Review on Step2 578400 MailMaster Express Plastic by Tony Elliott

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Basic Plastic Mailbox

Basic 3 piece Plastic Mailbox. You will need to purchase a 4 x 4 wood post to set it in and drop 2 feet down to stick into the ground; Buy a bag of cement, dig a two-foot hole, fill it with cement, steam it, stick a mailbox post in it, and in about an hour it's dry and ready to stand there for years. At one point we had trouble fitting the center section into the 4 x 4 wooden frame, so instead of shaving the wood I just took my sharpest knife and neatly shaved some of the plastic edge. Voila, it worked great. I would suggest if you are replacing an old mailbox with old cement underground, avoid the same area and move the mailbox to a new location so you don't hit the old cement when you dig a 2 foot hole. It takes a special machine to grind up old cement where your old mailbox used to be, and you don't want to mess with that. Much luck.
