US Post Office

They are barely open. Someone is apparently always on some sort of break… even during the last hour of their being open. I will avoid having to come here whenever I can.

Anne likes to take longer lunches and strolls in around 12:45pm when it clearly states on the door the post offices lunches from 12 – 12:30 daily. Walked in today to a long line with other fellow frustrated people. Thank you Anne for monopolizing my lunch. We do NOT appreciate your time management at all!

I just want to give a shout out to Martha. She’s amazingly helpful and has always maintained a great professional attitude.(pretty rare in my post office experiences) I’ve been using this post office for years and years and I always hope to see her behind that counter when I walk. Today she went above and beyond and deserves the recognition for it! You’ve got a great employee on your hands MB post office. Thank you Martha! You’re the best!!!

This place is not open on Saturdays like it says here on Unilocal.Also note that the post office on Supulveda in MB is not open until 5 pm like their pickup slips say. Technology has failed me again! I’ll give 3 stars for having a parking lot.

I grew up in Manhattan Beach so I’ve been using this post office for many years. I enjoy mailing things to people so indirectly I also love (the idea of) the post office. This location is small (only three windows and, usually, at most, two are open) and has limited hours (Mon-​Fri, closed by 4). A couple of times I’ve arrived only to find a sign on the door saying that they are closed for a while for lunch because they are short-​staffed that day. While annoying, I haven’t gotten too upset. The same ladies have been working there for years and I find them to be very kind and patient. The parking lot can get busy since it’s small and shares the space with Joslyn Center and the MB Chamber of Commerce but it is usually possible to find a spot. I try to go off-​hours, if I can to avoid waiting in a long line. They are generally pretty efficient, though, so I haven’t waited for too long. My family had a post office box here for many years and never had any issues. The Manhattan Beach Chamber of Commerce is in the same building.

Would give no stars if possible. Small, outdated, filthy, smelly. Only one employee working at any time. And they are usually rude. Go to any other post office!

I live west of Sepulveda so this is great for me because of the location. However, every time I go there, I am amazed again, at just how terrible the service is. I have gone and there was a small scrap of paper taped to the door, it was hand written with a sharpie and said «closed for lunch»??? The US Post Office… closed for lunch!
I have gone in there and there is no one behind the desk. When I called out, an irritated voice responded to just wait a couple of minutes. The line grew and several other people called out (and honestly, not one of the people in line was rude)…each time… same response. When she finally came out 15 minutes later, she was actually annoyed!
Why do I go back? I just hate the thought of venturing out on to Sepulveda when I don’t really need to.
And, hope springs eternal, maybe one day it will be a happy experience. …but if you are doing anything more complicated than a simple transaction… avoid the aggravation.
