“Today has been really stressful and anxiety inducing-- bit of a mess. But when I go in, the gentleman here was so unbelievably kind, calm, patient, understanding, and helpful. Those other reviews really weren't kidding. They're so nice. Wish I lived closer so I could go more often.”

“I was shocked to actually want to give a post office a review. Let alone a great review. There is a young gentleman whom was very courteous and funny. He was very efficient and polite. That was the last thing I was expecting in a post office.”

1951 McConnor Pkwy, Schaumburg“Lovely staff always. I accidentally dropped off a package in the 24hr drop box with the wrong label on it. Oh no! I came in when the post office opened to hopefully correct my error. The staff member (I forgot her name) was kind enough to go through all the packages to find mine. There were a lot... I had shipped four separate items, and she got them all for me. I found the one with the wrong label, and was able to put the correct label on it. Then shipped it off! This was totally my mistake. So I greatly appreciate all the help I received. Thank you!”
“I had the pleasure of working with Gale on a package of mine that was having issues being shipped from my post office. She followed up with me everyday on updates and eventually got it worked out to be delivered. She was so great to work with, almost would'nt mind if another package was delayed going to her location! haha. Thanks again Gale!”
“The customer service is impeccable, knowledgeable and courteous. The negative reviews are posted by self-centered morons that don't understand how the post office works.”
“Service can be slow, but there is one worker here I'd like to commend! He's a tall guy who's helped me twice with shipping packages and was very patient, especially since I was super unfamiliar with the process. I appreciate his friendliness in an environment where customers & employees alike tend to be on-edge or standoffish.”
“This post office is my favorite, as long as you go through the week. If you go on saturday you will have opposite experience. The lady that works on the weekend does anything she can to do as little as possible. Through the week the employees are so nice and make sure to put the tracking, shipping labels and or postage on my packages themselves ensuring it is done right, weekend lady makes you figure it out and then gets rude when it isnt how she says its supposed to be and says cant be sent that way. I even watched her make a woman black out and rewrite the address because it was "upside down" as if they keep your packages neatly stacked and dont just throw them around. Im pretty sure on that rare occasion they need to turn or flip a box to read address ?? will never visit on a saturday again if i can avoid it.”
“I went 5/7 to do the paperwork to get my son his passport. Michael was there to help. I noticed that he was like that with everyone that came in which was a great thing to see as not all USPS workers are nice( I have experience first hand the unwelcome feeling) .Thank you Michael for being kind!”
“Went to send a package from here and it was phenomenal that it got delivered earlier than expected. The lady working there was really nice (loved her hair) and was able to help with what I needed.
The only negative thing here is that they really need more than one person working at the office. Services are slow because of this.”
“5- Stars for counter service as Moung was lovely, kind, and cost conscious of the best rate to help me send a package.3-stars for the out of service self-kiosk for the last 3-4 days as I needed to wait in line when it's much easier for me to send my own packages with the kiosk.Overall, clean location with friendly postal workers when needed.”
“We are so thankful for this facility! We had another post office cancel our passport appointment an hour before. One call to this Lake Zurich location and Ivy was ready to help! They had an opening and saw us the same day. We can’t thank you enough. Processing was pleasant and photos were easy.”
“My apt has a broken mailbox -picked up my mail from post office asked if todays mail would be in there -he told me yes -got home, it wasn’t. Went back later in day to see if it was there. The supervisor was in the front so the man directed me to her since he didn’t want to check… SHE WAS THE BEST! Went above and beyond she called my mail lady to see if she had mail for me and she did -she took my number and is calling me when she gets there, I am beyond impressed. She could’ve brushed me off but made my day because I really need this piece of mail today va waiting til Monday! Thank you so much”
“Jessica was FABULOUSLY helpful. I was worried about shipping a flute and she was so calm and quick to help me with a smile and patience explaining the different shipping options. If all postal workers were positive/cheerful/ready and helpful like her- so many people would find themselves walking out with a smile each time they went to USPS.? ???? 5 stars, because this is the best service I’ve ever received at any USPS.I don’t remember names easily, so I went back in to see her name tag as she helped someone else in line. I hope her boss knows what an asset she is to their facility- she had a warm welcome for everyone who passed through the door, as the sole front desk employee this Friday afternoon.THANK YOU TREMENDOUSLY JESSICA, for helping me get a package ? on its way to NJ. ?? I’m so delighted I went to this post office today! ?”

108 W Schick Rd, Bloomingdale“When I first walked in I was helped by a woman who was so rude to me I've never been there before and she offered me no help or information and let me just stand there not knowing what to do and then another woman came forward and her name was Bess and she helped me thoroughly and sympathized with how co fusing the return was. Bess is amazing and she is the reason I'm leaving a 5 star review! Thank you Bess”
“Great location, if one wants to mail directly instead of via local mailboxes. Usually not crowded, patient and helpful staff; sometimes busy at holidays or weekends but reliable. Nice variety of stamps available plus reliable service. Got solid advice from helpful staff recently on mail security and potential check fraud and unusual mail delays. Ideal place at slow times to get answers and informed answers at on USPS certified mail and tracking packages or letters.Front and side entrance are OK. Now-gone parking in back was a huge plus, though.”

255 N Buffalo Grove Rd, Buffalo Grove“OK so it is a post office so things wont be the fastest but the place is clean the staff works hard and you get your stuff done. I also like the drive by mailbox if I want something to go out right away”

440 W Colfax St, Palatine“I've been to this location a few times and have always had a great experience. Everyone has always been kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. I think a lot of the bad reviews stem from people being frustrated and/or not having the most pleasant attitude. I feel like the respect and politeness I've shown to the workers has always been returned to me. Special thank you to Octavia for being so helpful on my most recent visit!”
“My package was there when they were shipped from overseas and it took a couple of days for it to move on but I don't blame them because from what I can tell on the reviews all the locals think positive of it and helpful, and the reason why the review is so low at 1.4 is because there's short-handed not enough staff in that small town.”
“I’ve been taught that people do have time to write a review on Google when they are mad. Don’t rely on Google Reviews when you are in doubt where your package at. Mine still a normal time processing, within 24h. Anyway using usps for international shipping so this one still quite fast!”
“I experienced best service from this post office especially passport service is very fast and no waiting line ( with appointments)staffs are very kind and informative.”
“Had a good experience knowing that other locations are usually so bad, the employee was very pleasant and you can tell that he was new. My wait time was okay, the only thing that made me upset is a customer who was behind me who took my place and went to the counter pretending she didn’t see me, she probably felt entitled because she is a regular customer there.”
“Love picking up here, quick and efficient. Staff is friendly, if you are. I’ve seen people come in with a nasty attitude, and got it right back lol so come in nice. I do expedited shipping, so I’m in and out in 15min. 10/10”
“As someone who likes getting things done quick the process of picking up my package was done swiftly and without hassle. Also the staff in the building were super nice and helpful with getting my package.”
“An actual functioning post office that is far far better than the location on Lee St. I’ve sent out packages through this location for years now and have not been disappointed once.”
“To those international customer wondering their package, here is a glimmer of hope while you got anxiety from all the bad reviews from this place as a blackhole. Not the best time taking 5days to processed an item, but at least it went through.”
“I just went to this USPS location to mail my passport renewal and was assisted by Sheri who was extremely kind and helpful. She helped review my documents to make sure they were complete and walked me through what to expect with the renewal process. She made sure I was aware of my tracking number and how to obtain assistance if I need anything or have any issues. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would recommend this USPS location for your passport and mailing needs. Thanks, Sheri!”
