How do apartment building residents get their mail? Do they have mailboxes in apartment buildings?

Question

Or do they go to their local post office?

Answer 1

There's usually a little covered area that has all the mailboxes under it. They look like PO boxes do in the post office. Little doors that open with a key that the apartment complex gives you.

Answer 2

Yes, typically there is either a bank of mailboxes in the foyer or perhaps out in front of the building they have a huge box with a door for every apartment. The mailman has a master key to open all of them at once to put the mail in.

Answer 3

Im sure they have mailboxes in the buildings, but you can also get mail from your local post office too.

Answer 4

It depends on which building you move into. Some have mail boxes in the lobby--especially if there are a lot of suites in the building. Some townhouses have door to door delivery, while others have a big box at the end of the drive. Some apartment buidlings have door to door delivery. If you are leery about having mail delivered to a box outside, or in the lobby, open up a postal account at an outlet near by.

Answer 5

From what I have ever seen, they go either to the lobby, or the entrance hallway, and there are the boxes, just as the post office has , with the box number displayed, and not necessary the names. The boxes have slots to where the letters can be slit.

Answer 6

They have mailboxes residents have access to.
