US Post Office

Like many Alaskans, the USPS does not deliver to my home, and the location was very convenient for a PO Box when I obtained one at this location. However, they relocated, and the new location is on a busy road with no traffic lights or turn lanes to deal with the traffic at the new intersection. The intersection is now unsafe for all traffic. The parking lot is still unfinished, and in my opinion not safe for business. The new post office is clean and a nice facility. The staff is usually helpful, but a little like the Russian KGB in enforcing there own rules and regs concerning timeliness of picking up your packages, etc. Also, they won't deal with UPS or FedEx so it adds more time to your delivery, on top of the usual delays being in Alaska. They also won't take plastic...can you believe it. What was supposed to be a convenience or service to make my life easier has only complicated it. You can certainly pick up your mail and USPS packages easily, but don't expect any service outside of that.
