Cluster Box Units Required for Some Developments

According to USPS guidelines, new or renovated apartment complexes are required to install centralized cluster box units for their tenants. Permanent mobile home communities are also required to install these units to allow centralized delivery of mail and packages for residents of these developments. The management of transient trailer park communities and student housing developments, however, are responsible for accepting mail at a centralized location and then delivering it to individual residents or students at their organization.

If your development is required to have a cluster mailbox, you should also consider adding a mailbox shelter. Installing a mailbox canopy will provide added protection for letters, packages and other mailings during delivery and when mail is picked up by residential or commercial customers. Mitchell Metals can provide mailbox canopies designed with your community’s needs in mind.

To learn more about our eye-appealing and functional mailbox shelters, give Mitchell Metals a call today at  (470) 870-7733 We look forward to the opportunity to work with you to select the right aluminum canopy systems for your building needs.

Requirements for Outdoor Cluster Box Units

The USPS has established some rules about the placement and construction of cluster mailboxes and mailbox canopy installations:

  • The location of cluster box units must be approved by the USPS to ensure that these mailboxes can be accessed easily and safely by mail carriers.
  • Most cluster mailboxes must be located within one block of the residences or commercial buildings they serve.
  • The USPS will supply its own master access lock to ensure access for their mail carriers. This locking system is not available for builders or developers and must be installed and maintained by the USPS.
  • Most cluster box units must be located on the right side of the road to allow easy access without requiring mail carriers or customers to break any traffic laws to deliver or to retrieve mail.

“Mitchell’s walkway system cut our install time in half and passed inspection on the first try.”
