Hey! You just solved a long standing puzzle at my son's house. He and his wife bought a house about 8 years ago and their mailbox is a small box inside of a big box with concrete filler in between. We didn't know what that was all about. Now maybe we do.baymule said:Tx DOT here will not allow solid mailbox posts, at least on the major highways. The state boys don't like to see pipes, old plows and various other things that people run into and cause damage or injury. That being said.......... use a regular post, but put a large mailbox with a smaller mail box cemented inside it. That's just enough to give a jolt to the mailbox whackers.
It would probably feel pretty much like running into a telephone pole, tree, or a guard rail.digitS' said:I don't know . . .
what would it be like to hit a 50 pound block of concrete sitting 4' off the ground on a wood post . . .
if you are in a car that runs off the road?
