The UPS Store

I’m moving to the Ithaca area; but after one too many bad experiences with a certain USPS office in Buffalo, which almost required that I Unilocal it, I decided to return to UPS after sadly parting ways when I left Georgia, about which I also Unilocaled.
I haven’t even sent this UPS store my paperwork for a mailbox yet, but my phone call to them earlier today reminded me of the good ol’ days back in ATL: professionalism, normalcy (Sorry, B-​lo, but you don’t do «weird» like Austin, TX or Berkeley «Berzerkeley», CA.), consistency, and access to the information that I need — often times without knowing to ask… the latter of which is related to more than one experience I’ve had in Buffalo, but that’s beside the point. ‘Nough said.
Anyway, I’m just really excited to have my little golden box back! I’ve never been a «you get what you pay for» type of gal, and my pre-​Buffalo post office box experiences would most definitely prove this ideology wrong, but it’s just like, I’m gagging to pay twice as much money for the peace of mind I know I’ll get with a UPS mailbox.
Thanks, Store #6252. I’m really looking forward to doing business with you.

I have gotten nothing but stellar service from this UPS location. Here are some nice perks at this store
1. Amazon returns are super easy here; they even allow you to log into your amazon account on their computer and print your label for free. Print your label, give them your package and leave — it’s super fast!
2. If you show up with a package that they think is packed poorly they will doctor it up very quickly with extra tape, so it gets through shipping undamaged, at no extra charge
3. They are always upfront about all charges and the pros and cons about each of the shipping methods.
UPS isn’t cheap, but the very friendly and useful customer service makes it a far better option for shipping your packages than dealing with the long lines, unreliable shipping and poor service that can be found at Ithaca’s branch of the US post office.

Great staff, super friendly. Excellent customer service and help you with all packing.
