Parking can be a challenge when the shopping center is packed. I have either parked in the adjacent parking spaces and walked across or I have circled around and caught one in the front on my lazy days. This post office is small, and in the center of the full-length shopping center, but it is definitely in the cut. In fact, if you are distracted you may overlook it. I like it because most days, if you are lucky, you can be in and out. On the days when it is a line, it moves fairly quickly. The line is single filed from the inside to the outside as their Covid safety precautions do not allow more than 3 in the service area at a time. There are people in the lobby preparing their packages to then get in line or drop off. There is no regulation on how many people that can be in the lobby area. Once you get to the desk in the service area, there's a clear barrier between you and the agent with hand sanitizer present. There is a self-service kiosk here which I've tried to operate multiple times, but I just cannot get it or it does not service my needs. I wish there were more self service options to alleviate the need to stand in line. The customer service is pretty decent here as well. The agents will make you return to the lobby from the service area if your package is not completely ready for shipment. I suppose this is for safety. They do provide you with tape for your package which is extremely helpful. If you have questions, someone will step out to help you. There has been times when there has been only one person working the desk and the line has moved very slow. I either wait patiently or leave and return another time. This is definitely a time of challenge for us all during this pandemic time, so when you take that into consideration, this location is doing pretty good.

This is a pretty bad post office, which is disappointing because considering its location, size,…read moreand historical significance, it should theoretically serve as the model for all the post offices in the metropolitan area. I've come here many times to try and buy stamps, and I don't think there's been one (1) time where they've had a full sheet of stamps for me to buy. They either have a half-sheet, 2-3 individual stamps, or direct me to use the kiosk, which I don't like doing. Second, a lot of the times when I try to use the drive-up blue collection box, it's stuffed full to the point of being impossible to even put mail into it. Finally, and perhaps most frustratingly, I had to mail something off after work one day, and dropped it in the outside blue box at 4:58 p.m., just in time for them to come out and collect it. Well, because it was an important piece of mail, I waited in my car for about thirty (30) minutes to make sure that they were going to collect it, and nobody ever came out to pick it up. So, as a result, it's going to look like I did not mail it out in time, when in reality, I rushed to the post office to make sure I got it off in time. The only thing that saves this office from a one-star review is that as a big fan of both minimalist and brutalist architecture, I love the aesthetic of the building. At first glance, it looks kind of ugly, but it gradually grows on you, and has become a signature part of the city's skyline. I just wish that I could say the same about the quality of service. While this post office might be the most accessible to most people, I would try to find a different location, even if it's a little less convenient, if you're able.

While we were up the street from the post office, I figured I would go ahead and mail off the gift. Never been to this location, so I was thinking maybe the line wasn't long. I was wrong. Had me wondering if people sending off Christmas gifts already! I have to say even though it was full, the line moved pretty fast. As for the customer service, one of the employees who assisted me was rude. I said good morning and all I got was a stare and silence! I am assuming she was in a mood, so all I needed her to do was ship my package:) The place was functional, clean and organized from what I saw. Again, I am not a regular customer there, so I can't speak any further. Long story short, I completed my task, and I was on my way!

I'm not sure why there's a 2-hour difference between the two, when they're physically about 20 feet away from each other. Also, you have to take your packages to the counter to have them mailed, but I've never gone and not had to wait in an extremely long line to have this done. While many of these issues aren't unique to this specific location, they do seem to be noticeably worse here. As such, if you need to do anything other than drop mail in the inside dropbox, I'd recommend taking a few more minutes to go to another post office instead.

I had to get up and run to the door to call to her that I had mail for her on the mail box, her response was, oh I'll come back and get it. What is the post office in Five Points doing, besides not their jobs. I live in the Rosewood area of Columbia and have had days where the mail was delivered at 8 pm or not at all, packages just thrown up on the porch. WOW, and they tell use they are great at what they do, not out of Five Points. I know they don't care, they are a protected class. The one thing congress needs to do is bid out our postal service, fire everyone that works for them and not allow a commercial contractor to hire them for postal service. Want to save money, close the US Post Office and replace it with an efficient company that has real standards.

I probably won't come back here again unless I absolutely have to. I love the location though! Hate that it is shared with multiple other stores.
