Why Temple ships USPS with us.

Temple has no shortage of USPS access, but a post office line at lunchtime isn’t the same thing as help choosing a service. We’ll tell you when Ground Advantage beats Priority Mail, when a Flat Rate box is the cheapest option on the counter, and when USPS isn’t the right call at all.

Pack N Mail sits near downtown, Baylor Scott & White, the medical district, Crossroads, and the apartment communities along S 31st and Adams Avenue. We’re a local store with a real team behind the counter — not a kiosk, and not a drop box.
