The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store one morning, a delivery driver exclaimed, ‘This box is heavier than it looks!’ And ever since then, customers swear they can hear mysterious thumps and rustles late at night. One evening, a neighbor knocked on the door and asked if anyone had heard strange noises. Turns out, it was just an excited pug named Max, who loved playing with packages left in the store. Since then, everyone jokes that The UPS Store has its very own canine security guard.

2. At The UPS Store one day, a regular customer was printing out documents when he noticed something strange on the monitor. The printer seemed to be whispering, almost like it was laughing at him. Curious, our regular leaned closer and saw that the ‘whispering’ was actually just an error message in another language. The printer was trying to tell him his document had a formatting issue! Everyone laughed, including the printer, which suddenly stopped giggling and started printing normally again.

3. At The UPS Store one afternoon, a small dog darted into the lobby and began sniffing curiously at an unusual package wrapped in brightly colored paper. Suddenly, the package started gently vibrating, as if it were alive. Everyone froze for a moment, then the delivery driver chuckled and opened it. Out popped a tiny toy rabbit, which promptly hopped towards the curious dog. The two animals played together so happily that soon the whole place was filled with laughter. That evening, a neighbor dropped off some cookies for ‘the new friends’.

4. At The UPS Store one night, a frustrated neighbor asked aloud, ‘Why does every package here arrive exactly two minutes after closing?’ Suddenly, an exhausted delivery driver appeared from behind the counter and whispered, ‘We’ve got a secret time machine in the back room!’ But when everyone rushed over, they found only boxes of donuts and a note that said “Don’t worry, packages always leave on time.”
