USPS Mailbox Requirements
During the development stage of a new subdivision, it is the responsibility of the customer (developers and builders) to provide the necessary mail receptacle equipment. The City of Raleigh does not allow encroachments in the public right-of-way for mail receptacles. The developer or builder may place the mail receptacle in an easement on private property, or set aside a lot that residents of the subdivision can utilize by vehicle or foot to collect mail.
The USPS Developers and Builders Guide provides information on installation requirements.
To find the Growth Manager that covers your specific development’s geographic location, send an email to: delivery.growth@usps.gov, or contact your Post Office and ask to speak to either the Postmaster or the person assigned to assist developers with planning new mail service.
