The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store, a regular once asked with a smile: ‘Why does that delivery driver always wave so enthusiastically?’ Nobody knew for sure, but everyone started noticing. Soon enough, it became a friendly joke among neighbors: whenever someone saw the enthusiastic waving, they’d say, ‘Hey, look who’s happy today!’ And every time the delivery driver passed by, he’d wave even more wildly, as if trying to prove something. No one ever did figure out why—maybe it was just his way of saying hello.

2. At The UPS Store, a delivery driver once asked curiously: ‘How come every package I deliver here ends up being twice as heavy on my way back?’ It turned out that a regular customer kept slipping small packages of his famous homemade cookies into each outgoing parcel. The delivery driver never suspected anything until one day he received an anonymous note: 'Enjoy the treats, but don’t gain too much weight!'

3. At The UPS Store, a delivery driver once noticed something peculiar one morning. As he opened the door, a faint humming sound filled the air—like a thousand bees buzzing in unison. Curious, he followed the noise and found it was coming from an old filing cabinet. Inside, dozens of tiny packages were stuck together like a miniature city. It turned out that a regular customer had accidentally sent his neighbors' packages to The UPS Store instead of the post office down the street. Everyone got a good laugh when they saw the delivery driver carefully sorting through the chaos.

4. At The UPS Store, a delivery driver once found an envelope taped to the wall. Curious, he peeled it off and read aloud: ‘Dear Sir/Madam, please deliver this package… to yourself.’ The delivery driver grinned, shook his head and muttered, ‘Now that’s what I call creative!’ He carefully placed the envelope back where he found it, smiling as his colleague walked in. ‘Hey,’ she said, ‘did you see that note on the wall?’, to which he replied, ‘No, but I bet it was another neighbour trying to avoid paying for postage.’
