We received word over the Christmas holidays that our patent has been granted for our one-of-a-kind solution to the

drab #1 selling standard mailbox in America. Proudly Made in the USA, outside of St. Louis, Mo. of high-impact double walled white resin to allow the homeowner endless painting possibilities and seasonal changes. Easy to install with provided hardware over your existing mailbox with attachment. The U.S. Postal Service has designated May as mailbox improvement month and is asking homeowners: Does your mailbox reflect your style or is it an eyesore to the community?

@KMS- not sure how to comment. Must be nice to have a post office that knows you and gives good service.

Just finished reading Stephen King's "Under the dome"
one statement that comes up a lot in the book..."its a small town and everyone supports the team"

When the time comes and we move down to our ranch...the size of our post office there will drop to 10% of this small towns PO.

Every home in America should have this mailbox. It is more than just functional , it is visually exciting.

That's it, and it allows the homeowner the ability to customize with their creative touch all season long. Our carrier loves it and the Christmas Gingerbread House is always a pleazer!!! Have a great day!

Love the idea! Unfortunately, in our n'hood we have rules about what mailbox, color and even flag we can use. The rebel in me would love to move out of a n'hood and do what I want in my yard.

I live in Fl, as you know it gets HOTTTT in the summer. the only thing i have found that will take the heat i planted around the bottom of our mailbox is Four O clocks. They did very well and they come back year after year. I would defn spend the money for one of these mailbox make overs.

Thank you I would love to have one but there are 3 other Mailboxes on the same post as mine so it probably would not fit! The Post is on my property but I have to allow the other 3 households to share my Post! I do plant at the base of the post!
