The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at The UPS Store when a delivery driver noticed something odd. A regular customer, always in a hurry and wearing a fedora, had parked his car next to the door—and hadn’t moved all day. As the afternoon wore on, the delivery driver decided to investigate. He knocked gently on the window, but the man inside never stirred. Finally, he called out, ‘Hey, Mr. Fedora, your package is here!’ With that, the customer jumped, dropped his hat, and exclaimed, ‘Oh no, not again!’ Turned out, he’d fallen asleep every time he came for his packages.

2. A sign appeared one day in the window of The UPS Store: ‘Package Undeliverable as Addressed — Please Come Pick Up Your Package.’ Curious neighbors started dropping by, only to discover their packages were intact and waiting. Soon enough, a regular stopped by, confused but intrigued. Turns out his package was indeed undeliverable—because he’d written his own address on it by mistake! Everyone had a good laugh, and from then on, The UPS Store became known for its quirky signs and friendly staff.

3. At dawn, before anyone else arrived, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside The UPS Store: a small bird had built its nest among the mailboxes. Over time, more birds joined in, turning the store’s front yard into a miniature aviary. One morning, a regular customer asked the delivery driver if he’d seen ‘the bird guy’ come in yet. With a smile, the driver replied, 'No, but I think our feathered friends are running the show today!'

4. At sunrise, just as the first customers were arriving, a voice crackled over The UPS Store’s intercom: 'Attention, please collect your packages from last night's snowman.' A regular customer, Mr. Thompson, rushed inside, muttering under his breath. ‘I swear, that snowman was blocking my driveway!’ he exclaimed. A delivery driver shook his head with a smile and said, ‘Next time, maybe build it closer to the road.’ The UPS Store staff laughed, knowing full well that another snowman would appear before winter ended.
