Post Offices near Calabasas, CA

“Sometimes, we don't know when we'll be needing a post office when not in our usual stomping grounds. Looking for one on the phone pulled up several in adjacent neighborhoods, so why not go to one in Calabasas, a very nice, wooded, and hilly neighborhood at Los Angeles's far western edge?I see that there's a spread in the reviews for the USPS in Calabasas, CA. We've all had some outlier experiences with post offices we regularly use. Some post offices are almost always marginal, but that's rare and can sometimes coincide with their area in general. I almost hate to say that. The Calabasas post office is in a strip mall. It shares parking with other merchants in this strip mall, but a parking space is likely to be found.I needed to send a small box using the USPS priority mail product. Their free boxes you obtain for this service are well designed - in how sturdy they are, in how easy they are to assemble, and even in how easy it is to remove the protective adhesive so that the box will seal. The price for this was just about $10.The gentleman at the counter was helpful and polite. He even added some extra tape at my request, even though the box probably would not have come undone. But why chance it? We made some small talk, given how uncrowded it was at the time, and we commented on how the SFV and the West Side of L.A. have changed over the years.I was told the parcel would arrive in 2 days. It got to its destination the following day! I'm giving this post office 4 stars because it's a small post office. However, it's clean and seems to function well.Now, let me add some pedantic fodder to this review. First, more so than any other section of the city of Los Angeles, SFV suburbs tend to use the name of the suburb (Northridge, Van Nuys, Sylmar, Studio City, etc.) on the mailing address, whereas West Side suburbs like Brentwood, Ladera Heights, and Miracle Mile use Los Angeles on the mailing address. However, if you were to send something to a SFV suburb and address it to Los Angeles - followed by the correct zip code - I'm pretty sure it would get there. Then, the word "calabazas," from which Calabasas was probably derived, means pumpkins in Spanish.”

“Greatest Post Office on earth. Seriously, the entire team from Lupe to Daniel to Raul have allowed me to grow my business faster than I had ever hoped.Looking for a Post Office with actually super friendly employees and great service? Well, turns out it exists and it’s nestled nicely within Topanga.My only concern is that the team seems to be understaffed and overworked since the new Postmaster took over. The team works as hard as humanly possible, but there are still limits to what can be reasonably accomplished with only one or two employees at the front, especially as we approach the busiest time of the year for packages and mail.Thank you team!Andy”

“Dolly goes above and beyond expectations for helping her customers out with questions about packages and mail ! 100% will recommended her to anyone . She is the best with providing such kind customer service :)”

“KAREN is just AMAZING! I went to this store for a fingerprint, how friendly, helpful and skilled she was. After I missed my appointment because of lack of knowledge and horrible customer service at the Moorpark store, I highly recommend you all don't waste your time, even if you need to drive a little more to Simi Valley for the “Fieldprint”fingerprint appointment, just do it.”

“The Encino Post Office operates with a level of consistency and efficiency that’s increasingly rare. Under the management of Alfonso, the branch is well-organized and runs smoothly even during busy hours. Wait times are generally short, and the staff appear well-trained and focused on keeping things moving without unnecessary delays.

Alfonso maintains a visible presence and seems actively involved in daily operations, which likely contributes to the overall professionalism of the team. The counters are staffed appropriately, lines are managed efficiently, and any questions are handled clearly and without confusion.

It’s evident that this location benefits from strong leadership and attention to process. Compared to other branches I’ve visited, the Encino location stands out for being clean, orderly, and consistent. It’s a reliable place to take care of postal needs without hassle.”

“Easily the most helpful post office workers I e ever had been going here for 6 years and if there’s confusion with a stamp they help you instead of get frustrated that you didnt select the right postage”

“BEST POST OFFICE HANDS DOWN, you have questions ask for John Probably the best person who work at the office, literally helped me walked me through everything and even called me back to touch base, i believe he’s a supervisor but also does help at the front, this man is a blessing, a legend !”

“I went in to deliver a package to Wisconsin and the man at the desk, Mickey, was so kind and helpful. He went above and beyond to explain what the best option would be for delivering my fragile package. I really felt like my delivery was in good hands and he was just a genuinely kind person which is rare to find in service these days. Thank you Mickey!”

“This post office was kind of tricky to find at first — it’s tucked away in the back corner of the plaza, and I actually passed by it once because I got confused and ended up at the UPS Store next to it instead. Just a heads-up if you’re going for the first time — it’s easy to miss if you’re not paying close attention.

Once I found it though, the service was great. The staff member working there (a Black man, didn’t catch his name) was super friendly and helpful. He took care of everything I needed, and even gave me a date stamp on my letter — which is something you don’t see very often anymore at post offices. That really stood out and made my day.

Unfortunately, they didn’t have the flag stamps in stock, which was a bummer because that’s what I came for. But aside from that, it was a smooth and positive experience.

Thank you again to the staff member who helped me — you were awesome!”

“Other than having a very hard time finding this place, the service was great and the postal workers were friendly and helpful. I also came at noon, which isn't as busy a time. If you're trying to look for this place, it's behind the Amazon Fresh. I didn't know that there was a small mall in that corner.”

“I stopped by this USPS office to drop of an Amazon return. I been to the plaza this USPS office is in so many times but never knew there was a USPS here. I found parking easily since this office is in a plaza with many parking spots. When I walked inside the post office, there was no one in line so I was able to walk up and hand my package since everything was paid for already. I got my receipt and left, it was a simple and easy process.”

“I stopped by this USPS this morning to ship out my package that I'm returning. I already got the shipping label and everything so I just came here to drop it off. I found parking easily since I came right at 10am when the open. When I walked inside, only 2 people were in line and 1 person working the counter. It's very quiet in the building, like you're in the library. When it was my turn, the lady scanned my package and checked the weight. She also told me that next time I can use the kiosk near the front door to make things faster. I didn't know about the kiosk so if there a next time I have to come here, I'll try doing that.”

“I don’t know what you all are talking about. I just went there with two media mail boxes and the wait was five minutes and the clerk was friendly, smart, and efficient. My experience was super positive!”

“This is the post office I usually go to because it's the closest one to where I work. The staff are always nice and friendly, and they answer any questions you might have about sending or receiving mail. There's plenty of parking at this location, and they have some self-serve machines that help you avoid waiting in line if you don't need assistance. When you do have to wait, the time depends on how many people are in line and how many staff are working the counter that day. It's always a pleasant experience using USPS. See you next time for the next letter or package!”

“This is the USPS location I use most of the time because it’s the closest to my house. The staff are always super friendly and ready to explain anything I need help with. They have a small parking lot that can get busy at times you might have to wait a minute or two or circle back for a spot. Inside, there are only two or three service counters, but the staff work efficiently and keep the line moving, so wait times are rarely an issue. I’ve had to send packages internationally before, and any time I had questions about the forms or process, they helped me every step of the way with a smile on their faces. It’s a completely different experience compared to the Reseda location, where everyone always looks miserable. I 100% recommend this USPS location to anyone in the Winnetka area who needs to send mail.”

“Gonzal and Tristan were both very helpful guiding a package through the USPS system that got hung up in the Phoenix Distribution Center. Once it arrived at the Reseda location, it was quickly put in the hands of the recipient. Thank you both for your help!”

“9/10x i have a positive experience..lines arent long and workers are very helpful..only one ive had a problem with..she was super rude and gave me wrong information just so i would leave. Cant have one miserable person ruin it for the others that are awesome!”

“Today I mailed six small packages and postal clerk Lerne was extremely pleasant and helpful. He made the entire experience at the Canoga Avenue Post Office an enjoyable one.”
