Celebrating 35 Years of Service: The UPS Store in Carlsbad Village Marks a Major Milestone

On Wednesday, June 18th, The UPS Store in the Village Faire Shopping Center celebrated 35 years in Carlsbad Village with a community BBQ. Guests enjoyed grilled burgers and hot dogs, fun games, giveaways, and a chance to connect with the team that has supported local businesses and residents since 1989.

Owner, Daren Vass, who began working at the store right out of high school alongside his father Rob, has grown the business into a trusted community hub known for far more than just shipping. Today, The UPS Store in Carlsbad Village offers a wide range of services that help both individuals and small businesses get things done quickly and professionally.

In addition to shipping and receiving, the store provides printing, copying, scanning, shredding, and faxing. They offer secure mailbox rentals, passport photos, and live scan fingerprinting. Many people are surprised to learn the store also handles Amazon returns, custom boxing, bubble cushioning for delicate items, and even business consulting services. Whether someone needs color copies in a hurry, documents notarized, or flyers designed and printed, the team is ready to help.

The store’s strong reputation is built not just on services, but on the people behind the counter. Clara, a longtime employee who has worked at the store for nearly 26 years, is a familiar and friendly face known by many regular customers.

Located at 300 Carlsbad Village Drive, Suite 108A, on the lower level of the Village Faire Shopping Center, The UPS Store continues to serve Carlsbad Village with dedication and care.
