Mail Box & Postal

Really great place. They seem to have a healthy business with lots of customers that seem to know and like them. The box rates are better than most, and they provide drop off for USPS, UPS & FedEx. It’s small, but they don’t mind box holders receiving packages — as long as clients pick them up promptly so as not to strain what space they do have. Despite the small size, it’s obviously a big going business that treats customers well.

I love this place! I visit Mail Box @ Postal store at least twice a week. The guys are awesome, great customer service, very reasonable prices. Great selection of greeting cards, nice gifts… I trust them to ship my packaged no delays always guaranteed delivery. Nice to have this store in Sierra Madre. Great job guys. I highly recommend everyone to visit them.

I am in Mail Box & Postal’s store at least 3 to 4 times per month for various reasons. I trust them to ship my packages, I use their document shredding services, and I have used their notary service on a few occasions. Holy smokes… I almost forgot they have the best birthday cards. I find their pricing very reasonable for what I need. I would highly recommend them!

Beware! I called ahead for pricing and timing for a shipment for a camping trip. I was told a 100 pound box would be delivered to Northern California in 2 days for $ 115. Unfortunately, this made me delay a day in bringing the box in. When I actually brought in the 65 pound box (not 100 lb.), they charged me $ 145 for 2 day delivery. Substantially more than quoted for a much smaller box!
Warning: ask very specific questions in advance, if you intend to deal with this business.
I, too, like to support small local businesses, which is why I went there, rather than UPS or FedEx. Be very specific and careful here. :(

I’ll never go to my local UPS or Fed Ex store again. I just happen to live 3 minutes away from this place and never noticed it until today. My scanner broke and I needed to have something scanned and emailed right away. The service is top notch and everyone is very friendly. I highly recommend this place and will return, no doubt. Thank you Sierra Madre Mail Box & Postal for being a lifesaver!

I love the place! They have the greatest gifts, and a large selection of greeting cards.

I adore this place and the folks that work there! I live in Pasadena, near The Paseo, and there are plenty of places that provide the same services that are closer to me, but I choose to go to this store for the stellar service and choices. Thank you Sierra Madre Mail Box & Postal!

BEWARE! I want to say that I totally support small business owners and especially ones in town. Today I had a very sad experience. I go to this store probably 2 or 3 times a week. I send all my business packages from this store. I buy gift cards and wrapping paper there. I am a good customer. The 2 young men who work there are awesome, so it pains me to write this.
Today, the owner of the store wanted to charge me more that $ 200 to ship 40 Christmas ornaments to the east coast. Not FedEx, UPS Ground! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I was really sad because I want my daughter to have them. SO. I went to the UPS store. They charged me $ 50. UPS is going to wrap each one in bubble wrap, and double box them with peanuts. And I also insured them for this price.
I don’t know what this guy was thinking today. I don’t know if he didn’t want to mess with it, or if he really thinks that he should make $ 150 for wrapping up a few things in bubble wrap. Just made me really sad that he would try and take me for that much money, for Christmas ornaments… Wow.

This is one stop shopping at its best! For a little place, it has a lot to offer. Any time I need office services or office supplies, I go there, and they carry it. And the owner and staff are so helpful and friendly.

I really love this little place in Sierra Madre! It’s great to support local business, and the staff and owner are the nicest people around. They offer shipping, mailbox rental, notary, copying services, scanning, document shredding, and sell a decent selection of office-​type supplies. Sometimes, it can be such a relief to receive REAL customer service, instead of being treated like just one of the herd at places like FedEx, UPS, etc. Have been a customer here for years and will continue to be a loyal patron. THANK YOU for keeping the spirit of small business alive!

Though you may find it convenient to do some of your mailing close to home, do yourself a favor and drive the extra five minutes to the Fedex store and save yourself this shops 30% markup.
