About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Have you ever noticed how quiet it gets in The UPS Store after hours? One night, a regular asked aloud: ‘Do you think those boxes are whispering secrets?’ Suddenly, another voice chimed in from behind the counter: 'No, they're just waiting for their packages!' Everyone laughed, realizing that the boxes were probably discussing whose turn it was next.

2. Have you ever wondered why packages sometimes arrive with strange notes inside? One day, a regular noticed that every letter sent from The UPS Store had an unexpected addition—a tiny folded paper saying ‘Delivered by a secret agent.’ Soon enough, word spread around town, and people started sending letters just for the fun of it. A regular wrote a note reading, 'Your package was delivered by Agent Secret Package #9.' And then a delivery driver found one addressed to him: 'Dear Driver, your next package will be delivered by someone wearing a fedora!' Even the local baker got involved, adding cryptic messages like, 'Your bread is fresh—baked by Agent Bread.' It became such a tradition that everyone looked forward to receiving their mysterious little notes.

3. A delivery driver was dropping off a package one afternoon when he noticed an old man standing outside The UPS Store, muttering something under his breath. As he approached, the driver heard him whispering into his hat: ‘Today’s your lucky day, little box.’ As the driver got closer, he saw that the old man had placed a small wrapped gift on the ground next to his feet. With a twinkle in his eye, the old fellow said, 'Happy holidays from someone who knows you well!' Turned out it was just a neighbor's forgotten present. Moral of the story? Always double-check before leaving anything behind.

4. Have you ever smelled that peculiar scent coming from The UPS Store late at night? Some say it’s the fresh ink of new packages, others claim it’s leftover coffee from their overnight shift. But whatever the reason, that mysterious aroma always brings a smile—especially when your package finally arrives on time, just like magic.
