is it illegal to move a community mailbox?

April 162010

we have a community mail box for 8 or more houses, its all locked up so we have all our own keys. Our neighbors unscrewed it from the sidewalk this morning and were going to move it down the street a few feet. Isn’t that illegal?

Why would you want to make a Federal case out of this. What is a few feet going to make. I would guess the guy has a good reason to move it, why not ask. May be it makes it hard for him to get in his drive or mow the lawn, could be a hundred reasons, why not just ask.

why you locked my mailbox?

April 142010

I’am worried.please help me,open my mailbox.

Hello
Good advice already given – change your password, and sign(log) out when you finish using it, if some one has access to your computer.

How do you open a jammed mailbox?

April 102010

Our cul-de-sac has one of those big plastic boxes where everyone’s mail is put and then you have to have a key to open your slot thinger. Someone thought they were funny and fooled around with ours and now our key won’t even go into the lock. What should we do? Do we contact the authories or US mail service? Do we just call a locksmith?

You call the postal service. Messing with a mailbox "any mailbox" is a felony

Oasis Jr Locking Mailbox Vulnerable to Fishing and Prying

This video shows the Oasis Jr “security” Mailbox by Architectural Mailboxes being fished by hand and pried open in just seconds with a screwdriver. The hopper door accepts packages but also fishing hands. If security is a priority in a your locking mailbox purchase, you may want to consider another choice.

how long can can my leasing office not give me a mailbox key?

April 82010

Ive already moved in but the previous tenants did not return their key so the post office has to change the locks. This should’ve been handled before I moved in, Im not getting any mail. Ive already had issues with the leasing office but I really like the apartment. What can I do? Is there any legal action I can take?

I would call the corporate office of the property management company that owns that property.

What’s the turn around time for mail delivered to a p.o. box instead of my home mailbox? Are locks changed?

April 62010

Will I have to wait longer, or will I receive the mail faster since the p.o. box will be located at my local post office? Also, if I receive mail that requires a signature, will the post office hold it until I pick it up in person, or deliver it to my home address?

Last but not least, does the post office change locks between customers? Thanks

You may get your mail earlier in the day if you have a PO Box. Normally all box mail is sorted before 9:00 AM. So if your letter carrier delivered your mail to your house at 1:00PM you would get it 4 hours earlier. Many post offices also have 24 hour lobby hours, so you can retrieve your mail at any time of the day. If you have a letter that requires a signature, they PO will leave a slip in your PO Box, and you can retreive it at the window during regular business hours.

Does anyone make a wall mount mailbox with a flag for outgoing mail?

April 42010

We’re looking for something we can attach to a brick post. We don’t want one that locks.

This is what I found, maybe you can leave it unlocked if you don’t want to use the lock. http://www.outdoordecor.com/product_detail.asp?item=MWM15054&?ESRC=GOOGLEBASE%20zmam=24881136%20zmas=1%20zmac=2%20zmap=M%20WM%2015054 Good Luck!

apartment mailbox locks?

April 22010

Hey I was wondering where can I get you know those mailbox’s with a keyhole that only the postman can open to install in my apartment and what is it called.

I live in montreal any help would be appreciated.

In the USA, I’ve contacted the local Post Office to install those for security reasons. Tenants generally have to pay $10 at start-up for a key, but the USPS pays to install the unit itself. Hope this helps!
