The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the parking lot of The UPS Store. Among the usual boxes and packages, there lay an old, dusty violin case. Curious, he picked it up and found inside a note simply saying ‘Leave it here for someone who needs it most.’ He placed the violin back where he found it and went on his rounds. Later that day, while delivering mail to an elderly lady next door, she smiled warmly and said, 'I’ve been waiting for you.' Turns out, she played that very violin every evening after dinner.

2. One foggy morning, an early riser heading to The UPS Store saw something odd through the mist: a small, furry creature scurrying across the parking lot. Curious, they followed its trail until it vanished behind the mailboxes. Inside, everyone had their own theories—was it a squirrel on steroids or maybe a mischievous raccoon? A delivery driver joked that it was probably just someone’s pet possum trying to sneak in for free coffee. In the end, nobody knew for sure, but everyone agreed it made for a great story over lunch.

3. In the late afternoon, a young boy walked into The UPS Store with a worried expression on his face. ‘Mom said I could get a package here,’ he told the clerk, pointing towards the window where a large box seemed to be floating mid-air. ‘That’s impossible!’ the clerk exclaimed, tilting their head curiously. They approached the floating box and gently touched it—only for it to land softly in their hands. Turning around, they smiled at the boy and said, “It looks like someone forgot to tape it down.”

4. One day, while organizing packages on the loading dock, a delivery driver found an old, dusty guitar case. Curious, he opened it and discovered a harmonica inside—a vintage one, engraved with initials long forgotten. Smiling, he blew into the harmonica, producing a soft, melancholic tune that seemed to carry through the entire warehouse. Later that evening, as customers filed out, they heard the same haunting melody coming from the employee break room. Word spread quickly around town, and soon enough, neighbors started dropping by just to catch a glimpse of ‘the guy who plays that cool harmonica.’ Turned out, it was just a regular delivery driver finding his new hobby—all thanks to an old, dusty guitar case.
