Questions & Answers

It is inconsistent for mailboxes and packages to be the same size. Thanks so much. ?

Dimensions are 11'5' wide by 15' high by 24' USPS does not have a larger box authorized. I know because I asked them. I think the box is well-made and a good buy for its price point.

Could you please tell me which Gibraltar post this requires? (A, B, C, D)?

It calls for a D-sized post, as indicated on the box

Does USPS consider this a size that is approved for rural delivery? Thanks a lot?

It is true. Packages up to medium size can be accommodated

What do I have to do to ?

In the end, we mounted a platform mounted on a post on top of a post, and then screwed the post up. A housing project wants us to buy 8 for the project. There are 6 holes already predrilled for securing the pipes

It is possible to mail cinder blocks
5/5

As an example, let's say you want to set up a mail-order cinder block business maybe they're organic or grass-fed. A mailbox that will easily fit one will be needed. The mailbox serves as a solution to this issue. More seriously, it holds most of the items I purchase on Amazon. In this manner, they stay dry, out of sight, and the postman saves a few steps by stopping there. The books my children have from Dolly Parton didn't bend when they were stuffed into the mail box, which is nice too. I spent about five dollars more than I would have for a "normal sized" one so it was well worth the money I spent. There was a slight bend on the bottom right corner of the book. As you can see in the image, there's a slit on the side. I don't really care and I don't think it's serious. Basically all that matters to me is whether or not the latch closes. In any case, I checked, and I found out that shipping a cinderblock overnight from my house to my parent's would be about $197.

This is amazing! I love it! Stunning mailbox! I love it! So they will now be able to put my Amazon packages inside the mailbox, safely out of view
5/5

With the help of Gorilla glue, I glued it to a pillar I made out of concrete blocks and bricks, and then I bought adhesive stickers to write on it. This has been a fantastic experience so far. The new mailbox is a far bigger improvement than the tiny "city" mailbox on our house before.

It is flimsy
3/5

I like the design of this mailbox and it is quite large, which is a plus. Nevertheless, it is not very sturdy. Metal is thin and dents tend to appear after it has been taken out of the box. In addition, the flag is attached to the pole with flimsy plastic. Since the cold weather in Winter tends to weaken the plastic, I do not see this flag remaining on the mailbox for very long. It took me a while to replace a jumbo mailbox with this one, which was made of metal and had the flag affixed to it. As I understand it, I will have to replace this box rather I guess it's nothing to worry about.

Mail with a wet scent! I bought this to replace one same size that served me for more than 10 years until it was Although this mailbox is made of lighter material, I am unhappy with the way the door is made as it lets rain or snow in
3/5

This door does not have a clamp at the top to make it tight fit at all. It leaks like crazy, my mail gets all wet inside. My plan is to take the clasp off the old box and see if I can do something with it. It took me a long time to discover this problem because I had a nice (expensive) address made.

An idea that's too big and not thought through
4/5

Boxes are supposed to meet size requirements at the post office, but this one was missing markers in one crucial place. There is a base of 10 inches I suggest buying a 2x12 as it is too wide and a 2x10 as it They could have included some spacers or made the bottom lip thicker so that the bottom lip would work with It turns out I had to cut down a 2x12 to mount my box. The box is HUGE inside and can hold just about anything someone will deliver to you. Due to my Vine reviewer nature, I get packages almost every day and during the winter my poor carriers are unable to back down my driveway (it is always ice covered), so they have to walk the packages In spite of my inexperience with snow blowers, I decided to give them a break (and they are friendly and almost always deliver my package regardless of my conditions). have repeatedly thanked me for bringing this box to them now and have been delighted with it. The box is of high quality, and I hope to get many years out of it (my last box lasted over Having to make custom lumber was a bit annoying at first, but once I got over it, the rest of the installation There is also one other issue I had to bend up the latch on mine in order to keep it in place.

If you need something really large, this is the box for you
4/5

The "jumbo" mailbox is precisely that, able to store a number of "regular" size packages and mail at the same time. If pressed, it may be possible to get by for 2 or 3 days with a pile of mail. The hinge closes solidly, and it sounds like a "clunk" when the mailman shuts it. You can adjust the red flag screw to make it tighter if necessary. It would have been better had the shipping material been heftier, there are a few light dents on the top, but they can be easily hammered out with a There's no box bigger than this one I've seen. It's a good idea!.

The product is of great size, will last a long time and is very easy to install! With this box, I am able to receive packages while at work due to its larger size
5/5

When we first moved into our apartment, we received mail stating that a package was ready to be picked up I would honk to get the package, or else the carrier would honk and I would have to go outside. Due to our work schedules, we may not be able to pick up the package for a few days. I was delighted to find that the new mailbox fitted very well with the post that previously held my older mailbox. In my rural area, my husband had to mount a board underneath the box for extra support. It fits perfectly at the end of my driveway, which is popular with neighbors. Initially I was concerned that its size exceeded the limits of a rural mailbox, but my rural carrier made it a point to tell us that he wishes every rural resident on his route had one He has an easier time doing his job. It was a great bonus to get free shipping so fast! It's a great purchase, and we are happy with it. Once we replace other mailboxes elsewhere, we plan to purchase from you again.
