Mail-N-Ship 4 U is a great place to ship your packages. The storefront is very nice. There’s 15 minute parking so you can always park right out front the door. The owners greet you and the line is shorter than the post office. You can choose between shipping through USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL. They can tell you which carrier will be the lowest rate for your destination and weight. Personally, I print my labels off online and bring them in prepaid for a drop off receipt. At $ 10 a month, mailbox rental is less than half of what the UPS Store on Shillington Road charges too. They sell greeting cards and mailing supplies as well.

Have you ever felt the dread that is anticipation of going to the post office to mail a package out? That overwhelming feeling that, hey, this is going to take my entire lunch and these people are going to be miserable. Look no further then Mail-N-Ship 4 U. The fine folk here(who have recently moved out of that awful location by old-Quiznos/old-Hollywood Video a.k.a. the den where businesses go to die) are attentive, quick, knowledgeable, and experienced. I haven’t spent more then five minutes shipping a package with them. The storefront is organized, the prices are reasonable, they offer shipping with nearly every carrier and have a very easy to operate P.O.S. system which handles every part of the process! This includes packaging fees, insurance, confirmation, international shipping(and all associated claim forms). In addition to this easy experience, they often have the family dog in who’s very friendly. The prices here are going to be more expensive then if you had just gone to the post office and stood in line, but what you’re paying for is totally worth it. If you create an account with them, they actually keep all of your tracking info. No more stashing those long receipts in my truck door. If I need to know something, I can just call them up for a status. And they smile! When was the last time an associate at the post office smiled? Real easy-going folk. For a few extra bucks they simplify the most hectic part of holiday shipping. As someone who ships custom product out regularly, they add peace of mind and that makes the trip worth it.

I went here to ship something and had a terrible experience. The owners appeared to be running the place and were rude. The price they charged me was much higher than it should have been going straight to the courier. I just called the courier and confirmed that to be the case. Looks can be deceiving. They may have looked at my clothes and appearance and immediately thought that I wouldn’t be a source of business. As it turns out, it is the closest facility to where I often work remotely, and I would be potentially using them for quite a bit of expensive courier services. Their loss, I’ll drive 10 minutes out of my way to avoid this.
