US Post Office

Although the door says the hours are 10am to 4pm, be cautious… because they close randomly!!!
I came at 1:50 on a Thursday and there was a line of people outside a closed post office with handwritten note that said they were closed for lunch until 2:10. Really?!?
I completely respect closing for lunch, but this should be advertised not randomly chosen when the clerk wants to.
What kind of business customer service is this?! Especially for a federal post office!
I’ll find a new post office that understands the concept of posted hours and doesn’t inconvenience their customers.

I’ve been here twice after 1:30and they have not been opened, once i got there after 2:10 and there was a line of people waiting but still no workers, i wonder if they can have an inspector show up to fix this very annoying and an inconvenience problem

I came here on a Saturday. The line was all the way to the door and there was only one person at the counter. I waited 30 minutes just to buy 1 stamp. The whole time I was waiting the lady at the counter kept complaining why people come to her store. Her location is the only location open on a Saturday that is close to the strip. Next time I’ll be coming here if it’s my only option. I think I prefer to go to the other post office on Decatur even though it’s farther.

I used to love to come here especially since it’s a 5 minute drive from work. But I’ve stopped coming here because Dede is not there anymore. When Dede was there, the line would go by really fast. Since she’s been gone, the line is so slow now. I’ve been there maybe 6 times since she was gone and each time waited about 30 minutes. Now I drive to a further post office.

This Post Office location is so small. They are only open between 10am-​4pm on weekdays, closed all day Sat. There is no drop box for after hour mailing, and no Priority boxes available either.
To top it off, they close for lunch between 1−2pm everyday. So they are only open for 5 hours each day. Is there only one person who works here? That’s the only reason why I can think they would have to close for lunch. And even then, 30 mins would do it.
If you have a PO Box here, the lobby isn’t open 24 hrs. They close it at 10pm. So that means someone comes back to lock up. They come back at 10pm but they can’t open any earlier to 10am?

The service from the one employee in here was very outgoing and fantastic. This office is small and run down, and poorly maintained. They do not have any machines to

ITS HARD TO SHIP A FLAT RATE BOX WITHOUT THE BOX
Realizing that our two bag limit for carry-​on items was going to be difficult to keep, we decided that we should ship a box home. Not a lot of stuff, and nothing important, just some documents and swag from the convention we attended. And some sandals, soap, hotel lotions, etc. Decided to leave the alcohol behind. I hope someone at the auto rental place enjoys the vodka because we put it in the front seat for them. Next to the dirty car door they rented us.
Unfortunately, after finding this location of USPS we stopped by and it was closed up. Lunch from 1 – 2 is fine but they had NO supplies available inside. Perhaps I’m spoiled here in Walnut Creek. Our USPS has supplies and stickers, tape, pens… all sorts of goodies and most available after-​hours, as they are located in the area with P.O. Boxes. Boxes for flat-​rate shipping are always available at the home office. And they don’t close for lunch. Of course this is not the case while on vacation.
Thanks a lot, USPS. Now we get to drive around some more. If your location is too small to stay open for lunch, perhaps it’s not absolutely necessary to keep it open at all. Especially as the federal government is trying to cut USPS hours anyhow.

CLOSED FOR LUNCH!!!
It was Wednesday at 1:20 in the afternoon, the sun was out and my wife and I got way too much swag at the Heli Expo. Now we couldn’t get everything into our luggage, (yes we tried) so we decided to head to the nearest post office and get a flat rate box to ship stuff back home. Now we all know that if it fits then it ships, and this was actually my first time ever using this wonderful system.
Now I can’t lie, I was a little excited to see how much stuff I could fit into these boxes. So we got onto Unilocal and looked up the local post office. Found It! It was only a couple of miles away from the convention center and then it would be a quick drive to the airport.
So we pull up to the post office, walk up to the door and notice there is a sign on the door saying they are closed for lunch and will be back at 2:00. The door was open, so we walked inside and they didn’t have any boxes or for that matter they didn’t have anything that was accessible while they were at lunch.
So this meant that we either had to wait 40 minutes until they were done with lunch or go somewhere else. What a pain!

At the N.E. corner of Desert Inn and Eastern, just a couple of doors down from Ross and behind the Starbucks on the corner is a small US Post Office. It’s a retail unit that from the outside doesn’t look like much. The PO box area is a little worn and tired looking, and the big metal door that covers the main section doesn’t do much to make the place inviting. And yes, there’s typically a line of 3 – 5 people when you step inside. But that line moves fast thanks to a USPS employee named DeDe who really knows her stuff. USPS employees like her used to be a common thing, now they are a rarity. She will get you in, get you what you need, and get you on your way pretty quickly. And you get it all without attitude, although I don’t think I’d want to irritate her as she’s not the type you wanna mess with.
This location is a diamond in the rough, and when you need a Post Office and don’t want to be standing around watching another episode of the slow and the clueless you go here. Things just get done here without fuss. And that’s why I like it so much.
4 VERY strong Stars for this one.

This is a tiny location in a strip mall near Ross and La Bonita Market. It’s very busy– mostly senior clients who probably live in the area (regulars). There is usually one person at the desk (which explains the «closed for lunch» policy). There are convenient saturday hours, but it closes at 1 pm, so get here early. If you can stand waiting a bit, it’s worth coming here, since there are so few in the area. (The one across UNLV is mon-​friday only.)
Mailboxes are to the right as you walk in the door. There is a dropbox in front of the little outpost, if you just need to drop off something that’s already posted/​stamped.
