The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store one morning, an employee noticed something unusual on the wall clock. It seemed to slow down whenever packages were being delivered, as if time itself paused for every package that came in. Curious, the employee mentioned it to a delivery driver who laughed and said, ‘That’s just our old clock—it runs slower when there are more packages than usual.’ A neighbor passing by chimed in with a smile, ‘Seems like time flies when things get busy around here!’

2. At The UPS Store one day, a little girl walked in with her mom and stopped dead in her tracks. She pointed excitedly at the ceiling, whispering, ‘Mommy, what’s that?’ Her mother looked up and smiled, saying gently, 'Oh honey, that's just our friendly ceiling tile.' They both laughed, and as they left, the little girl turned back once more, whispering, 'But Mommy, why does it look like it's winking at us?'

3. At The UPS Store one afternoon, while customers were picking up packages, an unexpected announcement came over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Postman please report to the customer service desk? We have received an urgent message from the North Pole.’ A moment of silence followed, then a delivery driver raised his hand sheepishly. 'That would be me,' he said with a grin. 'Just checking if Santa needed any extra help delivering presents.' Everyone burst into laughter as the intercom crackled again: 'Mr. Postman, your services are no longer required—we’ve got it covered!'

4. At The UPS Store one evening, a curious pug named Biscuit followed its owner into the store. As she signed for a package, he sniffed around and suddenly froze, staring intently at a shadowy corner. Suddenly, an old delivery driver appeared from behind the counter with a big smile. ‘Hey there, little fella!’ he said, bending down to scratch Biscuit’s head. It turned out that every night after closing, the staff left a bowl of water and some treats for the neighborhood dogs who liked to hang out here.’
