Encino location has a small parking lot but it's equivalent to the size of the store. They have lock boxes which is always plus. Well, when we arrived we had some things that needed help with. Debbie who was available when it was our turn was absolutely AMAZING. She literally took care of us and then some. For someone who's in a business that has to deal with people one on one constantly regardless the mood of the customers. She was top notch. We had some question regarding mail which she totally answered and she even suggested some things to do instead. Plus I had a package that needed to be mail to the uk. Wasn't sure if I was going to but wanted to see what the price for international shipping would be. She took amazing care of us and explained everything nicely and professionally. Employees like her should receive a raise big time. Her energy shine with that amazing smile and professionalism. There was no attitude or self entitlement with her. She was there to do her job and help others. That's exactly what she did and then some. I did end up mailing the package which the price was steep but expected. Also the question we had was answered perfectly and professionally. Sometime the smaller stores tends to be the better option.

Outmoded, tragic sterile places where you are forced to stand in ridiculous lines because they are so underemployed. And now you cannot even mail something to another country without paying a fortune. I was trying to send a 56 page book in a flat envelope to Sri Lanka. The value of the book is $23 max. Postage would've been $38 minimum. Epic fail. I remember the post offices in South Africa and in France , are these lovely colorful bright and shiny places that resemble stationery and paper stores where you can buy gifts and snacks and have an all round pleasurable experience before you mail your goodies off. America, do something about your post offices . It is a darn shame!

Dont get me wrong they are very nice and helpful, but man can they talk. One of the ladies working there today was showing stamps to a guy even though he already purchased all the stamps he needed. She was talking about the history and so on about the stamps, which I can appreciate but the line was like 7 -10ppl deep. Time to get the line moving, not share ideas and thoughts about stamps and their beauty. The building looks like it was redone, but the inside is still extremely dated. Parking is tough and the lot is tight. Overall, its a post office and I do not even know why I put this on Yelp. :o

The address for this location is 15701 Sherman Way. Van Nuys, CA 91409. Your box number is your unit number. They are able to accept deliveries from UPS and other carriers that previously would not deliver to a PO Box. For the PO Box section, they have extended hours up until 8 PM Monday through Sunday. This is a lot more versatility than before. I had a choice of going with this location or the UPS store and I chose this location because it's closer to the business that I'm starting. Prices are comparable with USPS being just a little cheaper. I think I can easily recommend this location. Edit is still a post office with all the postal services. This location even offers passport services.

They could be afflicted but different offices. Main office was schedule for open hours at 8:30am. I assumed they were both the same but when I arrived around 9:15, there was no one on site. You could hear people in the back but no way of getting a hold of someone. Of course I finally saw a sign saying that mail pick up started at 10am. Even though they're different offices, I assumed opening time was the same. Guess i assumed wrong. Oh well, guess it'll have to be next time. But trying to get a hold of someone was a bitch.

I went in to mail a package during a slow time. I greeted and spoke to her - as I greet and speak to everyone- with positivity, kindness, and consideration; however, she was dismissiveness, bitter, and rushed (even though there was no line). It's possible she has worked there for a long time, felt burnt out, and or was having a bad day, but when I saw her being very kind to an older gentlemen next to me - who she seemed to know and or who supposedly comes in often - it became clear she was conditionally nice to him and for whatever reason not to me. Her demeanor was a stain on the environment and my experience. I would encourage the Tarzana Post Office Management to revisit her employment status. In a society where there's a lack of kindness and decency, genuine people are hard to come by; when genuine people themselves are treated with disrespect and unkindness, action then needs to be taken, otherwise the company culture suffers for the other employees and the customers they serve, like me. For those living/visiting the Tarzana/Encino areas, I strongly advise driving further elsewhere to another post office if you want better service - or if you want to keep your joy.

I was transferred to a supervisor who yelled at me for putting my mail on hold, and accused me of being a criminal because I didn't live there anymore and was holding the mail for the entire address, which she said is a "criminal offense" and "I'm not honoring this request". THEN SHE HUNG UP ON ME! How was I supposed to know holds were by address, instead of by name?! I was just holding it until I got a permanent address. Moving is stressful enough to be yelled at over a friggin' mail hold! I immediately called her back and asked her why she abruptly hung up, and she changed her tone and said she didn't know I had anything else to say. Really? How about asking, like you're supposed to, and stop being a drama queen by implying that someone is a criminal for putting THEIR mail on hold! I asked her if I needed to do anything else, and she said no she already cancelled the hold request and I should forward my mail. She gave me a general delivery address (which I had no idea existed) to forward my mail to until I got a permanent address. Which is what she should've done during the first call instead of abruptly hanging up! I return her missed call as a courtesey and she gets an attitude with me! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! USPS needs to change mail holds to be by NAME, instead of address, like a logical person would expect it to be!

The quality of service is also unpleasant, so I try to avoid this location as much as possible. Unfortunately, this is the post office that handles outgoing mail for my workplace, and sometimes packages are delayed because the staff here work very slowly. Occasionally, a package will show as arriving late at night, only to update last minute with a message saying, "It will be delivered tomorrow. Sorry for the delay." I'm not sure what needs to change for this location to start operating in a timely manner. Maybe they have to hire more people here that might help and or better management to make sure this location runs smoothly. I don't have nearly as many issues with the post office near my home. I definitely don't recommend using this location unless absolutely necessary.

Typically, I'll fill out the waybill online on DHL.com and pay for it as well online, and then drop off my documents here at this local DHL partner. They have DHL pickups scheduled for weekdays (Monday to Friday), but they don't have it on Saturdays -- which is why I only gave them a "Good" rating. Oftentimes, I don't have time to drop off documents until the weekend, and if I had known ahead of time that this location doesn't have a DHL pickup scheduled for Saturdays, I might have selected another DHL pickup location. Nevertheless, now I know. Only thing is that my documents will now get there a couple of days later, which isn't ideal. Their staff provided adequate service, however, there isn't any easy way for me to know this salient item.
