In any case, this one is even closer to work too, not to mention the lack of traffic to get there. The employees here have always been incredibly friendly and helpful. The country, small-town charm really shows. The selection of stamps is usually quite limited. Them being in a smaller town they don't get a large quantity of the new and unique ones. However, they're a full service location and I have already shipped countless packages out of here. There are even some select occasion cards available on a small rotating rack and an assortment of the flat rate envelopes and boxes. Outside, the building still has an older Post Office charm to it with brass (at least in color) letters and numbers on a red brick façade. There is parking both on the street and in a large lot adjacent. I've never not had a place to park and never had to wait more than 5 minutes in line.

They are very organized and all very knowledgeable. I've never had any issues with any of my packages and will continue to use only this post office for my shipping needs. Thanks, Hinckley USPS!

This is the local establishment for the United States Postal Service in Orrville, Ohio…read more This is a historic structure. It is a period structure from the depression times in the US. The structures were built across the country as part of the programs put in place during the FDR administration. These period buildings are very similar in shape, size and characteristics. The same style of post office is located in my hometown in Arkansas. The post office features handpainted art high on the walls of the building, as well as excellent craftsmanship and details coming from this era. I always enjoy coming to the post office here as a customer, as the team are very professional and friendly and helpful. The cost of mailing letters and packages in the US continues to be a great value and a very dependable service.

Serve and protect? NOT IN TALLMADGE! My parents were hit by a driver, who fled the scene, and was…read moreonly located because a Good Samaritan chased them down. This inept police department refused to charge the driver with a hit and run, and did not search their car, despite the driver swapping with a passenger before fleeing the scene. Multiple witnesses offered this information, yet the police did nothing. They also had no insurance, and they were allowed to leave the scene with no insurance, despite telling the police the power steering was out in their car. So this police officer put an unsafe vehicle and a known uninsured driver on the street, possibly under the influence. I've never understood this notion of "defund the police" but situations like this certainly give it perspective.

My experience w TPD at various times over a 50 year span has been great. Grew up here and moved back on very snowy December day in 1995. My wife was driving on Howe rd with our infant child and 5 year old when an inexperienced driver driving way too fast slammed the car from the rear, totally our new car and scaring the kids pretty bad. Officers were kind , helpful, professional, gave my son a teddy bear ( he named "Crash"). Since then we've had other incidents- medical emergencies, parolee in the neighborhood, accidents etc. I also interact w TPD staff periodically professionally. Always professional, efficient, polite men and women who seem to seriously " get" the idea of public service.

One afternoon I went to their main station to submit my prints as part of a background check, and was promptly greeted by an attendant at the window. The officer who ran my prints was friendly, pleasant, and cordial, all of which left me with a positive experience. Like all college police agencies, these officers are tasked with providing a safe and crime free campus for students, faculty, and anybody transiting through. Locked out of your car, no problem! Need a safety escort late at night, just ask! And if you have to report an incident, make that call. So, if you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can call them, you can always count on the men and women of the UAPD!

It is a razor's edge: You decide to do some home improvement work, add a fence, install a pool,…read moreeven add on to your home. Do you take out the permit, do everything by the book, be a good cub scout? Or do you, as most I think must do, try to cut some corners, hope the neighbors don't squeal and press on regardless, irrespective of trifling things such as building codes, and public safety, and permits? I fall into the former camp. I take out the permit. I pay the fees. I secure the insurance. I do the job right, then invite the City Inspector over for his little look-see. I do everything by the book anyway, so what's the big deal? Here's the big deal. I helped a friend who was installing a pool. He needed a little work done, nothing big, which required a permit. Fifty bucks is the minimum permit. But wait! You also have to register to be a certified contractor in the City. Cha CHING! Another one twenty-five. But wait! In order to be certified, you have to buy a surety bond for the city, that way if you totally screw up the job, the insurance pays for it. Not your liability insurance, which they also require. That surety bond? Another one twenty-five. So far, you're into your "favor" for three hundred, and you haven't even done the work. Here's my suggestion: Make the building permit FREE. Make it so that anyone can take one out, then crack down on the people who have no clue what they're doing and have no bidness doing any kind of contracting. The way it is now, only the cleanest of clean contractors even bothers to take out the permit, drop the money, have the inspection. Make the scoundrels pay.
