Has your mailbox post seen better days? No need to pay someone to install a new one for you. You CAN replace it yourself with this DIY tutorial.
This is the old mailbox post. You can see the termite damage at the bottom.
Purchase a mailbox post kit at your local home improvement store for about $35-40.
Be sure to keep your mailbox mounting brackets to install on the new post bracket.
With a little spray paint to freshen up your existing mailbox, here is the finished look. You CAN do it yourself!

    You can put a fence hollow pipe in the ground, fill with cement, add mail box. Will keep snow plows, tractor mowers, and bandits from knocking mail box post over.
