When picking out a mailbox for our mail posts, the physical dimensions of the mailbox are less important than the actual weight of the mailbox.
Newport, Westbrook, or Charleston Mail Posts:
For these models, we recommend a mailbox that is no heavier than 8 lbs. We have found that the following manufacturers offer a number of mailbox options that will work well with these particular posts:
Metal Mailboxes - http://www.gibraltarmailboxes.com/mailboxes.php?ProductSubType=Traditional%20Rural
Plastic Mailboxes - http://postalpromailboxes.com/plastic-mailboxes/
Dover, Signature Plus, Charleston Plus, and Rockport Mail Posts:
For these models, we recommend a mailbox that is no heavier than 12 lbs. We have found that the following manufacturers offer a number of mailbox options that will work well with these particular posts:
Salisbury - http://www.mailboxes.com/departments/residential-mailboxes/post-mounted/rural-mailboxes/
Postal Pro - http://postalpromailboxes.com/product/the-carlton/
Gibraltar - http://www.gibraltarmailboxes.com/mailboxes.php?ProductSubType=Traditional%20Rural&page=1
While there is no single specific mailbox that we recommend for any of our mail posts, as that is a personal preference, the above manufacturers have a wide selection that many of our customers have paired up with our mail posts and the results are fantastic!
Please note: some of these manufacturers do not sell direct to customers, but their products are widely available online, as well as in many major retailers like Lowe's & Home Depot.
