In Reply to: Mailbox Knocked down! posted by Deere Scotty on July 11, 2014 at 03:59:28:
Originally there was a township road that ran right in front of our buildings so the mail boxes were located there. The county rerouted the county road so that we were the only ones on the township road so it was abandoned by the township. For about 25 years after that the mail man would still come down the same road which was now out private drive. About 10 years ago we were informed that postal service would no longer come down the drive and we had to relocate the box to the county road which left it right in the middle of a curve. The road has a wide shoulder so the box is located about six feet from the pavement. I average about once a year that the box is either knocked down or damaged. I had own blown to pieces by explosives and a couple more times probably damaged by a bat. A couple times by farm equipment but the most is by the snow plow. This past winter is the first one in several years where it did not get knocked down. The winter before it was knocked down three times in eight days by the plow. It must of been a rookie driver that had trouble judging distance on the inside of a curve. The first time that winter about half the boxes in a five mile stretch were knocked down with the first snow.
