What are the dark green mailboxes for in urban area?
In many urban areas I see dark green mailboxes but there is nowhere to slide mail in. What are they used for? They have the markings of the US Postal Service.
I believe that they are used as lock boxes for letter carriers. It's a place for letter carriers to drop off mail they have collected so that they don't have to carry all of it while they complete their routes.
