Unfortunately, there are some areas in Britain, I live in one, where any boxes like them put up ,would be mangled within 5 mins.

Image too many of these people , it's evolution in reverse, wouldn't last five minutes on Dead End Street ?

RM's Time & Motion "Brains Trust " don't seem to realise that 1.GB is NOT Holland ,2. collecting bin bags off the pavement is different from putting through letterboxes DOH!!! and yes they'd go for more points .

up here some new builds have letterboxes in the ground floor of stairs
unfortunatly not that many developers do the same.

one new build block of flats i delivered to had all the letterboxes fitted at about thigh height :d'oh!

for main doors i doubt many would be happy with letterboxes so far from the property

When I was in Germany I noticed all the flats have letter boxes built into the front of the buildings and the houses all have them on the gates or built into their walls. Thought it was a great idea, no more abuse for stepping on an inch of grass or getting bitten by mental dogs. Then again the time saved would probably mean they would increase the number of calls on your walk. :hmmmm
