About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, an old delivery driver parked his truck outside The UPS Store and noticed something odd: every time he left his headlights on, they mysteriously turned off after exactly three minutes. Curious, he followed the vanishing lights inside and found a tiny old man folding boxes in the back room. ‘You,’ said the driver, ‘are turning off my headlights!’ The little guy looked up with twinkling eyes and replied, ‘Ah, young’un, I’ve been doing that for years—just helping out the electricity bill.’

2. One morning, a regular walked into The UPS Store and asked the clerk, 'Do you know why the packages here always arrive exactly on time?' The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Because they’re sent by UPS—what else do you expect?’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in, panting heavily. ‘Hey,’ he said, ‘I just delivered a package that was supposed to go here yesterday!’ The regular laughed, shaking his head. ‘Welcome to life with UPS, my friend.’

3. One day, after closing hours, a delivery driver left a note on the door of The UPS Store: ‘If you hear strange noises tonight, don’t worry—it’s just us sorting packages.’ That night, a regular customer heard some rustling and thought it was just mice until he saw a flashlight beam peering out from under the counter. He knocked gently and asked if everything was okay. A sleepy voice replied, 'Oh, hi there! Just making sure all our packages are sorted.' The relieved customer went home, leaving behind a newfound respect for late-night package-sorting adventures.

4. At midnight, a delivery driver unlocked the doors of The UPS Store and whispered, ‘Today’s packages are cursed.’ Inside, boxes began floating towards each other like dancing partners. A confused neighbor asked, 'Are those packages arguing?', and the delivery driver replied, 'No, they’re just trying to find their matching addresses.' Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another night at The UPS Store.
