A package of mine bounced because of some issues with my address. After having significant difficulty relaying the issue over the phone and knowing it would just bounce again the following day, I elected to pay the post office a visit to see if they could help with the issue. Not only were they respectful and accommodating, but the female attendant went out of her way to make sure that the issue was properly clarified so it wouldnt happen again. I ended up being able to seamlessly collect my package at the post office the day after, avoiding it potentially being sent back to the return address. They honestly saved me from a potentially rather large inconvenience.

I have always witnessed the staff at this location be incredibly rude and unprofessional to their customers and especially impatient to their non-English speaking customers. However, today was the last straw. I’ve had it. I’ve never had a neutral experience from this location. I always walk out with such uncomfortable feelings. Today one of the employees that goes by the name on his name tag JE was incredibly disrespectful and mean. The second I approached the desk I became and inconvenience to his day and so he let me know that in the way he spoke to me, in the tone he used towards me, in the vocabulary he decided to use, in the way he decided to belittle me because I had made a mistake. I felt attacked and as if he was trying to pick a fight. I was nothing but nice and professional to him and he persisted to degrade me until I had to walk away. I would hope that this business can show some integrity, by better training or selecting their employees and taking this review into account and consider that although this man might have been having a bad day and his actions are not acceptable, employees tend to outperform when they are valued in the workplace. I have not only witnessed his cruelty but almost every employee at this facility is taking advantage of the authority they have. I am very disappointed at this business and I will do whatever it take to avoid coming back here again!

HOW MUCH IS A P O BOX?

I have a small one $56 for six months, any large packages you'll get a key to a locker. So the size really doesn't matter

Does anyone know the address to use, when something, can't be mailed to a P. O. BOX

Ashley Jefferson | Aug 26, 2019

Thanks guys, one of the postal workers gave the street address to the post office and to use my p.o.box number as an "apartment number". I was trying to see if that was accurate or if anyone else has tried it before.

cost of Overnight or Express or next day Delivery

Christopher Saaidi | Aug 26, 2018

Overnight (1 day) is about $40-50 for a 1-3lbs package. Priority (1-3 days, 90% of the time 2 days, based on distance) is only about $10-15 for flat-rate packages. Overnight no longer available for flat-rate packages. Just get Priority unless Overnight is mandatory. Both include tracking.

I cannot reach a representative to tell them that I have not received mail for 2 days. No service nor reply from USPS. GOVERNMENT SHOULD GIVE UP RUNNING THE POST OFFICE .

Does the Post Office take the passport photo when you go in person, or do you have to bring a photo? Do you need to make an appointment at Metairie LA post office, or can you just walk in?

Lelia Stucke | Aug 26, 2018
Christopher Saaidi | Aug 26, 2018

They can take photo. No appointment required.

Can a package be intercepted and expedited?

Denise Roy | Aug 26, 2018
Christopher Saaidi | Aug 26, 2018

Nope. The only changes you can make is to ask for package to be held at post office instead of delivery or to deliver to a neighbor. These changes require a tracking number and aren't available for all packages. If they are available, you will see them when you track the package online.
