USPS-approved Multi-family Curbside Mailboxes for Sale

Whether you own a single duplex, multiple apartment buildings, or an entire street of residential units, you must find USPS-approved residential mailboxes for your tenants. Multi-tenant residential mailboxes add curb appeal and are specifically designed to be easily accessible for residents and the local postmaster. At Mailbox Depot, we offer a wide selection of residential mailboxes specially designed to meet your mail delivery needs.

What Are Multi-family Residential Mailboxes?

Multi-tenant residential mailboxes are post and mount systems that look like traditional mail units, though they contain two to five parcel lockers for multi-unit efficiency. Certain units include locking mailboxes for secure access between the mail carrier and residents. Depending on your needs, you may prefer a locking mailbox door.

Multi-family Curbside Mailbox Benefits

Multi-tenant residential mailboxes offer the following benefits:

• Style: Unlike certain commercial mail options for businesses, residential mailboxes come in many styles, colors, and designs to align with any neighborhood or homeowners association requirements.
  
  
• Reduced maintenance: As a property owner, maintaining multiple mailbox posts takes time. You must clear all areas to ensure that the zones surrounding the mailboxes are open enough for carrier access. Multi-tenant systems reduce maintenance requirements and make this process easier.
  
  
• Size ranges: You can purchase two to five mailboxes per mount, allowing for excellent flexibility. For example, with major apartment complexes, you may choose the larger option for optimal value.
  
  
• Security: You may prefer locking mailboxes to keep letters and other mail safe in higher-risk areas.

Regulations for Residential and Commercial Mailboxes

Aside from seeking USPS-approved units, you must meet various requirements for accessibility compliance. Be sure that your mailboxes adhere to the following:

USPS Regulations

USPS requires new construction projects to adhere to 4C systems, including one package locker per five units. If you plan to replace an existing system without major renovations or new construction, you may not need to adhere to this regulation.

The 4C systems also include further requirements on unit size, styles, security measures, and more. If you’re unsure of your property’s needs, we recommend speaking with a mail expert from your local USPS.

ADA Requirements

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that at least 5% of mailboxes per system meet accessibility requirements. The specific requirements and percentage may vary depending on your area.

FHA Requirements

The Fair Housing Act (FHA) also includes accessibility regulations. First, you must place the mount system in a centralized and accessible area, including indoor or outdoor locations. You also must meet certain height and spacing requirements to comply with the FHA, so we recommend reviewing such information before installation.
