Is it possible to remove the newspaper hooks and use this mailbox without them?

The newspaper hooks are packed inside the mailbox with the hardware to hang it. Use of the hooks is optional.

Yes. The hooks are screw-attached to the inside of the box giving you the option of not installing them.

I believe you could. This is a great mailbox, great look, great size. Newspaper could fit inside as well

As long as the wood platform is slightly smaller than the bottom inside demenisons of the mail box it should work. Just fasten with two screws on each side thru existing holes in the mail box

There is no "mounted newspaper holder". It's just a mailbox. The Amazon site has several pictures that show the details. Flyers and larger envelopes have to go through the rather narrow slot behind the upper door and can easily clog up the passage which will prevent normal mail from getting into the mailbox.

No, I have a letter box by my front door that was slightly crooked so I popped the letter box off to straight it out and it removed the paid and a chunk from the drywall. This is the stuff they use to attach spoilers and body trim panels on cars it's so tough.

Yes but it can be disabled: there is an allen screw on the bottom of the box; you can remove and put it in the other direction so that it is flat on the outside.

That is exactly what I did. I had an existing wooden post that was in rough shape and the arm was falling off of. I sawed of the post below the arm and put this mailbox over it.

Only if the fence already has a feature meant to mount mail boxes of this type. Otherwise you will have to get creative.

Mine is installed against a wall, not on a post. A newspaper will jam the slot open possibly if pushed in from one end. It will not drop down into the box. It is intended for regular mail. It might be best to add some sort of holder under the unit or possibly lay the paper on top if the unit is fastened to a wall.

No, you will need to dig a new hole and set the post in concrete. Best looking mailbox on the street though.

There are 2 holes thru the back of the mailbox that hang with the screws included.

No. It will probably be broken if you use this bubble mailer just by itself. Even if you used a box, and knowing the Post Office, it will probably end up broken.

No, I tried and there is nothing on box. If you are mechanically inclined you might be able to get it off without damage. Or you could cut off holder with metal cutter if you don't care about looks.

Yes. The black screws can be loosened such that you can take the hooks off. They can also be reversed but generally it'll be much easier the way it's displayed.

really not a good idea to put your outgoing bills , personal financial correspondence , in a mailbox with the flag up ; great invitation for the unscrupulous to steal your stuff . but the answer is no , just a mailbox , no flag .

No. you cannot remove mail when top is locked. you must unlock, lift top. then remove mail. if u only have a magazine and letters, the mailbox is wide enough. any news paper ads r folded in half.

Not really. You would need to attach a base to the 4 x 4 to screw the mailbox to along each side of the mailbox. The base would need to be a couple of inches shorter than the mailbox so the door will clear the wooden base. I use a piece of 1x12 plank cut to fit the bottom of the box and attached to two pieces of 2x4 screwed to the 4x4 post. The mailbox is screwed along the two sides to the 1x12. Don't forget that the whole needs to be a couple of inches shorter than the mailbox bottom.
