Mail & Parcel USA

I had a problem here a couple years ago, when I sent three christmas packages to three different addresses, yet somehow 2 packages ended up going to one person, and another got left out, so I was hesitant to go here again, but I didn’t feel like fighting Mardi Gras traffic to get to another fedex location, so I decided to give them another try. Big mistake. First, I had to give the guy the shipping info twice because he had to change it to be a business. I paid, $ 20-​something for 2-​day service on a 1lb fedex pak, which sounds about right. But then he couldn’t print me a proper label, but I insisted on one because of my previous experience (plus, how was he going to ship it if he couldn’t print the label?). So, I had to give him all the shipping info AGAIN, but it wouldn’t print. So we went to another computer where he asked for the info again, so I just handed him the paper with it written. He was finally able to print a label, but everything was misspelled. The street name was really far off! So, I had him fix it and print it again. Then he tells me that this is saying it should cost $ 67, but he’ll pay the difference since I’ve had problems in the past. I pointed out that this is an outrageous price for this kind of shipment, so something must be wrong, but he stuck by it. I guess I was supposed to feel appreciative, or maybe bad about making a fuss, and be thankful that I didn’t have to pay the $ 67 that it should have cost? I checked online at
(which is where I should have created this shipment in the first place and just dropped it off) and it agreed with the initial $ 20-​something. I’d expect someone in the shipping business to notice such a big difference.
Anyway, the issues didn’t end there. When I went online to track the package using the printout I was given, it said «shipment cancelled by sender». I called, and they said it had been delivered, and gave me a new tracking number. The whole thing was really sloppy and way too much work to do to mail one package.

Everything these other reviewers have said and more! The couple that runs this shop is friendly, sharp, and accommodating. I came here after a botched print job at the FedEx Office on St. Charles (it failed both on the self-​serve kiosk _​and_​when the staff printed it manually). The folks at Mail & Parcel actually took the time it get it right for me, and shipped it out to boot!
It’s a deceptively subtle storefront, so keep your eyes peeled! Worth every penny.

This family business is SUPERB. Not only were they flexible with our budgets — discussing multiple options of envelope, paper, printing — but they were so efficient and professional they kept US on our own timeline to get our mailing out. They turned around our mailing FAST. The invitations looked FLAWLESS. I’m not messing around with these CAPS.
What was also lovely is how friendly they are — I called many places for quotes and I understand your a dime a dozen when calling some places — often other printing offices sounded busy or distracted or even annoyed. This print shop listened to every detail and concern. Hands down the best when it comes to pricing, friendliness, and cost.
Only the 2^nd review? It’s like a printing secret. Shhhhhh…

I had no idea this place existed, but apparently it’s been around since mid-​2010!
I’ve been needing to print about 150 pages for like a week now, but the printer has been broken at the Elysian Fields UPS store (where I usually go to print stuff out). Seeing as it’s Carnival season, I REALLY didn’t want to wanna deal with going downtown to get to the 24hr Kinkos on St. Charles. A friend of mine told me about this place, which is just over the bridge on St. Claude and Reyes. It’s literally like 3 minutes from my house – so convenient. Besides printing, they do UPS, FedEx, and plain old USPS there, and they have mailbox rentals. And the hours are awesome (9 – 7:30 on weekdays, 10 – 3 on Saturday). The lady working there when I went last night was super cool and helpful. They had this article posted at the counter:
Anyway, I look forward to giving them more business.
