The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does everyone in line here look so serious?’ A regular customer leaned over and whispered with a smile: ‘They’re not serious—they’re just waiting for their turn to ship something important.’ The delivery driver nodded knowingly and chuckled, realizing that life’s most dramatic moments often happen behind those plain brown boxes.

2. At closing time one day, an employee noticed something peculiar: every time he locked up, a mysterious voice from behind would say, 'Don't forget your package!' Curious, the next morning he left a note saying, ‘I already did.’ But later that evening, as he was locking up, the same voice returned: ‘Did you really?’ The employee laughed it off until his colleague teased him about being haunted by a talking package center—until they both realized it was just their new part-time neighbor, delivering friendly reminders.

3. One afternoon, while stocking shelves, an employee found an old, dusty package labeled only with the words ‘Claimed By Nobody.’ Curious, she opened it to discover… nothing but a single, tiny key. She kept the key in her desk drawer for weeks, wondering what door it unlocked. One day, a delivery driver came in asking if anyone had claimed a large box addressed to him. Turns out, that was the very same box! They both laughed, and now they’re friends who occasionally swap coffee and stories. The key? No one knows where it disappeared to.

4. One day, while restocking the supply shelves, an employee noticed a strange box. It had no label or markings, just a single note inside reading: 'For The UPS Store, with thanks.' Curious, the employee opened it carefully and found only a small package of sticky notes. On each was written: ‘You’re doing great!’ Soon, everyone in the store was receiving these anonymous notes throughout the day. Turns out, it was a delivery driver who wanted to boost morale. The end result? A more cheerful workplace—and some very grateful employees.’
