Temporary Post Box

[Mikey]

Any recommendations for stand alone post boxes for after we demolish? 
 

Thanks

No, but top tip is to place it well out of the way or works and vehicles as some day it'll squished by a 8-wheeler. And on the outside of your fencing so postie can actually get to it. We got a basic metal one from B&Q or the like and screwed it on to one of the main gate posts at the entrance. Turned out to be too close.

I have one of these and it's still in use and looks as good today, as when it was delivered 2 years ago.

 

It has a point of delivery bar code that Royal Mail and delivery companies can use to prove delivery, but as with most things delivery people don't know that, so they will still put a sorry you weren't home ticket in the mail box. But a good sized box.

Why not just get the mail redirected, and a sign saying so on site.

Yes, a metal box that will shed the rain, and a plastic storage box next to it for parcels....this must have a  lid that will shed water, and drain holes.  You will  find that drivers will happily drop a packet into a box full of water, 

 

A nice address sign next to it may help....a bit.

This only works for Royal Mail deliveries I think?
