Since my husband is a part-time rural carrier for the post office, we are more sensitive than most to mailboxes. And some of the styles and sizes of mailboxes are… well, not so hot. Here are some of the wackiest mailboxes I have found on the Internet.
Don’t know what to do with your yard junk? Heck, weld it all together and throw it up front for the mailman to wrangle with!


I wonder why these folks can’t afford to get a nice mailbox…

Will the mailman dare open this for a nice surprise?

OK, where the heck is the door on this thing?!

:-p Bad taste. Most mailmen would cringe to use this one, but I dare say I know a few who probably wouldn’t mind…

This is actually kind of cool. Creepy, but very unique.

:) I’m a married mom of four teenage children. We live in Upstate New York. We bought an old 1855 home and acre property, over 10 years ago. We've been in the slow, agonizing process of living in the home while (trying) to renovate it. When I'm not renovating, I'm a freelance writer and blogger.
We've learned to dig a French drain, plant huge flower and vegetable gardens, wire a circuit panel, install furnace ducting, understand the enigmatic complexities of the plumbing system, and more. It's been *quite* the adventure.

I like the beer case one. I can’t imagine it handles the weather too well, but I have a feeling they have no problem getting a new “mailbox”!

Oh my gosh! LOL I love it! You should start a new feature “Interesting Mailboxes”
Necessity is the mother of invention! LOL It looks like a few people had to invent a mailbox!! Is it really legal to have a cat litter bucket for a mailbox???
