What visitors are saying
“Do not drop UPS packages here. They open them before sending them and took a return I dropped off through them. When I went to see what had happened because the item I dropped there had t shipped for about a month, he showed me other UPS packages that were dropped off and they were all open… Just drop it off at the UPS store instead. Avoid for that reason…”
