The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when everyone else had gone home, a delivery driver noticed strange lights flickering inside The UPS Store. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw an old man sorting packages with eerie precision. Upon closer inspection, the driver realized it was just an old neighbor dropping off his mail. Turns out, every Wednesday evening, Mr. Johnson came by to use their drop box early. The delivery driver smiled, thinking how nice it was that some people still valued personal service over speed.

2. One morning, an early bird delivery driver arrived at The UPS Store and found that the mail slot was stuck open. Curious, he peered inside—and nearly jumped out of his skin when a small paw poked out from behind the counter. Turns out, it was just a mischievous kitten belonging to a regular customer who left through the back door. The driver gently picked up the tiny furball, and soon the whole office was laughing as they reunited him with his owner. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned The UPS Store, everyone thought of that adorable little surprise.

3. A delivery driver named Alex was dropping off packages one afternoon when he heard someone shout from inside: ‘Hey, wait a minute!’ Alex paused for a moment, then peered through the window and saw an elderly gentleman waving frantically. 'Just hold on!' the man called out. Turns out he’d accidentally left his glasses in the package. After a quick exchange, Alex chuckled as he drove away—another day, another pair of forgotten specs.

4. One day, while waiting for his package, a regular muttered under his breath, ‘I bet they’re working on something secret in there.’ Little did he know that from then on, every time he went to pick up his mail, he’d catch a glimpse of tiny robots sorting letters behind the counter. Finally, one day our hero noticed a small poster: ‘UPS Robot Assistant Appreciation Day – Bring Your Own Snacks!’ Turns out, those weren’t spies or machines—just friendly neighborhood drones having their own party. The regular laughed and thought, ‘At least now I know why my packages arrive so fast.’
