Post Offices
“In case anyone was wondering, the post office is open until 5 p.m. Both postal workers are extremely friendly and helpful. I had a very good experience with them”
“Robin and Ashley are fantastic! I love these ladies. They make mailing packages a pleasure. Ashley has gone above and beyond to help me out before. Hands down the best post office I've ever been to!”
“I had a great experience at this location getting my first passport. I arrived about 25min early for my appointment, anticipating a line, but it was quiet and they were able to process my application quickly without any issues. Both of the staff members working there were friendly and helpful. They are clearly doing their best while this location is understaffed and I appreciated it.”
“Staff were incredibly kind, helpful and patient. I was shipping some hot sauces to the UK and the lady behind the desk went above and beyond to help package and price up everything for me. Delighted to say it made it to London in about 5 days! Thank you so much :)”
“God do I miss when this place was 24 hours (current hours below)!!! Wonky, little-known aspect of DC culture, but it was a fantastic convenience that let you shift a key errand til the wee hours with no lines in a fairly elegant setting. Ok, maybe it's not the Ritz, but it beat the loud, cramped options elsewhere. Even though it's no longer open around the clock, it still offers better hours and more competent staff than any other post office I've ever been to. Glad they're still around.
As of May 27, 2025, hours as follows:
Monday - Friday: 9:00 am to 7:00 pm
Saturday: 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
Sundays/Holidays: CLOSED”
“USPS always gets roasted but honestly gotta give credit when it’s good. Clerk #13 (yeah that’s literally what the receipt says instead of a name lol) was amazing. Such good vibes, super sweet and actually made the whole trip feel chill. If every visit was like this I’d leave 5 stars every time!!”

“Definitely my new go to post office. Ms. Jackson made the entire process smooth and was very quick. She was very nice and knowledgeable about what I needed. I also made sure to show her all the reviews about her on Google lol”
“This is my second visit to the Accokeek Branch, in recent weeks. It was such a pleasure meeting, Ms. Hillary. She has a pleasant personality and provides great customer service. Thank YOU Hillary and thank you USPS for hiring an exceptional employee to serve our small community. ?”
“I like this post office. The lady who works there is very nice, I have never had any mail lost and there is seldom a long line. I also like the selection of greeting cards that they have for sale. I noticed several negative reviews and I felt that I had to add a positive one because my experience here has always been positive. I hope yours will be too. Thanks.”
“95% are negative comment .Before I arrived here I was thinking to take sleeping 10hrs but things was changed within less than 30mins checked in and unloaded
Thank you!”
“La Vonya is an absolute joy and light in this world, we must protect her at all costs. I didn’t know my butt from my elbow when I came in but she got me right as rain and then I was on my merry way, happier to have met her and the amazing service she provided!!! Promote La Vonya!!!”
“The staff are always so friendly and respectful. It's a pleasure to visit this Post Office and I'm so grateful that it's my local one. There's never a long wait. Best USPS experience ever!”
“The Longworth House Office Building Post Office is quite simply the best US Post Office I have encountered anywhere. The lines move quickly, the staff is friendly and they always have an abundance of stamps and mailing supplies. Mail is dispatched in the morning and after 4:00 p,m, in the afternoon. Staff will provide a special manual cancellation if you ask for it. The post office is located in the basement of the Longworth Building, but is open to the public. You will have to go through security upon entering the Capitol complex. It is easily reached by tunnel from the Cannon and Rayburn buildings.”
“The mail service is mostly ok, but if I get more than one piece of mail in my box it's all crammed in... like folded..bent... crammed in the mailbox. There's no excuse for that!”
“Had to mail a package and looked up post offices near me and was surprised to find out that there was one so close. The lady working there will is very helpful and I was able to get my package mailed off without a hitch. No crowds at all so you can get in and get out quickly. It is open Tues- Fri from 9 - 1 and you don't have to go on the naval post to get to the post office.”
“Great and quick service. Almost never has a line. All the staff are hard working and friendly. Seems like all the bad reviews are from 3-5 years ago so Im assuming the staff was terrible back then.”
“….and the Customer Service Rock Star Award goes to….Victor, Lead SSA. ???
Yesterday, my daughter and I went to the Ft Washington Post Office for passport renewal services. Victor was so professional, kind, efficient, and knew exactly what he was doing.
The Department of State sent us a letter that her passport renewal application was received, but we completed the incorrect form and provided us with the correct form and instructions for next steps.
Victor greeted us warmly. We had our part completed and Victor immediately knew what to do. What a breath of fresh air. I believe we were in and out within 7 minutes. I told Victor that he was a God-send. I was sharing this experience with a friend and she also commented that she has been serviced by Victor multiple times and the experience has always been phenomenal
Keep doing what you’re doing, Victor! Your efforts are not in vain. God Bless”
“Regular post office, when I came in, was there no waiting line . Servis provides nice gentlemen . I can't complain about thys place. I dont know why there is so much negative feedback.”
“This is the best post office I've been to. The regular woman who works there is great. I'm pissed today because my package was refused due to using FedEx packaging. I mean, really, who cares, so I had to cover up everything fedex and them take it back. Never have this problem with the regular person, but always with new people. 2 more things: 1) this location has always closed at 5, not 5:30 and 2) this place is a mess because of the nasty people that go in there and throw their trash everywhere but the trash can. I see strips pulled off of letters on the floor, boxes left etc etc and it's no one but these trashy customers who would never just toss their trash on there own floor. Or would they. How about we police ourselves”
“Went here today for my passport...I thought the process would take long and be complicated but with the help of Andre one of the employees it was smooth sailing. Andre was patient, well mannered and very efficient. If your at this post office say hi to Andre. Thanks Andre”
“This post office is inside the USDA building, in the sub-basement of the South Building. This building is open to the public, but you'll need a valid photo ID and your bags will be passed through an xray machine. You'll also need to enter at one of the designated visitors entrances, such as the one closest to the Smithsonian metro station. Ask the security guards for directions to the post office once you are inside. Beyond the fact that it's hard to find, it's a post office. Friendly staff, and never a line.”
“I went here because I needed some forms to fill out. The lady at the desk was super friendly, helpful, and quick. I typically don't need to go to the post office that often but if I do in the future I'll probably go here.”
“We came here for a money order and the young woman that was working the counter had it ready for us super fast, tucked away in a little envelope. She was patiently helping an older woman pack her box when I came in who was struggling with getting the most bang for her buck out of a prepaid mailer. I think she might have been the only person working, they're probably super understaffed. She was on her stuff and got me in and out of there quick before going back to helping pack the box. It's a really small post office tho so have patience if you roll in there over lunch time or something, if it gets busy they probably don't have a lot of bandwidth.”
“Very nice and helpful staff who seem to genuinely care to both help you and keep the line moving. The location does need some care from the USPS real estate department and does some renovations in the building. ...at least replace the damaged safety glass.”

“Conveniently located in the basement of Union Station, in between the downstairs food court and entrance to the Metro. They were open on a Saturday morning and I was able to drop off a small package.”

“I had an issue with my mail and Tia helped me resolve the issue. She was patient, courteous, knowledgeable, and very professional. She was very pleasant and refreshing to speak with.”
“Conveniently located within L'Enfant Plaza, this located is a full service post office. The staff is friendly and approachable.I've mailed certified letters and purchased stamps here.”
“Overall, the staff has always been friendly and cooperative. I have lived in Clinton for 20+ years and have never had a bad experience there. The one exception is sometimes there is a very long line - some days are busier than others!”
