“Dan is fantastic. He shows up on time. Does quality work at a fair price and goes the extra mile. He did things like fix broken sensors without asking. He knows his stuff and we couldn’t be happier.”

“I have only lived in West Simsbury for about 8 months, but every interaction I have had with either the Post Office or mail carrier has been great. Going into the post office, they have always been super helpful. My mail carrier is awesome. He doesn't try to stuff items in my mailbox.”
“They had my package for me like the paper said. It's a original landmark of the area and the employees are very nice and always handle my requests well above and beyond my expectations! I'd much rather do my postal business at this great little location than at most of the other local post offices in the area. Have a blessed day!”
“"Oh, oh, you've been good to meYou made me gladWhen I was blueAnd all I gotta doIs thank you girl, thank you girl"(The Beatles)Since I've retired, I've spent a good chunk of my time de-cluttering and down sizing my stuff. A lot of that includes selling off my long-time hobby collection of sports cards through various social media sites.And that means I've made dozens of trips to this post office to ship out whatever I sold. So on this #ThankYouThursday I want to give a special "Thank You" shout out to Robin and Alex who have guided me and helped me over the last eight months.They've educated me on the ins and outs of Flat Rate boxes, First Class Shipping and Tracking options, Media Mail and the unbelievably expensive costs to ship things to Canada.This is the only place I use to mail out my cards and the like.So Thank You, Robin and Alex.#ThankYouThursday”

“Wow! I’ve never experienced such kindness at a post office!
I came in to mail a box of birthday gifts for my 1-year-old granddaughter, but I wasn’t fully prepared. I didn’t have tape, and the first staff member (an Indian lady) told me to go buy some for $3.50. She also measured my box and said because it was slightly oversized, the postage would be nearly $40 instead of $25. I left, disappointed.
Sitting in my car, I decided to try again. I taped up the box using some recycled tape and went back inside. The first lady was gone, replaced by another Indian lady and an older gentleman named Abe. While she was a bit slower, Abe impressed me right away—he was serving customers swiftly and efficiently, often working with two at once. He clearly knew what he was doing and kept the line moving.
When it was my turn, Abe remeasured my box. Unfortunately, the first lady had been right—it was still too big for the lower rate. He gently asked if I’d consider reboxing it, which motivated me to give it a shot. I left again, thinking I might not bother—but I came back a third time.
Abe waved me over and, to my surprise, offered to help me! He found not one, but two boxes used boxes, tested them both, and helped me tape it all up with care. While doing this, he kept serving others, moving nonstop with grace and patience.
I know it’s not customary for USPS to assist customers with taping, let alone packaging stuff. And, being here multiple times I’ve never seen this, here or at any US post offices across the country. But, obviously this man noticed my dilemma and took it upon himself to be a kind soul.
Abe went far above and beyond. His kindness, efficiency, and generosity absolutely made my day. I hope his boss sees this acknowledgement of his excellent service. Because of people like him, the world truly is a better place. Thank you so much, Abe!”
“Great and fast service at this USPS location. Both ladies who typically operate the counter are friendly and competent. Rarely more than one other person in line, and good stock of supplies. I ship here regularly.”
“I have always found the South Windsor post office to be a helpful place even on the times once a year when I come in with 20 packages. The postal clerks have never given me a hard time about it or been anything but friendly. I look forward to going there.”
“For the first time in my life, I enjoyed visiting a post office! I have never met such kind and polite staff! I thought that heroes can be not only policemen and firemen but also all these wonderful people who do their job honestly with love and kindness, forgetting about their personal problems. God bless these holy people!”
“This post office is small but fast and efficient and the person at the counter is always the same and provides great customer service. Definitely the best post office in the area.”

“The staff at this Post Office are always professional and friendly, even the trainees. They helped me navigate the Passport process due to the Covid restrictions with ease. I actually go out of my way to go there.”
“They have very good customer service here when I go in there it's in and out it's never crowded if you're in a rush this is the post office to go to”
“I must say Nick at the Granby office is the most helpful USPS employee I have ever spoken with. I had a lost package that he was able to help me get situated. After hours on the 800 number I decided to call the local office and he managed to get it resolved in under an hour with a CALL BACK to confirm as well. As someone who manages a sales staff and constant phone comms I have to say this was some of the best customer support I have ever had across all markets. This man deserves 100 stars. Honestly this was the best experience I have ever had with USPS and have zero complaints even with the package being delayed. As a whole Im not fond of the new USPS process however that is not their mistake. New sorting machines etc. that were forced on them is why packages are behind not the workers. Remember that.”
“I was ordering my passport, had never done a money order before and kept grabbing the wrong envelope. The passport lady was super understanding, helped me with signing and finding which documents I needed to send and which to keep.”
“Decent if you're using the self-service kiosk. There are times when it may be acting up, no physical receipt, trouble with the label scanner, but you can always have the digital copy sent to your email. Great for busy ebay and Amazon sellers.”
“I’ve been to this post office a few times and they are always courteous and efficient. I worked with Karen today to mail several packages and envelopes. She was kind, patient, and had me out of there in under 5 minutes!”
“I wanted to see how the post office works before the holidays and noticed that the rating is very low. This is not true. I am very grateful to the entire team for their politeness and patience with me personally, since my English is not 100% good. Very often I arrive 15 minutes before closing (not on purpose), and I always received professional service! I wish all the employees of this branch happiness, health and bright holidays!!!”
“Miguel was extremely knowledgeable and helpful! He took the time to assess what I was shipping and directed me to the appropriate packaging so I didn’t end up overpaying. He saved me a ton of $$$. Excellent customer service!”
“The staff and front desk clerk's are always friendly and very patient. The parkinglot has also been updated for more room and space. Great job guys keep up the good work.”
“I go to this post office all the time and i l9ve it the staff is very knowlable and friendly and help there coutomers to the best of there avalibity i live this post office”
“I wanted to share my positive feedback from my visit this morning. Theresa and a male staff member provided excellent service and were both very helpful and polite. Thank you for your service!”
“I walked in there feeling rather frustrated as two packages didn't show up. Not sure her name, but some gorgeous women dressed to kill opened the little door window which made me not so frustrated about having to drive about this morning. She took down the tracking numbers and went in back to figure it out. It took 5-10 minutes but when she came back out she had printed off a couple sheets to patiently explain to confused me what happened with my packages. Very helpful.”
“Love love love Sonya! Omg heart of gold. Cried tears of compassion over the piece of mail I was sending my daughter. She is a God send give that kind soul a raise. Yall Rock! Open to 1 pm whaaaat! :)”
“In this age of home delivery for everything... I found myself in need of a post office. I had Christmas presents that I wanted to send the old-fashioned way.
The two employees at the Maple Avenue brach were both busy, but both seemed friendly and helpful, and the line moved quickly.
This is only my second or third time at this post office, but I have not experienced a problem so far.”
“Typically efficient, and I'm able to get in & out in a reasonable amount of time.
Once in a while, they have fewer staff and if you happen to walk in at the same time as a bunch of others the wait can be longer. However, you can't plan for this.”
“I live in west Hartford but I hate the post offices near me so I went there I feel good because of one young lady name is Kay she is so helpful and she done so quick 4 passport in just 30 min thank you so much Kay 4 star just for you”
“I came for passport services and the service received was 5+.Staff was courteous, professional, and detailed.I just moved to Simsbury and earlier in the week I went to the Simsbury one onHopMeadow . The service was awful, The agent in Simsbury treated me like an idiot and was rude..What a difference 4.7 miles makes.”
