The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while waiting for his package, a regular noticed something peculiar: every time the mail truck pulled up, the entire building seemed to hum in perfect sync with its engine. Curious, he approached the driver and asked if their truck was tuned specially. The driver laughed and said it was just good old-fashioned resonance. From then on, whenever anyone came to pick up or drop off packages, they’d joke that maybe the building had a secret love affair with trucks. And so, amidst laughter and goodwill, ‘The UPS Store’ became known not only as a place where envelopes met envelopes but also where hearts found harmony.

2. While dropping off a package one afternoon, a regular asked the staff: ‘Why does it always take so long to get my tracking number?’ A delivery driver chimed in with a smile: ‘It’s because your package is on a secret mission to visit every country in the world before returning.’ The staff laughed and said, ‘That sounds like something out of spy fiction!’ And ever since then, whenever someone asks for their tracking number, everyone at The UPS Store starts whispering conspiratorially—just to keep up the fun.’

3. One day, after school, a little girl walked into The UPS Store and asked curiously, 'Mister, why do all those boxes look like they're talking to each other?' With a smile, the clerk replied, ‘They’re not talking, honey—they’re just waiting for their special deliveries.’ The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then ran outside to join her friends playing tag. That evening, her neighbor overheard her explaining excitedly, ‘I learned today that boxes don’t talk—only people do!’

4. In the early hours of dawn, a delivery driver pulled up outside The UPS Store. As he unloaded packages, he swore he heard someone whispering 'Package, please...' from inside the empty building. Curious, the driver peered through the window and saw only boxes stacked neatly. Suddenly, an old package box moved slightly on its own. Startled, he called out, ‘Who’s there?’ A voice replied softly, ‘Just my package, please!’ Turns out, it was just a neighborhood cat playing with a discarded cardboard box.
