About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, a delivery driver parked his truck outside The UPS Store and noticed an odd glow coming from inside. Peering through the window, he saw a regular patiently sorting packages while humming an old tune. Curious, he knocked gently on the door. Inside, the man turned around with a big smile, revealing a stack of boxes behind him. ‘Oh, hello there,’ he said cheerfully. ‘Just finishing up my evening routine.’ The delivery driver blinked, then asked, ‘Evening routine? Sorting packages until midnight?’ The regular winked and replied, ‘Well, you know how it is—gotta keep those packages organized for Santa’s early morning flight!’

2. At closing time, an employee locked up The UPS Store and headed home. On the way out, he glanced back and saw a familiar face peering through the window—only it wasn’t there when he’d left. Curious, he turned around—but nobody was behind him. Just as he shrugged it off, his phone buzzed with a text from a neighbor: ‘Did you forget to close the door again?’

3. After hours, when the last customer left, a regular noticed that the store’s security camera seemed to be following him around the parking lot. Curious, he circled back and pretended to leave through different exits, but the camera never stopped shadowing his every move. Finally, exhausted from the game, he went inside again and asked the night clerk if they had any surveillance issues. The clerk smiled and said, ‘No sir, just our new AI security guard named Max.’

4. After hours, when the last customer left, a neighbor passing by asked aloud: ‘Who leaves a package unattended in The UPS Store?’ Inside, an anonymous voice whispered back: ‘Someone who trusts us with their packages!’ A delivery driver overheard and laughed out loud, then shouted through the door: “Hey, it’s not what you think! We’re just closing up!” The neighbor shook his head and smiled, muttering under his breath: ‘Next time I’ll bring my own package.’
