The Mail Center

I’ve used the Mail Center constantly while I’ve been going to school in Memphis. They have always been friendly and wonderful to deal with. I’m an artist and that means I send off a lot of art and other fragile or weirdly shaped items. They have a good variety of packing supplies in case I don’t have any that fit the artwork, and in many cases they’ve helped me by adding cardboard backing or other materials to make sure it’s super safe getting mailed out.
If you go to Memphis College of Art, you can get a discount there– which I absolutely love, and their cool way of calculating shipping costs has saved me a ton of money too. You can’t go wrong with the mail center.

Excellent service by people who really seem to care about you and your needs.
You can rent post office boxes and buy stamps.

The Mail Center is so much more than mail!!! This will be the second time in a month Marc at The Mail Center has saved me for my marketing material prints. His turn around time was miraculous! All I had to do was email my graphics and he sized everything to make it economical and it was ready by end of day. Crazy awesome! Love! Love! Love The Mail Center.

I stopped in here one day to get copies made on my way to work. I have since been back a million times. It is one of the best places in Midtown. I’m not sure what all services they offer but whatever you need I’m pretty sure they have it!!!’

I’ve sent packages using this store before as a paying customer. No problems. But today dropping off a package being returned with a pre-​paid UPS label for a defective product, I was refused a receipt. I politely asked why and the owner was quite hostile, saying (paraphrasing a bit) «You guys just use me as a drop off, I don’t make any money off you, I’m not giving you a receipt!»
I will not use him again, I’ll gladly go out of my way to use another less convenient location — both as a paying and a «non-​paying» customer.

The Mail Center is a lot more than just a place to drop off your packages. They can also notarize something, assist you with making copies, and according to their website they can also help you sell unwanted items on Ebay.
I walked in needing only two things… a front and back copy of my driver’s license and a place to drop off my pre-​paid overnight UPS envelope.
Rather than having me wait for the self-​service copy machine to warm up, the nice man working at the store (owner perhaps) offered to make the copy for me using the already warm machine behind the counter. «What else can we help you with today?» he asked. I answered, «I just need to drop off this envelope. Will it go out today?»
He assured me that it would and he refused to charge me for the copy. It may have been small gesture but it was appreciated. My envelope made it to it’s Ohio destination by next morning as expected.
Based on the way I was treated as a non-​paying customer, I will not hesitate to give my business to The Mail Center in the future.
