Winter Mailbox Damage Policy

It is essential for the township to clear the entire width of the roadway of snow and ice to enable traffic flow, facilitate drainage, and provide access to mailboxes after a snow event.

Mailboxes and their posts are the responsibility of the homeowner to maintain.  Please make sure that your mailbox is firmly attached to the post and that the post is structurally sound.
