I am a bit upset that I cannot insert the annual civil code (paper) into my tenants mail box on an annual basis. I just had a postmaster bring me back all of the civil codes which I inserted. This is a community on private property, I have had a extreme run-in with one of the tenants several years ago and he beat the heck out of me. I was traumatized needless to say and so I really have an issue with delivering this item to tenants doors. I also don’t understand why if I cannot touch mail going in and out of the mail box, what gives postmaster the right to go and retrieve each individual paper, just to them all back to me and reprimand me for doing something so horrible. My tenants weren’t complaining, they knew I was out there inserting this item into their mailbox and besides that, earlier this year the new mailman who was learning this route, took a sharpie pen and wrote on each individual mailbox the address number or house number. It looked hideous, people were angry and appalled that a usps carrier had the gall to do this and was so naive that he didn’t have the ability to read the numbers right off of the home. My numbers were inpossible for Mr. Magoo to miss, I don’t understand why they are so government sometimes and not so much at other times. I believe their privelage is one which is unfair and we should have some say one way or the other.
Thank you for listening.

I’ve noticed that there are colored stickers placed our mailboxes. 1. A white rectangle, 2. A red circle, 3. A black circle (I think it was a circle). What do they stand for? I live in Charlotte, NC?

in winter esp. I would like my mail delivered to my house and not down the lane at a box.
I am to old to go out everyday to get mail this way and liked having it delivered to my door/ handed to me. wish there were some rules about this for the benefit of seniors.

I have a neighborhood cluster box that does not have a drop slot, requiring me to go elsewhere to mail items.

Nobody other than USPS can take or put items in or around the mailbox (attached to the side etc.)
