The U.S. Postal Service asked people to consider upgrading their mailboxes to one of the “newer larger capacity boxes.”
Every year the postal service encourages customers with mailboxes to consider making some upgrades during Mailbox Improvement Week which is held in May.
“Today’s newer mailboxes are wider and taller to accommodate delivery of items you’ve ordered online and reduce the need for notices left and trips to the Post Office to retrieve a package,” said USPS. Replace your old mailbox with a new package-friendly mailbox big enough for all your mail.
Other requests the USPS made this year were:
- Replacing loose hinges on a mailbox door
- Repainting a mailbox that may have rusted or has started to peel
- Remounting a loosened mailbox post
- Replacing or adding house numbers
