danny_galaga:
you know how its done in my town, what about yours? just in the suburb where you live. i think every city CENTRE would be delivered by foot, so just your suburb.

shardian:
I live on a motor route. In my subdivison, there is a mailbox stand on each street that has about 20-30 mailboxes on it. The mail person drives to it, and loads all the boxes with mail in one stop.
Back when I was a kid, I lived in town and the mail person parked their mail truck and walked the street to deliver.

somebody pm saint, texasmame highjacked danny_galaga's account  :laugh2: I crack myself up.

On my street, the mail person drives up to my front lawn, gets out and puts the mail in my mailbox. Excuse my ignorance but how exactly is it done in your town danny.

shmokes:
Yeah, I've got a mailbox next to my front door.  Mailman (woman in my case) drives up and parks her car, delivers the mail to about four or so houses, gets back in the car, pulls forward a bit, gets back out, delivers some mail, etc., etc..

billf:
Mine is similar to Shardian's situation, but our mailboxes are out at the street in groups of 4.  Basically they group my house, the next door neighbor's house and the two house's right across the street together.  The mailman drives the mail truck right up to each grouping and stays in the truck to deliver the mail.  If he needs to drop off a larger package that doesn't fit in the mailbox, he'll then walk it up to the house's front door.
