Snail mail/U.S. Mail, how often do you check your mailbox?

[Dan Murphy]

Not really checking the mailbox as such, Informed Delivery is great. I do check ID every day, so know what's coming. We do get some mail every day, often just junk mail. Since the mailbox is next to our front door, very easy to keep it cleaned out daily.

My mail box is right next to my front door. I check it most days. I only get mail a couple days a week and mostly junk mail. My daughter who hasn’t lived her for over 3 years get more than I do. My water and sewer bill are about the only things that get mailed to me.

I was out of town for a week and forget to stop delivery. When I came home I had 3 pieces of mail all junk and none for me.

Like others, I have informed delivery so I always know if there is something important to go out and grab. That said, I do tend to pick up the mail daily. Mail for my condo community goes to a central mailbox that is in the garage of the community. So I walk past it going out to the car or taking trash out, so might as well grab it while I am there. I also walk daily so at some point each day I go right by the mailboxes, so it is not really a special trip.

We're getting older, so we like paper bills which we pay with paper checks. I don't like the idea of anyone, other than us, being able to withdraw money from our checking account .

Now.....get off my lawn!

Once a week, unless Informed Delivery lets me know of something I need to grab more urgently.

I live in an apartment building. Our mail is all downstairs in a big block of boxes. Sometimes I don't leave my apartment during the day since I work from home.

Check it almost every day, we have the community mailbox cluster so it's a very short walk to get the mail. If it's raining hard or if there's snow I'll wait a day or two.
