“*Read this if you Need to Do Amazon Return with UPS dropoff! *
Found This "Ups Authorized Shipper" today On Waze. Their name is Boxes and Bytes .
Thought I'd give it a try on the way home to do my Amazon return!
Right off the bat Lou was already trying to help me the moment i walked in . He told me it was free to ship and referred me to smithtown UPS store.
Now I'm posting this because not only was he super nice and super patient cause I can be real slow sometimes . .
He told me they will just scan the QR code and take me return. He was being 100% honest and didn't wanna charge a fee for the email. However. I was like Hold Up wait a minute... I've been to both smithtown and brentwood.. and Both times they couldn't scan the QR Code. They also required "email label to a friend" and charged fee for printing.. Now the difference is, which Lou explained to me.. cause I thought this was normal.. they are offical UPS owned storefronts.. they have a contract with UPS and are credited by Amazon Hence the FREE return part.
So this was a revelation for both of us haha.
So long story Short.. If your gonna be paying for Amazon returns even if it's just a few bucks.. Support your local businesses. And save the extra drive cause B&B is right around the corner.
I FOUND MY designated place for returns and I'm super glad about it cause Amazon been screwing up orders left and right.
30 -40 minutes round trip before vs. 10 minutes. Glad I found them today! Thanks for takin the time today Lou! Appreciate you ?
Ps. If your return ain't loading they also have wifi you can connect to for sent the labels. LIFESAVER!”

“This is the best Shipping company I've found in the Tri-state area. They was on time for the pick up it delivered when they said I'm very very happy with their service. I didn't even know they had this Caribbean Shipping services on long Island. Great job guys thanks for your help.”
“As someone unfamiliar with the shipping process, I encountered a very nice staff member here. He clearly explained what I needed to do, making the entire process quick and comfortable. Additionally, the location is easily accessible and parking is convenient.”
“I always come here to send out return packages and the staff are always very kind and efficient. Today I had to do an international return and it seemed very daunting but Caitlyn (hopefully I spelled that right) walked me through the whole process and was incredibly kind and patient. She even checked to see how I was doing on the paperwork while she was helping other customers. Incredible customer service!!”
“I went specifically here due to reviews after being told my save the dates for my wedding were too thick with a wax seal to mail by other post offices. I was so close to having to open every single envelope and do it all over again. Until I went here! The clerk Danielle was so helpful! She made sure I had the right stamp that way it will be hand cancelled and won’t be an issue when mailing. She was so polite and even ran to make sure my postage made it on the truck for the day! I can’t thank her enough! She saved me HOURS of my time and HOURS of my hard work! I will definitely be coming back to Oakdale post office to send out my wedding invites! :)”

“Polite friendly and efficient is all I experience when going to my local UPS store.
They are genuinely courteous and they deal with a decent amount of BS, but stay above it.”

“It was very crowded this visit. The line was to the door. But the associates moved quickly to get each customer taken care. Once it was my turn I was through in a jiffy. And I was returning 2 items”

“Just want to acknowledge a young man named Drew he was the most polite young man I have ever encountered. He is an asset to UPS customers look for good customer service his mannerism exceeds this Ty Drew”
“store Team Member extremely helpful and pleasant to work with. completed my order in far less time than originally anticipated. Strongly recommend Staples for any printing needs.”
“The. Assistant manager was so helpful. I couldn't figure out how to do the qr code so he asked if he could see my phone and he figured it out. I was so grateful for his help. It said error when I cried it. Thank you UPS”
“So although I couldn't put my passport in the mail today here is why I gave 5 stars. The phone system said the bellport post office has a walk in from 8 to 9 for passport applications. This is no longer true. However when I spoke to Ana she was so kind and so helpful. She tried to help me anyway she could, gave me all the necessary info and envelope I need to get it done but they were out of money orders so I have to mail from a different post office. Ana's effort, kindness and helpfulness is what earned the 5 stars. I'm still bummed I couldn't complete my task but thanks to Ana I know I can get it done right later today. Grateful for people like Ana! ❤️”
“Went to the Patchogue Staples because I desperately needed a new desk chair. The gentlemen that I worked with were wonderful, helpful, friendly and so wanted to make sure that I received exactly what I needed. I was so impressed with them because in a time when associates in any retail store really don't care or want to work, these guys were fantastic. Thank you Patchogue Staples.”
“I don't use FEDEX very often. Today I needed help getting a document "overnight " to Florida. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Explaining the process and what I can expect. I will use this location in the future.”

“This is the best post office in my area. Any time I use this post office to send a pkg or letter it gets sent out very quickly and tracks immediately. The people who work there are very polite and helpful. I will not use any other post office for my mail needs.”
“I have to say, these two women today were so wonderful! I was stressed about sending back a wedding gift for my fiancé and I didn’t have the right packaging. They took care of everything for me, taped everything up and put the label on for me- made it stress free for me! I can’t thank them enough!”
“This is a pick up and drop off only. Do not expect them to print out labels or provide packing materials, that is your responsibility if you want to use this site.”
“This post office has a great staff and one of the nicest and most helpful postmasters that I have met in all my years -- keep up the good work!!! I recommend this place to all my friends and neighbors.”
“Since the previous postal clerk left (retired) there has been a big change in this post office. The postal clerk there does not have an attitude and is always willing to help”
“Every time I go in there they workers are having a party, swinging from the lamps, dancing, blaring the music, drinking cocktails. I think I smell weed sometimes too. I usually hang out for a couple of songs and then leave buzzed, I usually forget to mail my letters LOL. Did anyone ever play that game with with the postage scale they are always playing? SO FUN!”
