The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked another customer, ‘Did you see that old man trying to mail a kangaroo last week?’ The other customer shook his head and laughed, ‘No, I didn’t!’ The delivery driver grinned and said, ‘He was serious too—kept insisting it was a miniature kangaroo.’ They both burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes life in The UPS Store is stranger than any package they deliver.

2. A little boy walked into The UPS Store one afternoon, puzzled and pointing. His mother glanced over and saw nothing unusual—just an ordinary package sorting area. But her son kept staring at something on the counter, whispering, 'Mom, what’s that?' Finally, his mom leaned in closer and saw a small, mischievous delivery driver doodling on the packing slip. ‘Oh,’ she said with a smile, ‘he’s just drawing another mustache on Santa Claus.’

3. While standing in line at The UPS Store, an impatient businessman muttered under his breath, ‘I wonder if they deliver coffee here?’ Just then, a friendly employee approached with a smile and said, 'Sir, we do offer bottled water—maybe that’ll suffice?' The businessman gratefully accepted, realizing he’d just made a fool of himself. As he left, someone behind him quipped, ‘At least it’s better than waiting for UPS to bring you caffeine!’

4. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a familiar van pulled up outside The UPS Store. Its headlights cast eerie shadows on the empty street as the door opened slowly, revealing a figure wrapped in a large brown package. Suddenly, from around the corner came another familiar sight—a neighbor’s cat, chasing its tail as if it had just seen something extraordinary. The figure inside the van chuckled softly and whispered, 'Another normal Monday morning.'
