Pedestal Drop Boxes


1) Can I have my Pedestal Drop Box customized?

Yes, you have a variety of options available including the number and location of doors, colors, slot sizes and pedestals.

2) Can I have my Pedestal Drop Box painted in any color?

Yes and no. We do not paint our boxes but rather we use a more advanced method to protect the metal know as powder coating. Powder coating is superior to painting and it much more durable and long-lasting. And yes, you can custom order any color.

3) Are your Pedestal Drop Boxes certified by the US Postal Service?

No, they are for commercial and private use only.

Commercial, Residential, Home, Rural & Locking USPS Approved Mailboxes

What are some of the requirements for a USPS approved residential, locking, home & commercial USPS approved mailboxes?
The United States Postal Service has certain specifications that they require all residential mailboxes to follow in order for them to deliver mail to it. Here are a few things that a residential mailbox must follow in order to be USPS approved:

Curbside mailboxes must be of one of three sizes.
Small mailboxes (T1) are five inches wide, six inches tall and 18 ½ inches long. Medium mailboxes (T2) are six inches wide, seven inches tall and 19 inches long. Large mailboxes (T3) are eight inches wide, 11 ½ inches tall and 22 ½ inches long. Curbside mailboxes need to have their post located six to eight inches from the curb and 42-46 inches high measured from the lawn to the top of the mailbox. Posts with a vertical arm cannot extend six inches from the curb.

A mailbox that can lock must have a large enough slot to be able to hold the family’s daily mail volume. The USPS will not open a locked mailbox and will not accept a key. Private carriers can deliver newspapers in receptacles if the receptacle:
Does not touch the mailbox

Does not cover a mailbox flag or interfere with the USPS delivering mailDoes not extend past the front of the mailbox when the door is closed.
