About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store, every morning begins with a familiar routine—packages arrive, boxes are packed, and customers come and go. But one day, a little boy walked in, stared at the ceiling, then exclaimed, ‘Mommy, look! It’s like a sky full of tiny airplanes!’ The clerk smiled and pointed up too. ‘Why, son,’ she said gently, ‘those aren’t planes—it’s just our ceiling tiles reflecting the light.’ The boy nodded thoughtfully, then ran over to his mom and whispered, ‘Never mind Mommy, it’s not magic after all.’ And so another mystery was solved at The UPS Store, where everyday wonders await those who know where to look.

2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, an old man started visiting The UPS Store every day. He carried a large canvas bag and left without saying a word. No one noticed until one morning he vanished mid-sentence while explaining something to the staff. Finally, someone asked the manager to check the store’s security cameras. They found only the old man smiling broadly from behind the counter, holding a package addressed to ‘The Most Patient Employee.’

3. At The UPS Store, customers often noticed something peculiar. Every afternoon, right after the mail arrived, a small dog would appear from nowhere and dash towards the counter, eagerly sniffing packages. It turned out that every day an elderly neighbor brought her tiny terrier to help sort through the packages. She claimed he had a sixth sense for finding the correct addresses. Although no one ever saw her arrive or leave, it became a charming part of the daily routine until one day she accidentally locked herself in the bathroom during closing time. The little dog heroically led a delivery driver straight to her cries for help.

4. At The UPS Store, every day starts with a familiar announcement over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, your packages are here!’ But lately, one particular message has been making customers smile—a friendly reminder that ‘If you left your package somewhere else today, don’t worry; it’s probably already delivered.’ One day, an elderly lady came in frantically searching for her missing cat. The staff assured her that 'he's probably already delivered,' prompting everyone to laugh. Turns out, her furry friend had indeed found his way into the store's waiting area and was now happily snoozing on someone's desk.
