Collection Boxes - Mailboxes for indoor or outdoor applications

Collection boxes are used for both post office and private uses. Collection boxes are a generic term for receptacles, which include outdoor cluster box units, CBU and other pedestal mailboxes that are U.S. Postal Service approved, as well as indoor horizontal mailboxes and vertical mailboxes. These collection boxes are used to pick-up outgoing mail, receive incoming mail, and for payment boxes, as well as other private, non-postal applications. Pedestal mailboxes that are postal certified offer an outgoing mail compartment that receives stamped mail. This receptacle is USPS Certified and is typically described as one in the product line of cluster box units or CBU. Horizontal mailboxes usually have to be altered to handle outgoing mail. A larger compartment, either single high, double wide, or double high, double wide, with a slot is typically used.

Collection boxes are a term that could have many definitions in the postal marketplace. Collection boxes, to one individual may mean the new postal approved cluster box units. Yet, another individual may just merely have in mind a simple variation of an array of pedestal mailboxes choices. Horizontal mailboxes are another way end users define this term. However you define the term, one thing is apparent, and that is we at U.S. Mail Supply are here to help you locate the postal specialty item you are searching for.

Collection boxes are used in private uses for an array of purposes. Many utility companies use collection boxes for payments. Sometimes, a horizontal unit will be used for rent checks. One of our pedestal mailboxes is sometimes used for this application as well. In the future, new applications will include electronic cluster box units which are beginning to be used by libraries throughout the United States. Whatever your private use may be, our representatives are here to assist.

Collection boxes are available with array of options as well. Collection boxes can be prepared for the USPS postal lock, fitted with a private lock, or furnished with another type of lock. Horizontal units that handle outgoing mail are available in an array of powder coat finishes. Pedestal mailboxes used as outgoing or incoming receptacles are available in variety of colors. Available finishes include aluminum, bronze, black, and gold. These specialty finishes typically require an additional upcharge.

Collection boxes can be purchased in multiple styles and sizes. Collection boxes consist of the slot or hopper door mechanism for depositing the goods, and a housing area that receives the goods. Pedestal mailboxes used for this application generally have bigger housing areas to receive the goods. Horizontal receptacles have a greater array of dumping mechanisms to allow larger goods to be deposited in the unit. This allows us to have a multitude of products to speak with you about, assisting you in the selection of the optimal unit for your use.

Collection boxes can be a challenge for our representatives to determine what is ideal for you. Receptacles of this type, with special applications, are common in our business. Therefore, our representatives will qualify you to help determine whether a variation of one of our pedestal mailboxes is suitable, or a horizontal receptacle. Usually, a cluster box unit is not used in most applications. However, it is smart to call to receive some help in determining which of our receptacles is most suitable for you and your uses. Our staff relishes the opportunity to assist you and the challenges your application may offer. We relish your inquiry whatever the size of your future order.
