8253A Backlick Rd, Newington“Best post office I’ve been to in the DMV! The gentlemen here are friendly, kind and helpful, finding the right size box and offering stamps because we needed them, and finding the cheapest shipping option for what we needed. In stark contrast to another post office where they are unhelpful and won’t help you find or pack boxes. Thank you for the outstanding customer service!”

12644 Chapel Rd, Clifton“Grew up in Clifton my entire life, 30 years plus. The people who work here and live here. Are some of the nicest, kindest, sweetest human being's you will ever meet. When you come in be polite, and give respect. They will return the favor.”
“This review is for passport services only. I visited the Lorton post office to apply for a passport. I arrived on time for my appointment, but the photo equipment was broken (which happens), so I had to go somewhere nearby to get my photos. That did not otherwise result in any delay in my application review and the solution was easy, so I didn't deduct any stars for that. It might be a problem for those trying to apply for a passport during walk-in hours, so I'd recommend coming with photos in hand just in case.
The postal worker was professional and patient and took great care to make sure the application and supporting documents were all present and correct. The worker clearly had had a lot of experience with the passport process and knew what to do to make sure the application made it through the State Department smoothly. I wouldn't hesitate to go to this location for passport assistance again.”
“I visited this post office today for a new passport, I was helped by Sunisa. 2 yrs ago she also assisted me with my kids passports. She is always so friendly and provides the best customer service. I really appreciate her making the process so easy and pleasant. Thank you Sunisa for all you do!”
“This is my favorite post office. Its small but the wait is usually next to nothing. The staff remembers you by name. Its clean, and the post master is very nice and on top of whats going on. They also adhere to the 2 people in the lobby at a time and masks are required.”

9001 Gunston Rd, Fort Belvoir“Wanted to give a shout out to Javonte and Viveca. Had a packaged that went international and took over several months since customs denied the shipment and had to be returned to sender. During this whole process both Javonte and Viveca reached out and assured they will keep an eye on my package and made sure it gets back to the sender. They have been very helpful and patience during the whole process. Thank you again. ??”
“Today, Saturday, May 20, 2023, I went to send a package to my country and Mrs. Mrs. took great care of me. Alice assisted me and helped me with the shipping, very excellent and thanks to her and her partner, thank you very much.”
“Visited for the first time Saturday morning and my experience with this post office was great Ali was very pleasant and helpful compared to my previous experiences with the post office in Stafford which was always unpleasant.”
“I stopped by to drop off some wedding invitations and Eboni was so nice and patient with me assisting me on the correct postage to have on each envelope since they all weighed a bit different. Thank so much for your help!”
“Ms. Hyman is the best. I will only be returning here from now on. She is so personable and takes time to smile at you and help you in any way she can. She made my day!”
“I've been here twice & I like it there. It's quite & not a lot of traffic. I hate going to the one in Woodbridge, where I have to wait almost 30 mins to get to the desk. Customer service there is nice as well.”
“weighing in on this highly controversial establishment, I was helped by Raj and she was quite polite and swiftupdate: today I was helped by Michael and he seemed polite enough. didn't say much but scanned my package swiftly and honestly that's good by my standards.”
“Was on vacation for over a week, so I held my mail at the local post office. I made it to the post office, and showed my identification to pick up my mail. The service I received was professional, courteous and quick. Thank you, USPS!”
“In months/years past, the reviews listed below represent all customers that had no choice but to use Kingstowne PO - including myself. The staff were rude, angry, and treated customers as if we were interrupting their job, when WE ARE THEIR JOB. This was consistent and not just a singular event.But, I'd like to point out that in the past several months, there is a new Postal Team at the Kingstowne Post Office, and they are kind, courteous, and good natured in their assistance. This is a HUGE IMPROVEMENT from the staffing last year and years prior. Please continue to hire folks like them! I actually walk out each time relaxed and smiling. Love the Kingstowne PO team!!”
“I went midday and there was no line which was amazing lucky me! But more importantly the agent who assisted me was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and efficient. We live nearby and I'm very grateful that are experienced so far has been positive with this USPS store. Hope they are able to keep it up! It really puts a smile on your face when a seemingly inconvenient Aaron turns out to be a smooth and positive experience overall because of good customer service and operational expertise.”
“Every post office is overworked and understaffed, this one is no exception. I came to send out a standard passport application at my appointment time and Surbaya helped me. She was fast, efficient, and knowledgeable about how to work through the application. She knows what she's doing and it shows. And she was patient with me and all the other customers there with us who were also submitting passport applications. Thanks Surbaya for making my visit quick and painless.”
“The service was fine, I like the self service kiosks, I wish all branches had them. My only complaints are that it's filthy, & the supplies need to be restocked in the lobby. The doors in particular look like they've never been cleaned. Standing in line for forms is a waste of everyone's time.”
“I don’t know why this office gets low ratings. The representatives are friendly and I often have thoughtful conversations with them. The lines move fast. I have brought in large and often times heavy boxes to mail and their attitudes are so not change while handling these boxes. I always choose 12 day ground and the boxes usually arrive earlier. Five-star Service.”
“I had a lot of stuff to send (8 boxes total and 3 were heavy dive tanks). Elenor and Judy were fantastic and laughed and made it fun, even when the printer jammed (repeatedly). The location was so easy to get to, close parking and easy access to the counter. I drove out of my way (from Arlington), just to use this location, and I will do so again!! Great job ladies !!!”
