Size Standards for Apartment Mailboxes
Q: What are the new size standards for apartment mailboxes?
A: On Sept. 3, 2004 the USPS published a final rule in the Federal Register that requires new apartment and business buildings to have larger mailboxes. The rule, effective Oct. 4, 2004, calls for an improved, tamper-resistant box 3 inches high by 12 inches wide by 15 inches deep. The existing vertical apartment mailbox standard of 5 by 6 by 15 inches has been in effect since 1975. (Source: DMNews.com)
