“I had to ship something large and gangly and weird shaped and the kind folks here made it such an easy and painless process! I had put off shipping it for a month because I was dreading it, but it truly took all of a few minutes with their expert help. And they did a great job of keeping it affordable too! I can’t recommend them enough.”
“I always go to this UPS Store location to drop off my weekly research packages. They have the nicest staff members ever. Always friendly, patient with help, and quick service. I never had a bad experience here hence why this is my go to UPS Store for packages!”
“PakMail Gretna truly shined during the Christmas rush, providing exceptional service and ensuring my package was handled with care and efficiency. A special shout out to Barbara for her outstanding dedication and friendly support that helped make my holiday season stress-free!”
“So much more than just mail services ✨
Almost want to keep it a secret so the line doesn’t get too long :-) I live in the neighborhood.
It’s exactly the kind of cute quirky local pack and ship place I wish there were more of these days.
Waiting in a corporate Fed-ex center etc is a chore. Pack Rat makes it cute and fun. The line goes by adorable souvenirs & practical things like office supplies. 100% yes to affordably priced holiday colored sharpies!
I found it because my printer was down. It’s one of my new favorite places. Local Nola at its best.
Growing up my Mom always called small businesses with heart and charm “we try harder places”. It’s not glossy, not corporate, it’s adorable and the kind of place we see all too often disappearing here.
I went in low key grumpy & in a hurry, left with a big smile on my face.”
“Brought my daughter to send a very heavy suitcase to college, and they were so cheerful, helping us out. In the end, we decided not to send it because of the expense, and they were super nice about it! These are some of the best people in New Orleans!”
“SonI had to mail an import package as quickly as possible to Dubai in the UAE from my local UPS store in New Orleans. It was stressful for me as it had to get there fast.
Brandon the manager went out his way to help me expidite it . It was going to be complicated because customs had to checkit and it was medication . Brandon kept ip with it for me as the tracking was confusing being in Dubai , many phone calls later from Dubai, Brandon got it done.
His whole crew are always warm friendly and helpful”
“I rented a box here when I first moved to New Orleans, and I'll rent a box again when I come back for the winter (I'm a snow bird). It's a very handy place to come and pick up mail and packages, and the staff is very personable. I live nearby but my neighborhood is known for package and mail theft, so this was a much more secure option.
The store is very community-oriented--I had a microwave to give away and they offered to let me put up a sign on their bulletin board. They printed some documents for me from email, both in color and black and white. There's a little cooler where you can buy cold drinks. You can also ship things, buy postage, buy locally made artist postcards and cards and gifts, and chat with other patrons. Very pleasant.
It's a quaint little shop across from Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop and there's a 10 minute passenger pick up spot right outside the door so if you just need to pick up some mail, it's easy to park---which is a blessing in the French Quarter.”
“The only place I go to for notary services as it is fast and a fair price. And the notary there was kind enough to make sure I understood what I was getting notarized instead of just having me sign off on something without knowing. I highly recommend this shop.”
“My friend came to visit from out of state and ~oopsy~ left SO much frozen breast milk at my house on accident. We found this business on Google and saw it was a one stop shop! They provide the dry ice, they pack it, and ship it! Sam was the lovely woman at the store thay helped me and she was so sweet and knowledgeable. Both my friend and I are so so glad we found this spot! ❤️”
“Always a pleasant experience. As other reviewers said, the line moves quickly, employees are pleasant and patient. Can’t speak highly enough of this establishment.”
“Great place for shipping, very friendly and helpful. They even offered to take a package that wasn't UPS. I will consistently use this place for all my shipping needs as they are more convenient than the post office.”

“We need to print our tickets for the essence festival. I was worried that we wouldn't be able to find a place then we found FedEx. The staff was helpful and we were able to print our tickets for less than two dollars for the three day event.”
“I went inside Wal-mart to Fed Ex office printing & shipping to send a out of state fax. It was $2.50 a page. The service was fantastic,& i highly recommend this place. Kristine was helpful, courteous & polite. Drop in, and you'll see what I'm talking about”
“I had the most wonderful experience with LeShawn! We had run into a small issue with shipping items to New Orleans for a conference and had to have some stickers printed ASAP. I called the store and got a chance to connect with LeShawn, who helped me to find a solution to our printing issue that was simple and saved us some money. She went above and beyond to help me get this issue resolved and got it all printed and ready for me in a timely manner. Would highly recommend this store for printing needs! Thank you LeShawn!!”
“Harlan is very helpful having my poster taken care of, went out of the box by calling other locations to make sure my poster can be printed when there’s unexpected errors happened”

“Matthew was incredibly helpful. I was in a huge rush with the Lyft waiting for me outside and he was super speedy, kind, and cool! I legitimately could not have asked for a better experience. Taylor supported as well.”
“I could not be more pleased with the service at this location! I had 15 heavy boxes shipped here and Quentin went above and beyond bringing them downstairs and loading them in my car. Thank you!!!”
“I had a document that needed to be shipped and I had no clue what to do, soon as I walked in I was graced with nice music and a greeting from Ms. Cameran (sorry if I wrote name wrong) all I said was I needed to ship this off and she did everything, with a smile and politeness and great customer service skills! Definitely will be coming back whenever I need any fedex service.”
“Needed a shipping tube to protect a piece of art I bought. I phoned ahead and spoke with Nancy. She was polite and informed me of the cost. When I showed up to purchase it, she cut the tube to size, at my request, and handled the art with care, making sure it wouldn’t get damaged. Many thanks to Nancy, for the art survived in my luggage. Great customer service.”
“Shalom went above and beyond to help me out in a time sensitive situation to help a family member. He deserves a promotion as his attitude and approach while I was stressed kept me calm and helped me find a solution.”
“Alan and his team was amazing to work with for my daughters senior sport banner, great pricing and ready to go in 2 hours without asking for expired pricing.
It is absolutely beautiful and I will always use them”
