If its used for winter delivery I don’t think you need to write on the side you’ll just know.

Near my grandparents’ house growing up there was a mailbox way up high that had “Air mail” written on it.

Obviously a joke……if real it would have the street number, not the winter delivery label.

Do they also have an exterior door on the second floor of houses?

In my town there used to be a mailbox labeled “Air Mail” on the top of a flagpole off a county road. It was there for decades until around 2016 when it got taken down and replaced with a Trump flag.
I miss it.

I love how southerners don’t know what snow plows are.
I used to live in a town that gets on average 400″ of snow. There are plenty of houses up there with snow doors for mid season when your first floor becomes a basement

But do they make male trucks that tall or the mail trucks come equipped with ladders?

I’ve been in the upper peninsula for skiiing. I recall driving through downtown of a small town, and the parking meter tops were just barely above snow-pack level.

In the 90s we had someone in town do the same thing when the mail lady bought a new truck and the PO sent out a notice saying people needed to adjust their mailboxes so she could reach.
I think there were additional tensions bubbling under leading up to that.

About to ask how this works before quickly realizing this is a joke on his/her part.

A couple towns away from me is a similar set up – except theirs has 3 total boxes – 1 at regular height for normal mail deliveries – the second is about 8′ off the ground and says ‘junk mail’ – the third is probably 12′ in the air and says ‘bills and taxes’

Someone in my old neighborhood had this but it said “Air Mail”
