About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store one morning, a delivery driver exclaimed, 'I just delivered a package addressed to myself!' Surprised and curious, everyone in the store gathered around. Turns out, it was a package from his own company, containing some forgotten lunchbox or personal item. With a sheepish smile, he said, ‘Guess I’ll grab that on my way home.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it wasn’t as mysterious as it seemed.

2. At The UPS Store one day, an excited voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Attention all customers and employees—we’ve got a package here that can’t be opened without a chainsaw!’ Everyone rushed over to see the mysterious box. A delivery driver joked, 'Maybe it’s a time capsule from the future!' Finally, after much ado, they found an old man next door who owned a chainsaw. He grinned and said, 'Piece of cake.' After cutting through the packaging, out popped a humongous teddy bear for a regular customer's kid birthday. Everyone laughed and went home happy.

3. At The UPS Store one afternoon, a small dog darted in through the open door and began frantically sniffing around the boxes. Employees watched with amusement as he paused briefly to peer up at the ceiling-high shelves before dashing out again, tail wagging. Suddenly, an elderly lady walked in, glanced down at the little furball, and said, ‘Why, that’s my Jack! He must’ve followed Mr. Smith’s package.’ She bent down to pet him, and everyone laughed as Jack wagged his tail even harder, clearly happy to see her. The employees shook their heads, smiling, knowing another neighborhood mystery had just been solved.

4. At The UPS Store one night, a sign above the counter mysteriously changed from ‘Closed’ to ‘Open for Secret Meetings Only.’ Soon enough, everyone in town started showing up at The UPS Store with secret packages and whispers of clandestine meetings. One day, an old delivery driver asked curiously, 'What if they’re just testing new software?' And ever since then, whenever anyone sees the sign change, they joke that maybe it’s another bug in their system.
