service as well. read more

Love this place. The owner is cool. The ladies who who hold down the spot are efficient and amazing.

It's close by in the neighborhood, but my package got stolen from this location. They have a dropoff area that's right by the door and not watched very well, and they discourage giving receipts. "Oh, it's fine, you can leave it right here." ... B.S. The package I dropped off was a return of an expensive item and I'm kicking myself for dropping off a return there because now I've lost several hundreds of dollars from a refund with no receipt or recourse. This place is perfect for thieves or if you want your packages stolen. I won't be coming here again. :( read more

Love this place! People are friendly enough, cost is competitive, in/out fast. Plus at this point, they feel like neighborhood family!

very good ! highly recommend! very fast response and shipped out the third day , very efficient!

Absolutely love this place. I have used them for my mailbox service, packaging, and sending. They are always on top of the job and go the extra mile to make sure your packages are sent in the most efficient and inexpensive way possible. I live between continents, and Jack London Mail helps me stay connected when I have to resort to snail mail. When I call in, Carmen is always willing to filter out the BS junk mail, list off the important letters, and box it all up cheap and easy to where ever I happen to be in the world. Big shout out to Carmen for being so professional. "Jack London Mail, You complete me!" Lmao.... read more

I love this place. Super friendly and efficient staffs. This is the only place in Oakland that I can trust with my mails and packages.

This is a great place if they sell what you are looking for. However, NEVER EVER go in there asking a question. Not only will the rude ass clerk snub you because she doesn't have the answer to your question, but she will then go on to give you excuses to justify her incompetence. I've been here on several occasions because I work down the street. I've even been snapped on because SHE didn't know what a USPS Tyvek envelope was. I work in shipping so it was expected that I would be more knowledgeable than she but the fact that I catch her shitty attitude every time she's asked a question she can't answer makes me apprehensive about coming here. read more

We've been going here for a couple of years now, using their computer to print and scan documents, getting paperwork notarized close to home, and we've now had a mailbox for a couple of months. It seems like mailing a package from here is more expensive than other places, but they're always pretty quick and it gets the job done; I do this so infrequently that it's definitely a matter of convenience over cost! Their mailbox setup seems reasonably priicef and they offer lots of forwarding options, as well as after-hours key fob access. They've recently changes owners, but things seem to be running smoothly! If anything, their notary seems to be there more often, which works for me! read more

I have personal and business mail at Jack london mail. With all the package pirates in my neighborhood, I get a lot of packages here-- never had a problem. Also they provide other mailing services read more

Great neighborhood stop! The owner is great, her selection of cards and shipping options is fun, and you get to meet nice people if there is a line. I love being able to just walk over to JL Mail! It saves a trip to the post office! read more

Here's the thing: we are right across the street and I'm a new admin person (we let our admin go and my accountant self balks at doing this stuff). Kandice and anyone that has worked here since Kandice took over has done nothing but go above and beyond in the customer service department. Example 1: Fedex-ing two large shipments for a trade show. Our prior admin person kept EVERYTHING, so now all of our shipping forms, etc are super old and out of date. Kandice walked me through everything, and then even brought over, TO OUR OFFICE, backup copies for the next time we needed to ship the same kind of package. I mean, who does that anymore? AMAZING! Example 2: Fedex-ing a very important international package last minute. Guy working in there (sorry, it was rude of me to not get your name), but WAITED for me to fill out the entire form so that we could submit our bid last minute to a prospective new client. Maybe that's not impressive, but us, it meant that we didn't have to schlep downtown and deal with other people. I've got to come in here when our company decides to actually SPEND MONEY. They sell greeting cards too, which I will definitely be getting only from them. Keep on doing what you're doing! read more

The Jack London Team Rocks!!! After speaking to multiple packing stores in the area I was blown away by the courteous professional staff of this location. They were able to offer me a custom solution to my problem that no one else was flexible enough to offer. I was super impressed and everything went well from the first phone conversation to the mailing of my parcel. I can whole heartedly recommend this business to anybody that is looking for 1st Class service!! Way to go!! Aloha & Mahalo from sunny Honolulu Andres read more

I had to head to a FedEx store, so looked this one up online and saw it was open til 6pm... Raced on over and made it at about 6:02pm and they were still there. The employee in the store was super helpful, even though I was in a rush. l've only gone once, but I'll use it again next time I have a package to ship! I'm used to SF meters, but they actually had plenty of free parking in front of the store. read more

What a great place, for UPS, Fed X, packing and shipping, a mailbox, and a great location near Amtrak at Jack London Square. This will become my new location for meeting my office needs. Great Service. New Ownership read more

I go here for all my notarized mail and big packages. The employees are friendly, but not too over the top - bottom line, they just know their mail, and get the job done for you. So glad that this place exists in JLS! read more

Every time I've been to this place, the man who works at the counter is extremely rude. I have been here multiple times, and each time he is worse. Full disclaimer: I only use this location to drop off packages to FedEx and I understand they don't get paid for this. However, if you advertise that you ship FedEx at least be nice to the people patronizing your store! I asked the man a simple question about Saturday shipping -- he handed me the phone and said "Why don't you call 1800FEDEX -- I'm not here to answer your questions." Um...seriously? The exchange went on and continued to go downhill, but it annoys me to even think about repeating it. Awful, awful, awful. read more

Convenient and friendly- YES! There is a surcharge for USPS Flat Rate Shipping. I was shocked it was almost double the Post Office rate. There was a long explanation that blamed the post office for this charge and something about them being an approved vendor... but it seemed implausible, felt disingenuous. It's more likely because they are vendor they have been charged by the post office and are applying that charge to me. That said I should have printed the shipping label online and dropped it in the mail box at work. I'll do that next time and pay what is fair. Flat Rate means flat rate period. Beyond their questionable policies the service is warm and California friendly. read more
