The people at the UPS store are always so helpful and friendly! I'm so thankful they are in our neighborhood!

Friendly and attentive staff who are always there to help. Have been a customer for many years now

I usually come here because it's close to home, but after being turned away at the San Carlos location for needing two pieces of tape, I'm a customer here for life. As a business owner, I believe in rewarding the right businesses rather than bashing the bad ones. The team here--specifically Saeed--is incredible. They never hassle you, they have a great attitude, and they get you in and out fast. Thank you for not denying paying clients over a piece of tape. Keep up the great work! read more

I came to this UPS Store for a drop-off and arrived shortly after 10:00 AM, which is the posted opening time on the door. Unfortunately, the store was still closed and unattended at 10:30 AM, with no note or explanation posted. This was frustrating, especially since customers rely on the posted hours to plan their day. If the store is opening late, there should at least be a sign on the door or an update to the hours to avoid wasting people's time.I hope management addresses this and improves communication around opening times. read more

The UPS Store - People waiting outside waiting for them to open - Shipping Centers Near Me - Foster City, California

Went in for live scan service. The gentleman who helped me was professional, helpful, and very patient. He was also clearly a very hard worker- juggling a lot with a calm demeanor. Great experience. read more

A busy store because they do everything you'd expect. Amazon returns are quick. The staff has pretty constant turnover and no one there seems like they're having a very good day but they're helpful and you're in and out in a hurry. My pet peeve is the inconsiderate employees take the parking at the curb in front of the business so if you've got packages and children you're left to cross traffic. read more

The UPS Store - Employees park right in front with a huge, usually busy parking lot. - Shipping Centers Near Me - Foster City, California

Disappointed. I come in 30+ minutes before closing to get an item to be packaged and shipped. The male staffer was not willing to help. The offered to come in the morning. Fortunately, I was not in desperate need to ship the item. If you REALLY need to use their service, I guess you can but personally I would pass on this location. read more

I had 2 of the same items to return to Amazon. I found out from Kevin at UPS, Amazon return code only provides one shipping label. He was kind enough to do all the communications with Amazon, which took about 30 minutes! Kevin provided excellent customer service! You don't find that level of service in many places anymore. read more

Went in to drop off an Amazon return. Good and friendly service. The person knew exactly what to do and I was in and out of there in no time. Better than expected and also no problem with parking. read more

Very helpful staff, got my document notarized in no time. Just call and find out the hours if notary service is needed.

Generally never had much of any issue with them, and I shipped out quite a lot of stuff regularly at times. Staff is nice and helpful. One star deducted more for UPS policies and rules than anything specific to the site... for one, I learned to never trust the rates UPS quotes online... if you take it to the shop they'll always charge you... surprise: more! I'm saying this because I have not made the same experience with FedEx. And two, for this branch, if your parcel is above a certain value (don't remember exactly - $1500 or so?) and you try to buy the label and ship there - they'll refuse and you have to trek up to UPS in SSF. Note that if you buy the label elsewhere, eg through ebay, you can ship positively any value and drop it off with them. Doesn't sound like UPS trusts their own franchises? read more

Came in on a Saturday and there was only one person and she was super busy. Over 7 people in line. yet she was very kind and helpful. Her name is Shmik and she was able to help me so kindly and extremely efficiently.. I normally don't go on yelp, but she was so kind and It's really hard to find good customer service and made me feel welcomed and valued as a customer. She's the best read more

The UPS Store - Shipping Centers Near Me - Foster City, California

Easy place to find, park, and drop off a package (it was an Amazon return). No lines inside, the place seemed clean & organized. The service person was efficient & cordial. I walked in, she asked me to scan the package, I dropped it off, she processed it, and I was on my way. Couldn't ask for more. When I tried to do this at another UPS location, I found it hard to park, I had to wait in line, and there was a little bit of confusion as to what I needed to do. Not here, I was in & out in 10 seconds, and I will always bring my UPS packages here. Easy peasy! read more

This review is long overdue. I'm a frequent customer at this store, usually stopping in weekly to mail shipments, use the print services, or see the notary. Saaed is always incredibly helpful and friendly. He's excellent at multitasking, and his work ethic truly stands out. For years, I assumed he was the owner--only recently did I learn he's an employee. As a small business owner myself, I truly appreciate and admire the level of dedication he brings to his work. read more

Loly was extremely helpful and answered all my questions! Very friendly staff that helped me quickly and efficiently

This is such a gem of Foster City. Beautiful location and the service is amazing. Everytime I need to send something that my daughter had forgotten or left behind. I can always count on Saeed to help deliver the goods for the last five years. During COVID when life was so complicated and confusing. Saeed has safe and reliable delivery from start to finish. The store has all your needs and with a friendly staff. The value of customer service and support is a must for your business or personal life needs. I've done notary services, over night delivery, mailing supplies ie. envelopes, packaging tape, printing services and boxes. They even have updated machines for you to scan and drop off packages. Great value for your dollar to have this store in its convenient location. Thank you Saeed for being there for me and my family's needs. So grateful to have you in our neighborhood! read more

This is the best store in the area. Shout out to evinle she was so patient and understanding as I had come in with my elderly parents to get passport photos and the requirements were quite stringent. Really appreciate this store and evinle. read more

Great location, plenty of parking Quick service, professional, knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Saeed did an excellent job assisting me with Live Scan fingerprints. He was professional, diligent, efficient and very responsive to my questions. I would highly recommend using Saeed's help for your finger printing needs. read more

The service I got from Saeed today was really amazing. He was so calm and composed, as well as knowledgeable with my questions and concerns. I just want to thank Saeed again for all his help today and I will be coming back to this store for my package needs! read more

they would charge $4 for printing Amazon return label, never had this problem with other stores.

This store is my office away from my office... Saeed is fantastic, if you need printing, coping, fax service or supplies, he's your man- thank you for always exceeding my expectations read more

Saeed is very helpful and knowledgeable at his work. Every time I go in to the stores he greets with a warm welcome and manages the queue very well even if it gets busy at the stores during the weekend. Thank you Saeed for your excellent customer service. read more

The service was excellent . I walked into the store and there were 4 people ahead of me. I thought for sure it would be 1/2 hour or more. Evelyn helped all of them within 7 minutes. She shipped , pulled , taped faster than anyone I've seen. I asked her her name and told her I've never seen service this good. She smiled and told me her name. I waited less than 8 minutes and my shipments were done and I left with the the receipt in hand. Thank you Evelyn for doing such a fantastic job . read more

The people here are fast, friendly and efficient especially Ledy. If you're in need of an UPS store come to this one.

Schruit was incredibly helpful and patient in assisting me. She is a very nice lady and made my experience much more pleasant. Thank you, Schruit! read more

I used UPS to send a passport to oversea to get a visa processed. The person delivering my envelope left an "attempted delivery" note on the door of the visa processing center. That day I got an email saying my package was delivered. Fast forward 3 weeks, I find out my package was held in a facility waiting to be picked up by the visa center and they never showed. This led to my package being delivered back to San Mateo. This really is a problem with A. the visa center not being responsive B. the UPS online portal giving inaccurate updates via email. I contacted the UPS customer helpline and they suggested I go to my local USP store. While my problems were not a fault of the San Mateo UPS store, the manager patiently listened to my concerns and refunded the cost of my delivery. This UPS store will not get reimbursed from UPS corporate, but the manager went above and beyond to help me out. Originally I went into the situation very skeptical of how I would be helped, but I was impressed by how them dealt with my problem and I really appreciate it! read more

The owner was working at the time and I quoted her a price given by her employee. She said it's not that rate but I will honor it. She was pleasant about it. That's why I will go back in the future. Thank you again! read more

Worst customer service today. I've been coming to this store for years and service has usually been good if not great. Today however I needed to get a livescan fingerprint for work. I know the owner does it. When I walked in he said "I can't do it right now I'm on my lunch break." I asked him when he would be free. He said "Maybe in an hour." Maybe? He said "Depends on how long I take for lunch." Asked him if it would be easier to set up an appointment for later in the week? His reply "I don't do appointments. You'll just have to come by and see if I'm available." No thanks. With service like that I'm never coming back to this store. Horrible, rude interaction. read more

I went in to make copies with my thumb drive. but couldn't figure out the copying machine Ms. S walked over and assisted me and even made copies for me! Excellent service! read more

The workers here are super nice! In the past two weeks I've needed to mail some packages and do several live scan fingerprintings for my new job. It's not a fast process but the workers get it done and are very friendly. Whatever you need, they'll take care of it! If possible come in the morning. It gets pretty busy around 3PM. read more

I always got to this location and always had good experience. Today went to return big item to Amazon and Saeed was real gentlemen helped me with my heavy box. Thank you Saeed and UPS. read more

The lady that works here is so grouchy all the time. She's never friendly like she hates her life. Lacks customer service etiquette. I gave this place a lot of chances, but from now on I'm just gonna go to Marlin cove location Where people are happy to see you. read more

Evelyn is the nicest worker. Very helpful, always very polite and nice. Also very efficient, hopefully she stays there for a while because she's a really good worker. She is the best :) read more

I had to return a package for a refund, and it being of high value and fragile, knew I needed some help managing the shipment. The staff went above and beyond to help me! They packed my item better than I could have ever tried on my own, consulted me in my shipping options, and helped me feel fully confident that my package would be well cared for (and it was)! Oh, and they were friendly throughout the entire process. This was hands down the BEST UPS store, even out of any shipping store, experience I have had. read more

In between addresses so I opted for " pick up" option to this store. My package was given to a wrong customer. Thank you for letting me came back twice and still never gotten the item I purchased. read more

AVOID/BEWARE: "LOST" PACKAGES. Been coming here for years without issue, but never again. Dropped off 3 pairs of shoes and got a receipt acknowledging that they received all of them. They were never scanned again, i.e., they never made it on a truck. Filed a claim online/over the phone and after an investigation they were deemed to be unrecoverable. Luckily 2 were returns so I wasn't liable and the merchant still refunded me. The last pair I sold on a marketplace and used their prepaid shipping label, so when UPS allegedly cut a reimbursement check it was sent to the marketplace and not me. Despite numerous calls to both company's customer service I never received reimbursement and obviously will never get my shoes back. Will be going to the UPS on either Bovet Rd, 41st or 2nd now exclusively. read more

I visited the UPS store in Foster City to print out 11 x 17 color prints of my pdf floor plans for my work as an architect. Earlier in the day I had tried to print the same floor plans at the Fedex store in San Mateo and was dissatisfied with the results. The colors were faint and the resolution was poor. After a few unsuccessful attempts at printing the images at the UPS store, the clerk Evelyn came to assist me. Evelyn came through for me and printed clear, colorful print outs!!! Thank you Evelyn!!! From now on when I need color prints, my go-to will be the UPS store in Foster City! read more

Arrived today at one pm for an appointment for notary service scheduled on line through the UPs store website for which I received a confirmation email. Not particularly polite or concerned young woman behind counter informed me the person I needed had just gone to lunch and I'd have to come back in an hour. When I informed her I had an appointment she just said "o well, come back in an hour". Poor choice of business practices as there are three other UPS stores within a five minute drive and the people at the Foster City Boulevard store are very polite. I'll be taking my business there in future read more

Terrible customer service! Can't believe they charge you $1.00 for using their tape to seal a 2X6 box. Will never came back to this place read more
