I would use amenity=courier for this, maybe a subtag which says something about 
scope (local, regional, national, international) and about kind of shipped 
goods (parcel, letters/documents, medicine, etc.).

The tag in the first proposal wasn't chosen badly, it was insufficiently 
defined. Office is not a good tag for the public facing frontend with counters 
etc.

For shops that offer courier services as a minor part / not primarily, it 
should be a property for the shop, maybe with the carrier in the key, e.g. 
amenity=fuel, courier:UPS=yes?


cheers,
Martin
