Highwoods Post Office

Absolutely brilliant service. Visited Mooreside the evening before & was told "Post had finished for the day" ten minutes before closing. The lady at Highwoods was really helpful. Apologies, I initially posted the review for Mooreside here by mistake.

Very helpful ladies on duty. Full range of postal services on offer. Able to post a package to deepest darkest Peru to an uncle of mine. He just loves marmalade sandwiches.

A busy local post-office. Always friendly and helpful.

I deliberately visited Highwoods PO this morning because the parcel I was hoping to send was rather large and one Courier had wanted ny son's Tax ID code in US. No way! I also thought the package size was over Royal Mail limit. Would Highwoods PO be able to assist? Yes, of course. That is where you go for informed, excellent customer service. Though I live in Central Colchester, I am always happy to journey up to Highwoods deliberately to have whatever I am sending get off to a good start. The staff are patient and well informed. Thank you, Highwoods PO for getting it right again!

Now that the Post Office in Prettygate has closed :-( Highwoods is now my favourite Post Office in Colchester. Went there today (Friday 29th July 22) and the female assistant at the counter couldn't have been more helpful - not her fault that a small 800g parcel cost over 13 to get to London tomorrow. They were also well stocked with wrapping, stationery etc. Will definitely go there from now on - who wants to go into a dirty, busy town centre and pay too much for parking etc etc?! Highly recommended.
