Is this at least 48 inches from ground to bottom of mailbox as required by our area postmaster?

USPS regulations require the mailbox to be between 41 & 45 inches off the ground, so I am surprised that the local post office can require 48 inches. Our mailbox sits about 42 inches above ground, but is up on 3 inch curb, so it's 45 inches above the road. If your mailbox sits on a curb, I suggest asking the post master whether you measure from the road level or the ground level on which the mailbox sits. I know the mailbox height is adjustable, and the Hampton people should know if it can be set as high as 48 inches

It is 48 inches from the ground. Just a warning - this is significantly higher than any mailbox I've ever had and the highest in the neighborhood. The postmaster may require it, but it may not be enforced. Get out your tape measure and see what 48 inches to the bottom of the mailbox really looks like and what you have in your neighborhood. I do like the mailbox, but I'm not sure I would have purchased this if I saw it in person simply because it is so much higher than all the others.

Yes..it can be installed at that height. The fancy bit at the bottom of the post can be adjusted up or down by loosening three set screws. I recommend bolting on the bracket so you can set the height and get the post pointing the right way.

There are "leg extensions" in the package to anchor the trellis in the ground. So the trellis measures 90 inches above ground!

i don't think it is large enough for a mailbox, the holes are about 3-4" apart.

The way I understand is you need 1 inch below the bottom of the sending unit. You can call Moeller

It depends on the width of the item you are placing in the mailer. I use it for everything. I have mailed a package as high as 10 inched but when using the mailer for something that high it will take away from the width. If you are using the entire inside surface I personally wouldn't go any higher than say 6 inches just to make sure that the contents remain in the mailer. You can pack it tight but I am not sure of the safety of your shipment. I have shipped very thick items but I did worry and tapped extra just for the support.

48" sounds right? Maybe look at it on the Home Depot site and see how long it says the box is. This is a great tent. Excellent quality.

Probably can pass a package up to 4 inches in thickness. However, if it was any larger a hand could fit down into the box and pull out the mail, which would defeat the purpose of a lock box. [I cannot pass my hand down to reach the mail]. On rare occasions the postal worker will drop a bigger package on my porch. I have been very satisfied, although it is now showing minimal rust despite being in arid So. CA.

Hi Rachel, I bought this for my sons house and he just installed it. he thinks it was 4-5 inches apart if you can wait I will measure next time I am at his house- probably this Friday. What I can tell you is that it is a GREAT Mail box. The stainless steel is of good quality and it is quite sturdy.My husband who is very fussy like it so much he wanted one for our house, unfortunately we have a rural mail box.

I installed mine at 48 inches from the ground up. You can also go to 50 inches and adjust it lower with the chains.

I just measured my platform and it is 12 inches. The letterbox adds another 6 inches.

I agree with the answer below. May have been nearer 48 inches long than 36, but it wasn't heavy.

I'm not sure it is supposed to be buried 2' to 3' in the ground. Mine is buried up to the bar across the bottom and it is still 6 feet tall.

The mailbox is attached to a 4 x 4 post. It's height can be adjusted from 52 to something higher. It all depends upon the height of the post out of the ground.It is a good mailbox and I would order it again.

It's down the football field length driveway in the snow right now...but my guess is that it is closer to the 46" than the shorter height. It's the standard classy mailbox you see in the nice estates...YES GREAT DEAL

Just installed mine today. The top of the post was 24" to the ground. That way the the plastic sits right at ground level without a gap.

My outer ring is 37 inches. Doesn't seem like it has enough give for 48 inches. Mine has 6 leg holes.

My mailbox is heavy gauge metal, approximately 100 feet from the transmitter. It works great.
