The Shipping Point

I stopped in this evening to ship a hoverboard and was told they were sent an email recently that no one (UPS, FedEx or USPS) was allowed to ship them in the US AT ALL. He then told me that these places are supposed to just refund your money without you returning them. When I asked him to give me a copy of this notification so that I could then argue with the company that told me to ship it back for a return, the worker magically couldn’t locate the email that he oh so recently received. But told me that I could find it anywhere on the internet. Tired from a long work week, I was stupid enough to believe the deception. Or maybe it was laziness. When I did Google said notice later, it was nowhere to be found. The only thing I did find was that they can only be shipped ground. And guess what: UPS, FedEx and the good old post office CAN ship them, provided it goes ground.
If you just have a letter to ship, I’m guessing the guy can do that. Guessing that’s where all the positive comments come from. Anything complicated? Steer very clear of this place. They can’t be bothered to go out of their way, except to dupe someone with a «complicated» ship.

The Shipping Point is my favorite. Everyone who works there is very nice and smart. They take the time to thoughtfully answer questions, not always the case at the post office. They are very efficient and affordable. I love coming here and hope they are in business for many years to come!

I cannot say enough great things about the Shipping Point– I manage a business up the road, and we use them for all kinds of things. Their customer service is above and beyond– they regularly go WAY out of their way to help us out. They even send an employee here daily to pick up all outgoing mail so we don’t have to drop it off ourselves!
Even MORE impressive is the extra services they have added, to print photos, banners, etc. They have been a LIFE SAVER on many occasions when we’ve needed a ton of flyers or a sign at the last minute. They even worked tirelessly on a huge project we did for an Arts Festival at the local high school, a four foot tall «American Gothic» with the faces cut out so students could take pictures in it. It was a super huge task, they cut and mounted multiple pieces of cardboard together to create a TRUE work of ART– it was so impressive, there was a picture of it in the local paper detailing the event!
If you need to ship something, print something, or just want to know if something can be done– choose to go here– you will be a customer for life!

Do I like going to the post office, UPS store or FedEx store? No.
The employees always seem grouchy and I always feel unprepared and on the spot. And I always forget something… like bubble wrap, the box, tape, a pen, whatever…
I had 2 prepaid shipping labels for UPS and FedEx items that needed to be shipped, along with my 3 year old in the car for the ride he didn’t want to be on.
I googled the locations of the nearest offices and they weren’t close. With a displeased toddler in tow, I searched for UPS shipping locations again and saw the Shipping Point. I took a chance, assuming I’d have to pay an arm and a leg for a box and supplies.
When we walked in we were greeted with the friendliest hello. I explained what I needed while my kid found their kid’s nook. To my surprise, for the gentleman to pack my items correctly (I’d fail at this, I’m sure), cost an additional $ 1.25. What a deal.
Aside from their overuse of the papyrus font throughout the store, this place is great and it’s where I’ll go to ship almost everything going forward.

The owners are very friendly and always happy to help. Great service and very fast!

Great family owned business. Super friendly and the customer is king here! Lauren is awesome and always goes above and beyond to make sure your packages get shipped and received on time. I have mail box there, too! They do it better than the big chain shipping places. Support your local owners

Absolutely love this family owned business! Very convenient and everyone is always so nice and helpful. I have never had a problem with my package being lost or undelivered and I’ve been shipping with them since they first opened. Definitely use these people for all shipping/​packaging needs!!!

picked up fedex from holiday inn and package was lost for weekend… took 4 days to ship a package overnight. Go to Fedex instead.

I’ve gone here several times not only for shipping packages, but also notarizing. Their service is quick, extremely friendly and dependable. I would definitely recommend this place.
