US Post Office

Quick line — no fuss — plenty of parking — what else could you want from a post office.

I don’t usually come to the post office often, but this was a great experience. A small quiet office, nothing like what I am used to. Nice workers. Got in and out quickly.

This place is in the cutest of Torrance neighborhoods and there is ample parking. It’s not a very large Post office, but it has everything you need. I showed up here around 2 pm on a Friday and it wasn’t very packed at all.
I really liked this post office! And I HATE going to Post Offices. The people here were very friendly and I didn’t feel rushed at all. I had a couple of packages I wanted to send and wanted to know if it would be cheaper to send it in my own box or a medium priority flat rate box. The woman assisting me took her time to weigh each package and let me know what my options would be without even the slightest hint of annoyance. I appreciated that immensely.
I live in Lawndale and hate my local post office. I think I may just make the trek here for those times I absolutely need to go to the Post Office.

Terrible! Several of my packages have been lost and a couple more were sent to the wrong location! I finally went to the post office on Crenshaw and my packages have since been delivered to the right place. Whoever sends out deliveries from this location is an idiot.

This Place is kind of hard to find for first time comers. There is no obvious sign. Do Not hesitate to ask people where it is. When i go there after work around 4.45pm, quite a lot of people. Reliable Service, I never lost one package.

Didn’t even know this post office was here until I found it on Unilocal.Super convenient. Parking is never a problem. Customer Service is great. And you can buy stamps no problem. Only thing is I wish they were open a little earlier. But can’t really complain.

I will give them 0 stars if I could. I sent a very important package to my son in San Diego from this office overnight, I paid the $ 16.50 and they said they guaranty a 1 day delivery. Is over one day and the package was sent to San Bernardino not San Diego, I called the 800 # and after 40 minutes of waiting to get help, they said they are very sorry but the package was sent to San Bernardino by error and is ready to be deliver… WHEN!!!
They will have to give me my money back, but they can not just mail me a check, I have to go back to the office, get in line and then maybe get my money back… but that is not the problem, I sent this overnight because it had to be there by noon today… I hope this is not going to create a serious problem for my son.
Sorry son, very sorry!
I WILL NEVER TRUST USPS WITH ANY IMPORTANT MAIL AGAIN!!!

I have been here twice, both times around noon to get stamps for my mail. Found parking easily in front of the post office. The office was not busy — I waited in line for less than a minute (2 windows open and only 1 person waiting in front of me), and the workers are friendly and fast. It was less busy than the post office on PCH when I visited.

This place is awesome. It is in the heart of downtown Torrance. Great place to be around. Only open during the day and has no self-​service kiosks. It is perfect for me when I just need to drop something off and am passing thru. I haven’t had the chance to deal with the Postal Service Workers but I’m sure they are like many folks who just want to do their 8 and go home. Its a nice building and is in historic and well maintained Downtown Torrance. Kinda like a blast from the past.

I don’t think most people expect the greatest service at a post office, and I doubt many people would check Unilocal’s reviews for one, but I just have to write my review to vent about the horrific service I’ve had here! A woman here murdered 100 of my pet shrimp I ordered from Hawaii last Christmas. The box said «LIVE shrimp. Keep cool.» She unapologetically scolded me for not picking them up on Friday, said she didn’t want them to rot and stink up their office over the weekend, so she PUT THEM IN THE FREEZER. I understand that accidents happen, but that was not an accident. How does anyone with any sense put something ALIVE in a freezer? Fast forward one year later, my mom wanted to order the shrimp this Christmas. Yesterday I made a special trip over there to make sure they don’t get frozen over the weekend again, but the lady behind the counter was COMPLETELY unfriendly and unhelpful. She wouldn’t even look at the tracking number. She told me to go to the main office, so I did this morning… but unfortunately the shrimp were sent to the Marcelina office which is closed until Monday. If they murder my shrimp again, I… should go postal, but I’ll probably just cry again.

I love these guys. this is the best little post office around! the place is cleaner than most post offices and the staff is always helpful, nice, and patient. the lines are never too long because the staff is efficient and keeps things moving.

I came here today to send out my brother’s birthday presents. At first, driving by, I couldn’t find it because it was incognito. Upon walking towards it, there were 2 blue post office boxes right in front. «Hello,» I told myself.
It was small and quaint. You can tell it is an older building. Nothing extra special, but what do you expect from USPS?

I’ve never had to wait in line long. My only complaint is the parking. There’s a lot of slow moving elderly people in this town so that means waiting for a parking spot can take forever.

Tiny post office located in Old Torrance — very quiet and no lines on a Friday afternoon. Came here to mail an International Express airmail package after having lunch at nearby Ichimi Ann Bamboo Garden.

Convenient cozy little location with friendly staff and usually not too bad of a line. There’s a bigger PO nearby but lines there can be even worse. No real complaints for me tho. Parking is very convenient and it’s close to my office… i’ve come to know the staff and they’ve always been incredibly friendly.
Lines around lunch time can get pretty long tho, since it’s so small… there’s only usually 2 people working the lines, and that’s when it’s busy. You can’t blame them for being a convenient location and that a lot of people come here.
Definitely come well before lunch or well after… other wise you’ll be waiting a while. Again, the crenshaw office is just a little ways away, but even with triple the amount of staff they have there; you’ll wait even longer there, trust me. I’ve done it.
Only drawback really is that they don’t have everything the main office does, especially when you’re looking for specific types of stamps.

This place is a hit or miss.
I’ve had good experiences where the line was short, service is fast, and parking is plentiful.
Then again I’ve had times where parking is non-​existing, line was long, and service was extra slow. I actually stood in line for what seemed like forever once because an employee was too busy flirting with a young female customer!
The only tips I have to make the trip easy are :
Don’t go during lunch time.
Have your items ready.
And load up your phone with music, games, or books to pass the time while in line.
Good luck!

Slow. Nice people, but sloooooowwwwww…
Enough said.

Friendly customer service. Impatient customers waiting in line who will make it known that they are unhappy with you if you don’t have your shipping item ready to ship by the time you’re at the front of the line… calm down people! (it’s only your lunch break– it’s not an emergency!)
When I went they had boxes for 50% off, even non-​holiday boxes.
Complaint: why is there no automated machine here yet? :(that would save so much time for those who simply need to buy a stamp!

Convenient location… kind of hidden away… I found a parking space right in front… walked in… there was 1 person in line before me… sent my package and was back in my car in less than 5 minutes!!! That’s awesome!
