About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the parking lot. Among boxes and packages, someone had left an old, dusty violin case. Curious, he opened it during his break—and inside was a note scribbled in pencil: ‘Play me if you dare.’ Intrigued but cautious, he took the violin into the store. Later that day, while helping a regular with printing, he decided to give it a try. To everyone’s surprise, including his own, the instrument produced a heartwarming melody. From then on, whenever customers needed a smile, he’d pull out the violin for a quick tune—turning The UPS Store into the neighborhood’s unofficial music hub.
2. In the early afternoon, a little girl walked into The UPS Store with her mother. As she approached the counter, she pointed excitedly at one of the packing stations and whispered, ‘Mommy, look! It’s dancing!’ The clerk smiled and looked over, but everything seemed normal. Just as he was about to ask if everything was okay, the packing station suddenly stopped moving. 'See?' the little girl giggled, 'it just needed a rest!' Everyone in the store burst out laughing, including the delivery driver waiting in line next to them.
3. A curious pug named Max followed its owner into The UPS Store one rainy day. As the clerk scanned packages, the little dog kept sniffing around an old brown box marked ‘Top Secret’. Suddenly, it started barking excitedly and wouldn’t leave until someone opened it. Finally, a curious employee decided to open it. Inside was just a wet newspaper and an umbrella. Max happily took them both, then turned to the clerk with a satisfied wag of his tail. From that day on, whenever it rained, Max would visit The UPS Store for free umbrellas—much to the amusement of customers and staff alike.
4. At lunchtime, an employee heard an unusual announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, please pick up your flying saucer package.’ Confused, she walked around the counter and asked what it meant. Turns out, a delivery driver had accidentally typed in ‘flying saucer’ instead of ‘flat screen.’ A regular customer, who’d ordered a new TV, laughed so hard he almost spilled his coffee. The employee grinned and said, ‘Welcome to The UPS Store—where packages sometimes land from outer space!’
