Can/How can we get individual mailboxes for our units in our townhome?

Posted on February 28, 2010 by admin

We have a community of 14 townhomes in Mountain View, CA wondering if anyone is aware of the policy/process of moving away from community mailboxes in a townhome to having individual mail boxes for each unit.

You cannot
The postal service puts them there like that because it is a more efficient way to deliver the mail.
I guess you could ask your local postmaster, but don’t hold your breath that they will change it and the guy will enjoy walking to each house when he can go to one main place and put the mail in.
Cluster boxes are the norm for most newer developments.
