About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store, a regular customer complained one morning, ‘Why does it always take forever for my package to leave here?’ Since then, employees swear they’ve seen an old man in a brown suit rushing packages out the back door after closing hours. One night, a delivery driver overheard the old man whispering into his hat: 'Don’t worry, little package, I’ll get you there on time!' Turns out he was just talking to himself—and his dog, who wore a tiny fedora and carried a miniature clipboard.

2. At The UPS Store, a little boy pointed excitedly and asked his mom, 'Mom, why is that man talking to himself while sorting packages?' His mom smiled and whispered, ‘He’s not talking to himself, honey—he’s just saying hello to each package like they’re old friends.’ The little boy giggled and nodded, understanding dawning on his face as they watched the friendly delivery driver wave goodbye to another package before it was off to its new home.

3. At The UPS Store, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and exclaimed, ‘I just can’t believe how many packages are addressed to “John Smith, Unknown Address”!’ The clerk smiled and replied, ‘That’s because Mr. Smith moved here last week but forgot to update his address.’ A delivery driver chimed in, ‘It happens all the time—next thing you know, he’ll get a package from Mars!’ Everyone laughed, and the old man shook his head with good-natured humor.

4. At The UPS Store, a small dog burst through the front door one afternoon, barking frantically as if being chased. Employees looked on in surprise until they noticed—nothing was there. Suddenly, an old man walked in, scratching his head and muttering something about his mail not arriving. ‘Did you see that?’ he asked, pointing towards the empty hallway. Everyone laughed, realizing it must’ve been just another windy day, sending poor Fido on a wild goose chase.’
