📖 About this office
The Glendale Main Post Office on West Peoria Avenue serves as the primary federal mail facility for central Glendale and the go-to location for most residents applying for a first-time passport or a child’s travel document. Sitting near the intersection of Peoria and 59th Avenue, this full-service USPS branch draws applicants from Old Town Glendale and the surrounding neighborhoods, handling the bulk of Maricopa County’s western passport workload.
Passport acceptance at this location is handled by appointment, so applicants should schedule through the USPS Retail Customer Appointment Scheduler before arriving. The staff witnesses signatures, reviews documentation, and collects both the execution fee and the government application fee. Bring a completed DS-11 form (do not sign it in advance), your proof of citizenship, a valid photo ID, and payment in two separate forms as required by USPS policy.
Glendale’s desert setting means summers bring extreme heat, so scheduling a morning appointment during July and August can make the experience more comfortable. For broader context on passport offices across the state, the Arizona passport guide covers locations and tips for the entire region.
💡 Good to know
Applicants under 16 must appear in person with a parent or guardian who holds legal custody. The execution fee paid to USPS is separate from the U.S. Department of State application fee—bring a personal check or money order for the federal portion and cash or card for the USPS fee. If you need an expedited turnaround or have travel within two weeks, see the full Glendale passport office guide for additional options in the area.
