US Post Office

Just like Marks photo from 4 years ago… Things haven’t changed here. Myself and seven other customers sit in line while the workers take their time. I’ll find somewhere else to go from now on.

I’ve read other people’s reviews and maybe I just love the post office or something because I actually enjoy this location and use it all the time.
It is located in a strip mall type of situation but it’s not hard to find. It’s off of barry road and near the Hobby Lobby. It has a self serve kiosk, which is pretty convenient, and nice staff for when you don’t use self serve. I’ve never waited long or had a disappointing experience, so I’ll keep coming back. It definitely makes sending things a little easier!

Like Brandi, I like the self serve station and use it a lot and as Mark W noted, it’s not easy to find. Also, the drop off box is on the wrong side of the street so you either have to park to use it or chance driving in the wrong direction in the parking lot.
Not a bad location since it’s close to Starbucks and the Dollar Tree as well as around the corner from Walmart. But often they are out of the flat rate packages or other supplies and the machine sometimes is not working. A cool trick is to type in that you don’t know the zip code and the machine will print the address — sans name — directly onto the shipping label. It takes an extra second but looks better and is definitely more legible than my handwriting with a Sharpie.
Every time I’ve gone to the window the service has been slow because it seems to be the Post Office people come to when they have bizarre issues, problems, or concerns. Also, they process passports, but can only take so many applications in one day. This seems to be a constant source of problems for people and slows the customer service line down even more. For a little drama and theater when you have the time, but I feel sorry for the clerks who have to listen to it and take the abuse. As with the guy who wanted to know how he could get a read confirmation on his package… no matter how many times the clerk explained it to him, he just wasn’t satisfied, and what should have been my ten minute purchase was more like thirty. The next time I went later and used the machine.

This little Post Office branch is a little hard to find at first, but its in the strip mall almost all the way to the left (closer to the Ford Dealership).
The place is surprisingly busy and the automated postal center is to the left as soon as you walk in (kinda just blends in)

Honestly, there are only 2 good things about this post office (hence the 2 stars). One, it’s the nearest post office to my house, and two, usually I can get away with using the automated machine and don’t need to interact with the employees. I do love the postal machine.
Sad to say, today I had to mail a package overseas, which meant that I had to go up to the counter and actually interact (if you can call it that) with the most unhelpful, unengaging person I’ve had to deal with in awhile. She was way more concerned with what the other 2 employees were doing (whatever it was, it wasn’t helping the line of customers behind me), and pretty much just grunted at me. Seriously, is a smile and a friendly greeting too much to ask for?!
Every time I’ve had to utilize the mail counter here, there has always been a long line with only one employee handling things and the rest of the employees doing… something. Who knows what? Which is probably why the one person helping customers seemed so unpleasant.
Bleah. Thankfully I don’t foresee needing to mail anything that can’t be processed by the postal machine for awhile, as this post office makes what should be a simple chore such a pain!
