BEGINNING PROJECT
STEP 1 Determine location for mailbox. Using post hole digger, dig a hole
24" in depth. Install treated pine post by burying 24" of the post in the
ground - leaving at least 24" of post above ground. Use level to ensure
treated pine post is in correct vertical position. Stabilize the treated pine
post by rmly tamping down loose soil around post base.
NOTE: Customers are required to
contact the local post oce before
installing the mailbox to ensure its
correct placement and height at
the street. Generally, mailboxes are
installed at the height of 41–45 inches
from the road surface to inside oor
of mailbox or point of mail entry
(locked designs) and are set back
6–8 inches from front face of curb or
road edge to the mailbox door.
