I work hand in hand with the Retail Shippers Associates and I get paid to visit all types of shipping stores and review them internally. Every once in a while a shipping store blows my mind with how great it is. This was one of those times. This Pak Mail store is a standout in customer service and amenities. From all of my packing needs and they even had very funny greeting cards to send along with the gift I was sending. I bought a few extras for myself. I actually visited this store twice within a week while I was on vacation with my wife in Tucson. Robert was unbelievably friendly and helpful the first time. And on my second visit, he remembered my name. He must be the owner, because he took unbelievable pride in what he did. There was another man there too. His name was Brian, I believe. I observed him helping a woman who had a hundred questions -- he answered each one as though it was the first question she had asked. I'm a nice guy and I would have had a hard time with her. Kudos to Brian for being such a nice guy. If Brian or Robert don't own this store, they should each own their own. I give them the highest marks. A true gem in the business of shipping stores. read more

Recently moved from Tucson to the east coast- Worked with the PakMail team to palletize for the move- They were great! We sold our furnished house and only needed to move household goods- We didn't require a uhaul- which would have been quite costly for rental, gas- not to mention dangerous as the drive entailed strong winds, rain, snow and hauling at high speed with 18 wheelers- We didn't require a pod- which also would have added up financially- Pallets allow you to ship roughly a 4x7 ft amount of goods- We mocked up the dimensions at home- and used our large tupperware storage bins from the garage- Brian, Robert and Julio were all great to work with- timely with response- They provided the expertise and instruction that we needed to make it feasible. They palletized the goods once we got them to the warehouse. They can pick everything up from you if you need to have it picked up at your house- They were trustworthy- and I was happy to support their business It was definitely the most affordable, efficient, effective and safe way to move household goods across the country- Thanks PakMail! read more

I would like to say that while visiting Tucson AZ I had a lot of items to ship back to NYS desk, tables, lamps, chest, etc. My husband found Pak Mail and called. They were very nice and gave us a great deal, explained how the process works. They came to my grandparents home and picked up the items. They packaged all items together. When they arrived in NYS (New York State), in a timely manner, they were in contact all the way through. The items arrived and when I opened the boxes everything was in one piece, packaged and wrapped separately, they did a great job. Nothing was broke, cracked or missing. My items are memories from my grandparents and I was happy that everything arrived together and in one piece. I call Robert who we were dealing with and extended my gratitude for the shipment process. Thanks again! I would use them when I needed to ship something from Arizona. I also extended my gratitude to family members who said that they would keep Pak Mail in mind when shipping items. read more

I used Pak Mail to ship some furniture and other small goods. They were amazing - so customer oriented and friendly. They packaged the items extremely well...I was impressed. There was just one glitch with the freight company ABF. There was some misunderstanding between Pak Mail and ABF. ABF wasn't very nice about it even though Pak Mail handled it quickly. ABF's people were extremely good (customer rep and delivery man) however their delivery rules and administration are not customer friendly. They only deliver to certain areas on certain days and certain times. Because of the misunderstanding they also sent some not so nice letters to me threatening to start charging for storage even though they never notified anyone (me or Pak Mail) that there was a problem. So Pak Mail - kudos, but ABF thumbs down for their lack of customer service rules and administration. read more

In late 2022 we decided to sell our house in Tucson Arizona and move to Annapolis Maryland to be closer to him and his family. We had a large collection of family heirlooms coming to us from our grandparents. This included two large wooden chests. One came from Sweden from our paternal grandfather. The other came from Pennsylvania from our maternal Grandfather. Each chest was heavy and too large to fit in our car. Both chests were packed with other family items. PaK Mail came to the house with a truck to pick up the chests. They wrapped to protect them and family members in New Orleans and Milledgeville Georgia. Everything arrived in good condition. The chests and the items inside were very much appreciated by all the family members. Pak Mail staff did a wonderful job shipping everything to our extended family members. read more

I was passing through Tucson on my way to Phoenix and I popped in and asked if they had postcards and was treated so well I felt bad that all I was buying was a postcard. While I was browsing (I had to find just the right one for my daughter, she gets one from all over you see). The whole time, the young man that was working there was so friendly to everyone who came in the door (at least three people did, I was being particular). It was a lot of fun banter and niceties. Felt kinda like I was in an episode of The Andy Griffith show and made me wish there was a spot like this back home. I know I just bought a postcard but I wont forget the way it felt less like a Pak Mail and more like the lone old time small-town post offices you see in the movies where people hang out and everyone knows each other. read more

Robert was so helpful and friendly. I had a large piece of framed art, and Robert & PakMail just went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. They were generous with both materials and time, coordinating pickup and shipping for me. My item was packed with great care and arrived in NYC safe & sound. (And sooner than expected! Although, I don't know who gets the credit for that part.) I would absolutely use them again and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone for top-notch shipping services out of Tucson. I researched a lot before calling them, read lots of reviews, etc. I'm convinced I made the right choice--they really take pride in their work, and I couldn't be happier with them. read more

I left and entire drawer fo clothing in my hotel room-I called the hotel several hours later and then was directed to work with Pak Mail as that is who they contracted with for items left behind. Pak Mail went to hotel and obtained my belongings, contacted me several times re status of my shipment, the guy at Pak Mail told me he would do his best to squeeze my items into smallest box possible to keep my costs lower. I received ALL my items packed tightly together in a smaller box than I was quoted and thus my cost ended up even lower than I thought it was going to be. Pak Mail took their time in packing as everything was so neatly folded and everything was in perfect shape. I am so appreciative !!!! read more

We had a difficult packing problem at a remote site. Other packing companies either refused to even consider it, or quoted exorbitant rates for the job. But Robert and his crew drove out an hour from Tucson, packed our large but delicate equipment expertly, and handled getting it shipped cross-country at a rate that was a fraction of any other company's quote. Can't say enough about how relieved I was to find a guy like Robert and a company like Pak Mail Tucson that is honest, hard-working, and not afraid of a packing and shipping challenge. They'll be my first call for any future packing and shipping needs in the southern Arizona area, and they should be your first call, too! read more

Tucson, AZ - I have used Pak Mail several times to pack and ship fine art work to different parts of the country. Client feedback has let me know that all arrived safely and was packed beautifully. Recently I had to coordinate the packing and shipment of fine art while I was 1000 miles away. Once the framed paintings were delivered to Pak Mail by a great neighbor, I was able to work via phone and email to coordinate final packing and shipping detaiLes. Then invoices were sent to me via email so I could then submit them to the client for reimbursement. What a team. Thank you!! Couldn't have put that together at such a distance without such professional support!!! read more

Man i dont know who this dragon lady is,,all i know is i trusted them to ship my auction wins across the country safely. The lady i talked to was a little on the tough side,But she has to be with all the whining,and crying, From peeps who think its a bunch of stamps on the box and off it gos. They have a reputation to uphold. The right way to do a job,is to give it to somebody who knows how to do the job. And this is where you do that. THANK YOU CARL VERMONT VINTAGE read more

I am an exhibiting photographer who just moved to Tucson. All of my framed imagery is valuable, and expansive. Recently, I was presented with the requirement to get a 40" x 60" piece of framed artwork, with museum glass, to a client on the East coast. The collectors of my imagery are discriminating and simply EXPECT the best with NO hassle to them. Robert and the PAK MAIL team were the professional answer, handling every detail from pick-up, crating, shipping and 'white glove' delivery on the receiving end. My client took the time to email me and say thank-you for the professional treatment. read more

I no longer darken the door of my local U.S. Post Office or stationer, because I have Pak Mail. The friendly, efficient staff take care of all my shipping needs, and the selection of greeting cards for all occasions, from Christmas to Birthdays to Get Well To Sympathy, is simply the best. I even get appreciative comments from card recipients of how much the card I sent helped them! I have also used their fax and document shredding services, because they make my life a lot simpler. If you haven't discovered this particular Pak Mail outlet, you're missing a great experience! read more

Thought I would avoid Post Office lines at Holiday time to ship 2 packages. Not worth the "convenience fees". One box weighing less than 10lbs, containing $12 in gift.. cost me $30 to send!!! Cost of shipping was $20 and charged $12 for the box when there were boxes for sale there (that my items would have fit in with room to spare) for $6 & $7. Why I was charged $12 for a box I dont know?? I feel taken advantage of. But I do know I will NEVER return there. Will go to Post Office where I know exactly what I will pay, all shipping/boxes are clearly labeled. read more

Dodie at Pakmail is amazing! Always very helpful and makes my visit easy and fast everytime by providing the best service with the best rate for my needs. She also has a great sense of humor and wonderful attitude! I will drive the extra distance just to deal with her specifically because it's guaranteed that she will provide excellent service. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner today and it was refreshing to meet an owner that takes pride in his employee's customer service skills & he was personable and down to earth. Thanks Pakmail! read more

Pak Mail on Oracle shipped an antique bookcase from Tucson to Seattle for me. The bookcase has double doors on the front with plain glass panels and, at the top of the doors, inset panels of leaded glass. Pak Mail did a terrific job crating, shipping and delivering. It arrived in perfect condition, exactly when they said it would. I had gotten an estimate from them based on just a photo and my description. The bookcase turned out to be heavier than they had anticipated but they honored the estimate. First rate job all around. read more

We live in Tucson for 7-8 months in the winter. We do a lot of online shopping. This means returns at times . We also send things back and forth to our East Coast place. All our Snowbird friends do as well. PakMail has everything for us in one location. They have regular US post office shipping, but also UPS/Fedex and DHL. All in one place. Robert and Dodie always work out the best price and timing for me and all my family and friends. It's one-stop SHIPPING with great people and great service. Would highly recommend to all! read more
