About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store one morning, a delivery driver grumbled under his breath, ‘I’ve seen every state on these packages—except North Dakota!’ Then an old lady walked in with a huge box and asked for shipping advice. With a twinkle in his eye, the clerk quipped, 'Ma’am, I can ship you anywhere except maybe your own mailbox!' Everyone laughed, including the delivery driver who finally found someone from North Dakota.

2. At The UPS Store one day, an employee noticed something peculiar in the return envelope bin—a tiny, handwritten note that read: 'Dear Santa, please deliver my package here.' The employee chuckled and decided to take matters into his own hands. He quickly wrapped up a small toy from the store’s display and placed it inside the envelope, along with a heartfelt note: ‘Dear Santa, thank you for delivering our packages!’ A few days later, a regular customer picked up the package, smiled warmly, and whispered, ‘Merry Christmas, UPS Store.’

3. At The UPS Store one afternoon, a customer growled into the phone, ‘This is the third package today that’s been delivered to the wrong address!’ The clerk calmly replied, ‘Sir, it happens when our friendly neighborhood delivery driver gets confused by all these streets with similar names.’ A soft laugh followed as the customer shook his head and said, ‘I’ll just trust you guys next time then!’

4. At The UPS Store one night, a worker scanned boxes until her eyes felt like they were glued shut. Suddenly, she heard a soft humming from behind. Turning around, she saw nothing but empty shelves and dim lights. All of a sudden, an old man’s voice whispered, ‘Need some help with those packages?’ She jumped, then relaxed when she saw just an elderly neighbor standing there. They chatted for a bit, and before long, she realized it was almost closing time. With a smile, she said goodbye—only to turn back and see him still standing in the shadows, humming softly as he disappeared into the night.
