Default Snail Mail

Where is your mailbox? Do you have a box at the post office, a box outside of your home in a designated area, do you have one attached to your home, or in your front yard? Do you check your mailbox daily or weekly?

Our mailbox area is near the clubhouse/pool area of the neighborhood we live in. It's a pain when it is raining and I have to fiddle around with the key. I get tons of freebies in the mail so we have to check it daily. The mailman sometimes frowns at me.

Our mailbox is just down the road, about a three minute walk, about 12 lockboxes on each unit...

We go by the mailbox everyday to get home, but we stop about once a week to get the mail....it's mostly bills...so I say "why bother to get those every day?"

I don't think it's a law or requirement.

I have to get mine daily because there is so much stuff in the box....but I used to only go get my mail once a week. That way I only had one day a week to deal with bills and junk mail.

I don't think there's any legal ramifications of checking your mail daily, especially when your live out in the stix like lu does.
