Ahmed is a great guy and Mail Access is a great place — 10 year customer.

They’ve treated me awesomely over the last decade. As a box renter there I consider them my business partner, and they are very reliable as a partner, and very friendly. Strongly recommended.

I feel like an idiot for ever taking out a PO Box with the US Postal Service. Fortunately I read the great reviews on Unilocal about Mail Access.
As everyone says, Amad is a kind and wonderful person, and is incredibly helpful at setting everything up, processing your packages, and ensuring that everything is stored securely. I’m happy to have found Mail Access — has solved a problem of receiving packages in an unsecured building. The city needs more small businesses who provide great service like this.

Ammad has it down. In the 10 years of doing business at this location I have had nothing but a pleasant experience.

Amad is a lovely human and will remember you and your shipments! If you’re looking for a great PO box service (or to mail out anything) — stop by and say hi to Amad.

Great service, hassle free sign up, extremely reasonable rates. On top of that the staff is friendly and helpful. They offer services that other mailbox providers don’t. Anyone looking for a personal or business po box should come here.

Best in the business! Amad’s personal service and encyclopedic knowledge of every package that goes in and out his door is unmatchable. You’d be a fool to ship or receive a package anywhere else in this town!!!

I love, love, love this place! Ahmed and his boys treat us with the absolute BEST care! I have never, in my two years of doing business here, had a bad experience! Ahmed takes such good care of all of his customers and charges the absolute best prices! So amazing!

Absolutely the best place for shipping services. Trustworthy for the best shipping options in US and overseas. Understands how customs works for overseas packages. Just the best. When I moved to the Castro I tried a few different places, but once I landed up Mail Access 5 years ago, have never gone anywhere else.

This is where you should do your shipping from now on. I’m moving to PA from SF for a few months, and I had a TON of boxes to ship. Over the course of several days. Amad apparently showed up early on a Saturday — his day off — to make sure all my stuff was packaged and ready to go, and when I showed up he ran through the charges, etc. I’ll be recommending to everyone I know. These guys know what they’re doing, and they do it better than anywhere else I’ve seen. (Not kidding!)

THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST PLACE for your mailbox, packaging, and shipping needs, hands down.
Amad is incredibly kind and helpful, gives you a good price, and makes things easy for you. Definitely recommend if you need a mailing address in the city, or you need to pack or ship stuff out (print your labels beforehand).

Amad, the guy who owns and runs this place is so incredibly nice, helpful and professional. I cannot say enough good things about him and his business. If you ever find yourself in a situation of needing a mailbox someplace, this is the place to go. They will take good care of you, your mail and your packages. This is the kind of business that gives Unilocal a legit reason to be… so we can make sure good businessmen such as Amad stay in business!

I love this place for shipping and mailing. The owner is as good as they get — friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The post office can be super stressful… this place is the exact opposite. I always go here when I need to send something. Well deserved 5 stars.

After several horrible trips to the post office, I took to Unilocal in search of a better way to ship my packages, and after finding Mail Access I am so glad I did. I was promptly greeted by Amad (the owner) who made shipping my packages a breeze. Amad is very friendly and professional! He handled everything and got me the best possible price (no charge for tape)! After my visit to Mail Access I will never be returning to the post office. No more waiting in long lines and great customer service, 5 stars all the way!

Every so often when I go to Mail Access, all I usually need is a small envelope or package to be sent which isn’t very costly (a few bucks here and there). Amad, the owner is extremely friendly & professional and treats me like I’m his best customer! I’m always in & out of there very quickly.
I will NEVER, EVER go to the post office again, not with Mail Access in the neighborhood!
Go see Amad (he’s the handsome guy always a smile on his face) and he’ll provide u with great service no matter if u r buying 1 stamp or sending huge packages!

You are ALWAYS greeted by first name and with a smile! When it comes to Exceptional Customer Service, MAIL ACCESS sets the bar & is a Win-​Win!!!
Thank you Amad & Rashad for all that you have done and continue to do. You are APPRECIATED & then some!

This place is awesome. I’ve been going there almost every week for some mail task for about 6 months, and the service is fantastic.
Amad, the owner, is genuinely kind, helpful, and goes above and beyond in some small way every time I go in. He helped me with a huge shipping task of sending out about 75 books around the world, and has been great about giving me tips, tape, or recommending the right box for every other thing I’m shipping.
Basically, this place nails it on customer service and array of shipping options. Highly recommended.

Amad and his team at Mail Access are very helpful and experienced in each service they provide. I’ve rented a mailbox, shipped fragile packages, forwarded mail, and even moved a bunch of household items cross-​country — and each time Mail Access had me covered from start to finish, with no problems what-​so-​ever.
I highly recommend Mail Access for all your shipping and mail needs.
