Shovel Your Mailbox

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

We got a lot of snow this last weekend and some more will be coming this week. Shoveling is a back-breaking job that comes with the snow, but we have to do it, right?

Well, when you do have to Shovel, don’t forget about those who bring you Holiday cards, checks, ebay items and such. If you have a curb-standing mailbox, take another 5 minutes to clear out the snow around the box.

If we get another 100+ inches of snow, the mailbox will be pretty set in and the postal worker will have to get out of their vehicles to put mail in your box. It might be a slight annoyance, but if he/she has to do that to 200-300 houses in a day, it will definitely slow down the mail delivery.

It only takes a couple more minutes to do and helps so many people out. So don’t forget to clear a path for your mail carrier.
