I just moved back to Dixon to the house I inherited from my Mom who inherited it from her Aunt. Because they were both disabled, and had only one car they parked in the garage,they had them put the mailbox in the driveway. I lived with them both the last few years of their lives. My Mom would never let anyone park there before the mail ran because she said they wouldn't deliver the mail. Boy, was she right. My son and I just moved in on Friday. Packages had been delivered and were on the porch when we got here. But Saturday morning, the postal carrier failed to put any of our packages on the porch because my son was parked in front of the mailbox. First, let me emphasize, none of these packages could even fit inside the mailbox, so what difference does it make if it was blocked. Secondly, being of a curious nature, i looked it up on the official USPS (United States Post Office) official website whice reads exactly as follows: Mailbox blockage by a vehicle may also prevent the delivery of mail. According to our policy, the city or rural carrier should get out of the vehicle to make delivery if the mailbox is temporarily blocked by a vehicle. However, if the carrier continually experiences a problem in serving curb line or rural boxes where the customer is able to control on street parking, the postmaster may withdraw delivery service. Now since when is one time deemed as continous? The mail carrier was just too lazy to get out of their vehicles, put the mail in my box, if any, and put my packages on my porch! Period! Welcome home to me! read more
