Amazon Locker - Pastel 1302 South 38th Street at Safeway, Tacoma, WA 98418

"One of the worst Locker Locales I've dealt with. This store either hates Amazon, or perhaps just it's customers. Here are a few problems I've encountered with this location: - Store employees congregate there for breaks, hang out and talk on their phones. You get stared down by them when you invade their territory so you have to endure the glares, while listening to them carry on with others. - They make concerted efforts to make your pickup as difficult as possible and will go as far as to blockade the Locker with shopping carts and other obstructions. - In one of the photos I've provided, they blocked the Locker with a string of 30 shopping carts and they were STUCK TIGHTLY together. A customer in front of me had to get help from (myself) and several others to break the chain & gain access to the Locker. - Another tactic they use to thwart access, is to block the Locker with huge, heavy steel sandwich signs. I've seen this twice, had to move one once and they are a lot heavier than they look. I have reported this a few times, and received very little interest when doing so. You'll note from photos that it's in a semi-hidden part of the lot, so you'll encounter random homeless people, loiterers and EMPLOYEES on breaks there. Show up at the wrong time of day and you'll have to walk that gauntlet to get to your goods."

"Fairly safe locker and decent location. It is well lit, and I have included pictures at night time."
