US Post Office

You may miss this post office depending on where you are coming from. I came down Washington Road and was told that my destination was on the left but I did not see a post office. When I was able to spot the location, it was on a one way street that I could not get to, so keep your eyes peeled and be careful. There was enough parking and the service was great. I enjoy seeing pleasant people who work in the post office, they get a bad rep.

Over the past few years the customer service at his location, as well as other locations, has greatly improved. It’s like they finally figured out that their job depends on it.

Be realistic when you walk into this Post Office — or any Post Office for that matter. If you expect to walk in and be helped right away, you are in the wrong place. Expect to see a line (if you don’t then yay!) and please for the sake of the others waiting, put on your patience cap and wait your turn quietly without all of the huffing and puffing. The women — and gentleman — that work up front are going to meet you with as much respect as you show them. I always have a pleasurable experience when I go to ship, which is almost daily. Trust me when I tell you that they would like to get you out as quickly as you would like to be, but it just doesn’t work that way. It’s nothing personal.
To the woman who decided to raise hell the day after the passing of one of their dear employees, if you ever happen to read this… shame on you.
For those of you reading this review with the mission to find real info instead of a rant: the East Point Post Office is clean, air-​conditioned + the employees are wonderful. The supplies you need are neatly stocked and if you can’t find something that you’re looking for, the staff is ready to assist. The only downside is the occasional + inevitable wait. If that turns you off, there is a UPS store off of Camp Creek Pkwy that you could try.

So, yeh, it’s the Post Office– but I need a little bit more than this when I go to the Post Office! If you go at any point during the day and spend less than 45 minutes in line consider yourself to be LUCKY!!! The folks who work there are really pretty nice– it’s a budget sort of thing as far as I can tell. They have one to two people working there in the front but usually it is just one person. And the temperature is not right. It’s usually HOT in there. HOT + long wait = horrible in any situation. Also, this place NEVER has the flat rate boxes and it for some unknown reason does not offer a machine at which you can purchase stamps. Not even the old school, low/​no tech kind. Also, don’t get your P.O. box here– if you have a package or something to sign for or something too big then you have to stand in the godforsaken line of death… er, service. And I’ll say it– this place is dirty and unorganized looking. If this place were not a US Post Office it would SO be out of business. Monopoly is all it has going for it.
