How Do You Install a Mailbox Post?

The first thing you need to do when installing a mailbox post is get a 4” x 4” x 7" piece of pressure-treated lumber and install it two to three feet into the ground. Use cement to hold it in place, then simply install one of Royal Crownes mailbox posts on top of it! Ensure once you have the mailbox post in the ground that the mailbox height meets USPS standard s, otherwise you might need to head back out to adjust the height a bit! If you need help during any of the installation any of our dealers would love to help you out or point you in the right direction, so reach out today!

Can You Put Cement Inside a Mailbox Post?

If you’re replacing your mailbox post because someone damaged it, it can be tempting to try and come up with new ways to ensure nothing happens to the new post. But while a cement post filled with cement can help protect the post from damage, it’s dangerous and illegal in many areas. Before you fill up your mailbox post with cement you need to check out the local laws and reach out to your postmaster for further guidance.

How Deep Should You Install a Mailbox Post?

At a minimum you should install a mailbox post two feet into the ground, but if you can install it three feet down you’ll get even more durability. The farther you install it into the ground the more stable it will be during inclement weather and the longer it will last. When installing mailbox posts into the ground we highly recommend using something concrete to help hold it in place before you start covering it back up.

How Tall Should a Mailbox Post Be?

The USPS states that all mailboxes need to stand between 41 and 45 inches off the ground and stand between 6 to 8 inches back from the curb. If you don’t have a raised curb outside your property reach out to your local postmaster for further guidance. You need to install the mailbox post in a way that allows you to install the mailbox itself to the right height, and all the mailbox posts from Royal Crowne ensure you have plenty of space to install them into the ground without putting the mailbox too high or too low.
