Box To Go

i shipped 2 items at 6.01 pm this monday, march 9^th, 2015, i sell items on ebay, now i have to go through the trouble of calling ebay, opening a case, they charge double what the post office charges to ship aan item under 13oz! i was charged $ 5.36 for an item that normally costs $ 2.68 to ship! i know, i ship items daily from the regular post office, plus, they returned the item to me, with a sticker on it, saying «no such address», and the return postage to me is clearly $ 2.68! thats the amount i shouldve been charged! and i was also charged $ 5.38 for a small book, media mail, which is double the amount i usually pay as well! i will have an upset customer who didnt get their item, he lied and sadi he would stick the barcode, postage sticker to ship to them on the top of the box, there isnt even any original postage on here! the postage on the returned postage sticker says it was shipped less than 24 hrs later, on march 10, 2015! so it was not attempted to even be shipped, and its been a week now, customer i have to refund their money, and noelle, just told me on the phone, i have to «bring it back in», when i am disabled, and its hard for me to get around, and i only run errands over there every week or two. so huge inconvenience! travel time and cost of travel to go back to their location to show them the returned item! why cant i just email a photo of it to them? i will also be reporting them to consumer affairs, and bbb, this is fraud and just bad business! they rip people off, and i would waste over $ 5.00 to bring it back to show him! and i lose again by having to refund the customer their money! they should refund me the total amount i paid of $ 10.74! i am very upset, and will be warning all my twitter/​facebook followers about this place! how rude! dont trust these people! nobody had time to «steal the item»! dummy! return postage says it was the next day! returned back to me, with no original postage stamp that i paid for! now i am worried about the 2^nd item getting to the customer! i just should have waited till the next business day and gone to the regular post office! they dont even provide a pid number! skip this place!

Very helpful. Friendly. Had a complicated shipment (music equipment), they helped me pack it so it would be most cost efficient. Did a great job packing my fragile stuff. Def will go back.

Had to ship a small item this morning.
Noël was very helpful, and suggested an alternative packing/​shipping method that saved me a few bucks.
Parking lot in the back is convenient.
In and out quickly.
Basically the opposite of every visit I’ve ever had to USPS.

Yeah… As the person said before, they charge you $ 1 for each package you drop off that is already pre-​labeled for UPS. Is that even legal? They said it was for tracking, but honestly, I think tracking already comes with UPS’ pricing.
Anyway, I didn’t feel like going anywhere else since I was already there and paid the couple dollars. If you got to an actual UPS store, they don’t make you pay the drop-​off fee.

I stopped in here because I needed a big box to ship some heavy law school books. They were so helpful… showed me which carrier would be cheapest, packed up the books for me, and didn’t charge me for the box. I will definitely be back.

A perfectly adequate shipping store, but a scammy UPS drop off location.
Bring in a box, already labeled, without tape — $ 1.00 tape fee.
Bring in a large box, already labeled, already taped — $ 1.00 large item fee.
Bring in a small box (cell phone sized), already labeled, already taped — $ 1.00 drop off fee, which the guy at the desk tried to pass off as some sort of loss insurance fee.
Just say it up front — You’re going to charge $ 1.00 for me to drop off a pre-​paid UPS shipment.

I’ve been using Box 2 Go for two years now, just down the street from me. Always helpful, always searching for best price for shipping, excellent packing, and nice folks.

These people are amazing. I have used them on a number of occasions to ship unwieldy things, and they always figure out how to safely pack and ship them. They shipped a precious heavy glass light fixture for me that was very fragile, and it arrived in perfect condition. Their packing specialist is a genius!

The guy at the front desk was super helpful. He arranged for me to overnight a huge stack of papers to a rural town in OR for $ 80. They gave me my credit card receipt, my FedEx tracking number and sent me on my way with a smile.

My feelings about this place are mixed. I brought a package here to ship and the price they quoted me (for the cheapest option) was so high I thought ‘This can’t be right’. They brought it down a bit, and they were very nice and helpful (which is great), and I needed to ship the package asap so I just went with it. They did say that the price would be the same at an official FedEx place. With the discount, it was about $ 35 to ship a 6×6×24 7lb box to Sedgwick, KS (ebay sale). I thought it would be around $ 15, and that’s what I charged the buyer, so I was disappointed.
Anyway, I just went onto the FedEx site to check the cost I paid, and I inputed all the necessary info (dimensions, weight, zip code to ship from and to). And I was quoted at about $ 16 for the cheapest option! The guy I talked to did say that the area I was shipping to was remote, and added $ 5 extra because of special delivery to that area, but even if you add that, the cost would still be $ 21ish, not $ 35ish that I paid. So yeah. Even though the service was good, I am not too sure I’d want to go back to this place to pay almost twice what I should’ve.

Boxes are cheaper here than any other close places that I have tried so I would go here first!

They are so helpful and kind at Boxes to Go. ANything you need to ship, they will make it easy to figure out, whether it’s boxing and packaging large items or sending something in a small envelope. nice people to deal with.

I strolled into UPS with a box that needed to go inside a box for a return. Finding a box or a suitable container wasn’t going to happen at UPS as slim pickings were on offer.
So down the road I went to that little shop I keep seeing with the red and white stack of boxes out front saying ‘We sell boxes’. I walked in and my parcel was quoted, packed, labeled and posted within 5 minutes!
The packing materials are included if you post with them.
