About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the lights were off and everyone had gone home, a voice would occasionally come over The UPS Store’s intercom: ‘Package for you… package for you…’ It always stopped right there, leaving employees puzzled but never alarmed. One day, an employee named Alex decided to follow the voice. He found himself in a dimly lit room filled with boxes and packages. Finally, the voice said, 'Package for YOU!' pointing to a tiny teddy bear wrapped in bubble wrap. Alex laughed and took it, only to realize it was Valentine's Day, and his neighbor had sent him a cute little surprise.

2. Have you ever noticed how quiet it gets in The UPS Store after hours? One night, a delivery driver asked himself aloud: ‘I wonder if those boxes can talk?’ Suddenly, one of the cardboard boxes tilted and whispered back, ‘Actually, I’m just waiting for my turn to be recycled!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that late-night silence was nothing more than an empty warehouse’s gentle hum. The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, thinking maybe those boxes had a sense of humor after all.

3. In the early morning, before anyone else arrived, a mysterious package appeared on the loading dock of The UPS Store. It was addressed simply to ‘Someone Who Needs This’. Curious employees opened it and found inside a box of donuts with a note: 'For those who deliver happiness!' Since then, every morning, someone leaves fresh pastries for the hardworking staff.

4. In the early morning, before anyone else arrived, a mysterious package appeared on the counter with a note: ‘For the person who loves packages most.’ Each day, the same anonymous sender left small surprises—a handwritten card or a funny trinket—until one morning there was a tiny box containing a pair of mismatched socks. The manager smiled knowingly: 'Someone’s been spying on our staff meetings,' she whispered.}
