Constantly says on tracking info : Per Customer Request Item being held at Post office!? Yea I would much rather come all the way there to get it than it be delivered as requested. I get my neighbors mail and vice versa WEEKLY. ORDERED RX, typically takes 3-4 days to receive AFTER received by Athens PO. Do not understand how so many people can complain and nothing is ever done to correct.

Absolutely the Worst, Most Rude, Unprofessional Postmaster running this office (Oscar). Good Luck getting any help from him. The workers are more helpful than the Man running it. I have had packages go missing, keep having mail delivered that’s not mine, wrong addresses delivered to me, Mail being marked as “not deliverable” or “no access to address” when it was a flat out Lie, etc. I have tried battling with this office for the past 10 years and have had to make several complaints. If you live in Athens and need to send off a package, need stamps, etc., go to the Tanner office. They are much more helpful and Professional.

Questions & Answers

I am asking the same question as Ms. Roman out going mail in the box flag up for days why? This lack of service has made payments to arrive late invoking unnecessary late charges. Can my business be added to another adjacent route in 35613?

Maybe I can help. I was told by a Postmaster that residential mail, even with the alerts, are not guaranteed for pickup. Shocker! This was recent USPS policy. He suggested we drive to a blue box or a USPS station for all timely postings. Yeah, I did not like this either.

Prescription medicines According to USPS rules, if you want to ship prescription medicines, you must be a drug manufacturer, a registered agent of a drug manufacturer, pharmacy, medical practitioner, or other authorized dispenser. Over-the-counter drugs What about non-prescription medicines like pain and fever reducers (i.e. Tylenol, Advil), cold and cough medicines, decongestants, and antihistamine pills? You can mail over-the-counter drugs, which are medicines purchased or obtained without a prescription. However, you would still need to be compliant with local and federal laws like the Poison Prevention Packaging Act and the Consumer Product Safety Act. Controlled substances, such as narcotics, anabolic steroids, and hallucinogenic drugs, cannot be mailed internationally and in cases of domestic mail, you would have to be an authorized dispenser, such as a medical practitioner or pharmacist. The USPS takes the shipment of narcotics very seriously, and prohibits
