To find a UPS Store near you, enter your ZIP code or address in The UPS Store’s Find a Store tool at theupsstore.com, or in the UPS Locations finder on ups.com, which also shows UPS Access Points, Customer Centers and drop boxes. Each listing gives the address, today’s hours and the latest drop-off times for Ground and Air packages.
The UPS Store has about 5,500 independently owned locations across the U.S., according to its franchise disclosure figures for 2026. Because each store is run by a franchise owner, hours, services and prices vary from one location to the next.
How Do You Find the Nearest UPS Store?
The two official tools cover slightly different things, so pick the one that matches what you need to do.
- The UPS Store Find a Store (theupsstore.com): Lists only The UPS Store franchise locations, with each store’s hours, phone number and services such as printing, notary or mailbox rental. Use it when you need packing help or business services.
- UPS Locations finder (ups.com): Lists every UPS drop-off option, including The UPS Store, UPS Access Point locations, UPS Customer Centers and UPS drop boxes. Use it when you just need to drop off a labeled package and want the closest or latest-open option.
Searching “UPS Store near me” on a map app also works, but map listings can lag behind holiday hours and closures. Check the store’s own page, or call, before making a special trip with a heavy box.
What Types of UPS Locations Will You See Near You?
A near-me search usually returns a mix of location types. They all accept UPS packages, but only some can pack, print or sell you shipping on the spot.
| Location type | Who runs it | What you can do there | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| The UPS Store | Independent franchise owner | Ship with or without a label, packing, printing, mailboxes, notary and other business services | Packing help and full-service shipping |
| UPS Customer Center | UPS | Drop off packages and pick up packages UPS is holding for you | Late drop-offs and held-package pickup |
| UPS Access Point | Partner retailer, such as CVS | Drop off prepaid, labeled packages; pick up some held packages | Quick drop-off on errands, often with longer hours |
| UPS Drop Box | UPS | Deposit small prepaid, labeled packages and envelopes | Small packages outside business hours |
Our guide to UPS locations and Access Points explains each type in more detail, including which retailers host Access Points and what they accept.
What Services Does The UPS Store Offer?
The UPS Store is a full-service shipping and business center. Its core services fall into a few groups, though each owner decides exactly what a given store provides.
- Packing and shipping: Staff pack items for you, and The UPS Store offers a Pack & Ship Guarantee on items its staff pack. You can ship UPS Ground, 3 Day Select, 2nd Day Air, Next Day Air and international services.
- Drop-off for prepaid packages: If your package already has a UPS label, you can hand it over at the counter.
- Mailboxes: A UPS Store mailbox gives you a street address, rather than a P.O. Box number, that can receive mail and packages from any carrier.
- Printing and documents: Copying, document printing, business cards, signs and binding.
- Store services: Notary, shredding and faxing at many locations.
What Are UPS Store Hours Near You?
There are no standard UPS Store hours. Each franchise sets its own schedule, so one store may close at 6 p.m. while another a mile away stays open later or opens on Sunday. The store’s listing in either locator shows today’s hours and its last pickup times for Ground and Air.
The last pickup time is the one to watch. A package dropped off after that cutoff still gets accepted but won’t leave until the next pickup, which can push a Next Day Air delivery back by a day.
Holidays add another layer. UPS doesn’t pick up on its holiday closures even if a store opens, so check the UPS holiday schedule before dropping off anything urgent around a holiday.
Does The UPS Store Charge More Than Shipping Online?
Usually, yes. The UPS Store sells shipping at its own retail prices, and packing, materials and other services are extra. Our breakdown of whether The UPS Store charges more than UPS walks through why.
You can avoid most of that markup by buying the label online first and using the store only for drop-off. With ParcelPath, which is free to use with no subscription or per-label fee, you get up to 85% off UPS and up to 89% off USPS. You don’t even need a printer: ParcelPath’s UPS Mobile Barcode lets The UPS Store scan a code from your phone and print the label for you.
To see the difference for your own package, compare UPS and USPS prices in the ParcelPath rate calculator before you leave home.
Is a UPS Store Your Only Option Near You?
No. If you only need to hand over a labeled package, a UPS Access Point or drop box is often closer and open longer than the nearest UPS Store. A UPS Customer Center, attached to a UPS facility, can have a later drop-off cutoff than nearby retail locations, so check its listing.
If you’d rather not leave home, our guide to scheduling a UPS pickup covers the options for having a driver collect your package. And if your plans change after you’ve printed a label, here’s how to cancel a UPS shipment before it’s picked up.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find a UPS Store near me?
Use The UPS Store’s Find a Store tool at theupsstore.com or the UPS Locations finder on ups.com, and enter your ZIP code or address. The UPS Store tool lists only its roughly 5,500 franchise locations, while the ups.com finder also shows UPS Access Points, Customer Centers and drop boxes. Each listing shows the address, hours and last pickup times.
Can I drop off a prepaid UPS package at The UPS Store?
Yes. If your package already has a UPS shipping label, you can drop it off at the counter of The UPS Store, a UPS Access Point or a UPS Customer Center, or put a small package in a UPS drop box. Drop it off before the location’s last pickup time if you want it to leave the same day.
Are all UPS Stores open the same hours?
No. Every UPS Store is independently owned and operated, so each owner sets its own hours, including Saturday, Sunday and holiday hours. Check the store’s listing on the store locator for today’s hours and its last Ground and Air pickup times, because those cutoffs decide whether your package ships that day.
Can I print a shipping label at a UPS Store?
Yes. Most UPS Stores can print a label you bought online, and with a UPS Mobile Barcode you just show a code on your phone and the store prints the label for you. That lets you buy discounted shipping online, then use the nearest UPS Store only to print and drop off the package.
