    The kiosks do not count as a verified scan and you wont be able to claim insurance if its lost.

      Really ? What’s the point then? So if you have like 20 packages for customers it’s best to wait in line all the time ?

      @w.8329 if you want to be able to claim insurance if lost or stolen, then yes. I've just started dropping them off if they are under a certain value. Wait in line if they are over a certain value.

    I wish the Post office I work at had these things... If this comment gets to anyone I would like to say that my vehicle is u as usually full so it gets pretty hard for us to do pick ups for home businesses in the rural areas... It gets pretty rough to do alot when we have to use our own vehicles... It delays our deliveries at big offices and If y'all can do that for us we'd greatly appreciate it ❤️❤️ help us, help you all ☺️

      I always bring my mail in. SSK sucks sometimes and IS slower depending on location, now I make 1-2 trips DAILY minus Sundays lol. If I go to the distribution center 15 mins away and use the SSK it’s processed MUCH quicker. If I go after hours to the now nearest location that sends the package to that same distribution center and they have a SSK with collection times of 12:45 and 5 PM, there’s no movement or scan in until it usually reaches the actual distribution center and departs it the NEXT time, also homeless dudes chillin in the lobby last night about 1k worth of product was dropped off in the box lol this thing is solid and you would rip your fingers off getting in it so I DOUBT although with a wire hanger or something anything is possible lol anyone is stealing it. Now when I go during business hours to a local branch (conveniently open during my work hours …. luckily my job is chill lol but come on) if there’s a line out the door, I’m using the SSK that has been moving quick rather but I really love to go to the distribution center same day, 8:55 PM with prepaid postage and have a clerk scan it. BOOM receipt (sometimes the SSK only does email receipt which is fine) you KNOW the clerk has it, and the most I have ever dropped off to a clerk was 17 and no one behind me. Done before their shift at 9, I hand Express first Priority after. Sometimes other branches SUCK and a package is delayed which is that locations problem, some times USPS is bad for a week for everyone in the USA. Overall you guys have not lost any packages of 1500+, sometimes a bitch ass delivery driver will say a dog is in the way or be petty, things get held back / delayed etc etc. overall USPS is pretty good. Cheapest rates for sure free packaging can’t complain thanks for the service man

    What places can you go to that have these? The closest post office that I frequent doesn't have this, and I could really use this cuz I've recently gotten into online selling and many of the things I sell are big and bulky.

Rinse and repeat customer emailing me I DONT SEE ANY UPDATE WHATS GOING ON?!!!!!!! lol then they buy again. Whatever you spent $250+ for $30 worth of stuff… come again
