I had an Amazon return, and I usually don’t do lines, so I left. Drove 15 minutes into the UPS store in Leesburg - walked right in - was the only customer - walked out 30 seconds later after being helped. Then I took advantage of the Leesburg restaurants for lunch. Wanted to share so that people are aware of other options to the long wait at The Villages UPS location.

I went there last month to pick up a box that was supposed to be waiting for me there, according to UPS. There was NO line. Just me! But it still took ten minutes to find my box on the computer and in the warehouse. It puzzles me how the super-efficient UPS that drops off things at my house several times a week can be so inefficient at that annex. Of course, the workers at the Lady Lake post office seem to be working in slow motion, too.

An hour wait is an exaggeration. I have seen lines there, but it never took more than about 10 minutes to get served.

As I understood the OP, he drove from the UPS store at Pinellas Plaza to the UPS store in Leesburg. According the Google Maps, that is a 10 mile trip that takes 23 minutes. I do like Popeye's, but I don't think I would drive to Leesburg to return an Amazon package.

This is good information, thank you for sharing.

In my three visits I noted the young women who work at the UPS store on 446A were extremely rude and insisted on making people wait outside in the heat (or the cold), citing the owners request.
