Erika NonkenFebruary 27, 2014Amaaaaazingly slow: bring a book or equivalent to pass the time. Bonus tip: please don't b*tch to everyone else in line about how slow it is. We can all see that- no point in adding to the negativity!
Shane Snipes, PhDSeptember 30, 2021I’d definitely come from 6-7p. It was pretty quiet. Not sure most people know it’s open that late.

LouisSeptember 22, 2014The women r slower than molasses, ruder than Simon Cowell, lazier than a fat cat. Go there if u like ghetto service or walk up to 112st where they give u professional service w/ a smile.
Joel HilarioMay 10, 2011Just show up early and they have like 5-6 workers and no line... Come on people this NYC you goes always want everything done fast well so does everyone else.. Stop complaining and get there early!!!!
Andres MarinApril 14, 2015I know USPS don't have the best reputation, but this is the WORSE post office that i been. People are so rude. But thank you now i will use UPS or FEDEX no more USPS. WORSE EXPERIENCE EVER
AngDecember 10, 2013Get ready to have patience... Not the best post office as others say...I've been coming here for the past 10 years.. Get over it! Lol- Sandy CampbellFebruary 2, 2012The January 22 first class postage increase to 45 cents is a secret. It's not on the USPS website, and there are no notices in the post office!
Doesn't really open til 9am. You can go in and stand in line, though. And there are lines as.early as 8:30. Enjoy!
PavelJuly 26, 2012Everyone was very polite and ready to help. No lines. and they accept credit cards
The pens don't work & they sell boxes but there is no tape available to put them together. Bring your own!
The lady who served me was clearly racist in the way she treated me (I'm asian). She even refused to sell me the cheaper options even though I know they are valid!
The door to the post office was open but the clerk said they don’t start working until 9am smh why is the door open at 8am for people to come in but they can’t get service until an hour later?
LindseyApril 2, 2013This place is a joke. Ive been to many USPS in the city and none are as bad as this one. They are rude and always yelling, customers are always upset. Too bad we can't help who our post office is :(
Petra AldrichSeptember 7, 2011Always leave plenty of time for errands here: service at the parcel window especially is glacially slow and staff are less than helpful- Sandy CampbellOctober 1, 2011The customer is always wrong here. They actually have a book for customers showing how to properly send mail. I'd love to see FedEx try something like that.
Marty ThomasMarch 2, 2012Avoid tho location at all cost. everyone is in the worst mood when there to deal w rude and dismissive postal workers Except the guy who looks like Santa, he is the bomb.- Sandy CampbellOctober 1, 2011Customers are really pissed off here. And as one guy was saying to another person on the long line, it's an undirected anger. You don't want to be here!
- Sandy CampbellNovember 18, 2011Don't use the mailbox on the sidewalk outside the Post Office. There are only two pickup times, noon and 5 pm, and 1:15 on Saturdays.
Anna PotterDecember 10, 2010check it out, haters: all post offices have stupidly long lines and pissed off underpaid staff. this one's no different. this PO is large and has the APCs and all that good stuff.- Sandy CampbellJanuary 23, 2014How many postal workers does it take to change a lightbulb? One to break it, one to lose it and one to claim they never had it in the first place
- Sandy CampbellOctober 1, 2011There should be a law against having such hard-to-open doors, especially considering how many oldsters come here.
Everyone who works here needs an attitude adjustment...there are tons of unemployed people that would happily take over. Learn the meaning of respect, you are not superior to your patrons. Fuck you.- I have never hated anything more than I hate this USPS office. #usps
- Sandy CampbellNovember 6, 2013The Spirit Airlines of postage. Or is Spirit the USPS of airlines? Oh whatever, they both suck.
- Sandy CampbellNovember 6, 2013Even though they're open til 6, mail sent after 5 isn't cancelled until the next day. I guess that last hour is a break before closing.
- Sandy CampbellOctober 1, 2011Save time and use the package ATM if you can. The UI is pretty simple to use.
Margaret RyanMay 18, 2016This is the worst post office in the country. Don't use it unless you absolutely have to. The people are rude, the service is glacially slow, and they lose things. Use FedEx or UPS.
- Sandy CampbellAugust 24, 2013It's 4 p.m. and the post office is open. How come? Not complaining, but I thought it closed at 2 on Saturday.
Bring something to read!! Beware - Lines are consistently 30 min +
Shaya KlechevskyApril 21, 2010Supervisor belligerent and unhelpful. Everything moves at a snail's pace.
Sonny DatoyMay 19, 2011not for the weak of heart. doing business at ANY post office is a competitive sport.
- Sandy CampbellOctober 1, 2011USPS is billions in debt. The govt is threatening to close branches, eliminate Saturday service and fire workers. Wouldn't you think they'd bend over backwards to make people happy? Not!
Yep. Everyone is so right. You better have 45 min to spare if you're doing any business here. Absolutely awful.
Always understaffed and full of customers. Prepare to wait a while.- Don't come if you're pressed for time. Parcel pick up is a joke.
Vince StangeMay 30, 2013It really is as bad, if not worse than people say. When you live near here, you have no choice but to come here to pick up missed packages. Sucks.
no wonder the USPS is going under. if these rude, racist assholes were moving any slower, they'd be going backwards.- Sandy CampbellJanuary 7, 2012How come there are no hours on the door? Are you supposed to just know it closes on Saturday?
Peter NApril 5, 2010If you like waiting in line and getting harassed by the postal workers, this is the place for you.
