I couldn't find the ZERO star to give them. I recently had passport application apt with this location their behavior with us was the worst how these people can be rude to the customer? do they actually have supervisor or someone watch them ?? the two old lady and the middle age man with beard . I wish them get their retirement soon.

  • Stephen Hirjak

Obnoxious place. Rented a PO box for almost $300/year. Literally...LITERALLY 90% of my mail is misdelivered elsewhere and then arrives open, stapled, and marked misdelivered, a week later. I filed a complaint and now my mail is being returned to sender. Corrupt employees stealing their salaries!

  • Mathew Emerson

Horrible service. Especially one older white woman who works there. Employees evidently think part of their job description is being as combative and argumentative as possible, while delivering lectures on made up magical USPS rules about how my package violated sacred postal service rules.

  • haoxiang hua

The worst experience I’ve been through. As for fingerprinting, there is no info on their website that they start service at 10am. I drove their in vain. And I don’t know whoever pays them doesn’t require their staff update their open hour correctly. They’re also so rude!!! …

  • T Cochran

Avoid at all costs. There is no one capable of giving you good service here, either you’ll get someone who has no idea what they’re doing, or someone who acts like you just spit in their coffee, and you’ll most likely be leaving without whatever you came to do being finished.

  • Abraham Vu

I've been selling on eBay for over 15 years and have never lost a package but this post office has managed to lose 2 packages in the last 3 months. Do yourself a favor and go to another post office, it's not worth the headache and risk of losing your package.

  • Henry Payne

Would recommend avoiding this location for FBI fingerprinting. I was distressed by the poor service from Rhonda and the blatant inaccuracy of their process. I hope the office considers recommendations for retraining employees in this particular process.

  • Tony Da-Tiger

I love this post office and the experience is great the lady was nice no line and lots of parking! Get your passport stuff here! Send a box and they got the self service machine so if your all packed just place on the scale and follow the

  • keri Short

Horrible place to have a PO Box!! Nearly a year, and apparently my mail keeps going to the previous tenant! I got my voters ballot one month AFTER the election day. Multiple trips in to try to figure it out, but still missing important mail!!

  • Isabella Garcia

I work in Seattle (SODO) so this location is on my way home. Unfortunately every time I’ve had to send something it has been a horrible experience. The tall lady is rude and unprofessional so I try not to go to her. This evening I had to go

  • Hector Zhou

The worst postal service i have ever experienced! Lost my important documents in priority mail over a month ago, and no response to me until i came over to them in person. After i finally managed to meet the people in charge, she still lied

  • yangyang yang

I was sending a couple clothing and PPE to my sister and daughter in law since last year and I go to different locations while running my errands. And my friend suggested to go to the location in sodo because it’s closer and better parking.

  • po yo

My family shipped my package to me, they don’t even know where the package is. After a few days, I called them again and they told me that they were going to hold my package at their place. However I called them again if I can go there and

  • Sevda Yilmaz

USPS is a nightmare . Everytime I get a package I have problems . 800 number never connects to someone . 45 min wait time . I got an other package now I’m hunting the package from usps stores cause I don’t know where my package is . And of

  • Kevin Layng

Rude and disrespectful! I was trying to mail my mother's ashes and got zero empathy and maximum snark. Both clerks as well as the manager insisted I need to go on their website to order a special box for this purpose. I get home and check

  • erin

I went full "Karen" aka yelling. I was wrong. I want to thank the staff for doing their job especially A. Know that your packages won't be given to some random stranger. I just moved and my address didn't match. I became unhinged, raising

  • sabrina Juneyd

I wish i could give this place a 0 star! Ninnnio the employee that was helping us was so rude trying to rush us and make us pay $50 for fingerprinting even though not all prints were green! They helped the other customer infront of us for

  • heather peek

I have never had a problem accomplishing tasks at this post office. I love the self service machine to send packages. Staff has been fine. Sometimes there is a long wait. For everyone leaving 1 star reviews- Folks are impatient and don't

  • Salima Hafurova

Ronda (older white woman) at the front desk was particularly rude when I came in to do my FBI fingerprint background check. She wasn’t masked when I came in, no PPE (personal protective equipment), and she was very combative. When asking

  • Zachary McPherson

Came in for a passport renewal, Did the form online, brought in my old passport and the old lady at the desk said there was no form on file for my appointment. She gave me a blank form to fill out. I brought it back up and she told me to

  • Donna Stringer

I LOVE our post office--both the one on 4th Avenue and the one in Columbia City. Where else can you get things delivered so inexpensively. Please understand they do NOT lose money but are required by Congress to pre-fund their retirement

  • Aliya Sonnen

I'm not really sure why there are so many negative reviews of this place. I had a pretty pleasant experience and I went at a busy time. There was a woman directing people to a separate paying station to quicken the process and the woman

  • Steve Hirjak

Inadequate parking. PO boxes locked and restricted at night with no after hours access at this location. Mail comes and goes quickly from this central location but misdeliveries abound at this site. Usually lengthy waits for the counter

  • Ken Gtwo

the usual US Postal Service abysmal attitude and customer service. Consistently rude and slow. Staff did not know what to do with First Class International Service (only available online) tracking number and shipping document. They kept

  • Michael Goh

I don't think anyone expect good costumer service from USPS but this location, their counter staff got to be the worst. Beside my personal bad experience, I seen their manager yelled at an paying customer for not understanding USPS

  • jewleetube

Usually don't have a problem but today was different as the mail carrier[Melvin] took it upon himself to RTS my package and mark as UNDELIVERABLE when NO authority was given to him for such an action and to make matters worse, his

  • Claudia S

I had a bad experience trying to get my fingerprints scanned at another USPS so I decided to try this location. James was super patient, explained everything clearly, and we were able to get the scans. Thank you James!

  • Ryan Donahue

We scheduled an appointment for our daughter to get a passport. We showed up 10 minutes before as requested by the USPS. I waited in line and let the staff know. Rhonda said "sit over there and wait, we'll call you."

  • Troy Hewitt

I was able to call in and pick up a package I was very excited to recieve. It was easy as could be. Our USPS is an incredible organization, we should be very proud of the excellent work they do. Thank you USPS!

  • Dana Marie

I’ve always had success going in off hours to mail packages or get money orders. Nice people and prompt service. No experience with a PO Box there, but the other transactions I’ve made have always been good.

  • Nick Gonsalves

Woe is you who enter here. If you are reading these reviews, I hope you are not already entangled in some amazingly incompetent government scheme to make sure you are inconvenienced to the highest degree.

  • stephanie eastbury

I just pickup mail for business purposes . Not my personal mail.I don’t live in area at all. I wouldn’t know how services are due to its not open yet when I arrive for personal use of this usps

  • Chris J

Beyond rude, highly unprofessional avoid at all costs. If these folks are this angry over their job they really shouldn't take it out on polite customers, they should find another job

  • Tricia Daughters

Came here for fingerprinting service (only available M-F 10-3, cost $50) and James was calm, patient and helpful as he explained each step of the process to me. Thank you James!

  • Saad B

Have no idea of my packages location. Multiple times. Several calls and visits. Would have been faster and cheaper to just take the flights and pick and pick up.

  • Charlie Vo

If I could give this place a 0 star I would. If you can have your package picked up with the usps app. Do it. Going in person will make you rip your scalp out.

  • Jessica

Let me preface this by saying that I never write reviews, but my experience was so horrible I just had to.

  • J Z

They never delivered my greencard, 80% chance I might get a new one within 18 months. Thanks USPS.

  • Vinay Ram
