My mailbox fell off the wall!

by Tricia

I’ve mentioned a few times over the last year that I need to get a new mailbox for our house, but yesterday it became clear that I’ve got to replace it soon, preferably this month.

Yesterday as I took the few pieces of mail that we’d received out of our mailbox it completely fell off the wall! That hinge that’s always acting up had caught on my hand and as I lifted out the mail the whole box came away attached to my hand and the mail I was trying to pull out of it.

No more of this! It’s time to get a new mailbox.

I took a look at the various mailboxes at Mailboxixchange and I was pleased with their selection. Our current, broken, mailbox came with our house so I’ve never really shopped for a mailbox.

Mailboxixchange carries the full line of Whitehall Mailboxes. Within that line of mailboxes you can choose from Personalized Mailboxes if you’d like. You know, ones with your monogram, your house number or even your house number and street name on them.

We live on a street with a long name so if we decided to purchase one of their Custom Mailboxes I think I’d just get our house number on it.

Along with the variety of styles that they have to choose from I also like that Whitehall mailboxes are cast from recycled die cast rust free aluminum. The metal is poured into a mold and then undergoes a substantial amount of pressure. This means that the mailboxes are lightweight yet made out of extremely dense metal that will withstand years of use.

Our current mailbox is a wallmount mailbox inside our enclosed porch. It’s very convenient to collect our mail – especially during the winter months. I might however, take a look at post mounted mailboxes. I’ve always liked the look of that type of mailbox and a post mounted mailbox might look nice. I’ll have to think about it.

If you’re looking for a new mailbox take a look at the selection at Mailboxixchange.

Need a new mailbox for your home or business?

by Tricia

If you’re looking for a new mailbox for your home you might want to take a look at the fantastic selection of mailboxes at mailboxixchange.com.

They are distributors of high quality mailboxes of all kinds with over 1500 curbside decor and mailbox products from which to choose.

If you own a business you might want to take a look at their commercial mailboxes. You can choose from standard horizontal mailboxes, high security mailboxes, cluster mailboxes, courier mailboxes and many other styles suited to the commercial field.

Myself, being a home owner, I prefer to look at the lovely residential mailboxes. Where I can choose from wall or posted mounted single mailboxes, column mailboxes, curbside decor and a number of other mailbox or exterior related items for the home.

If you need a new mailbox pop on over and see if they have a style that suits your needs.

Personalized housewarming gifts

by Tricia

Have you ever visited the online store Roland’s Housewarming Gifts?

The company originally began as a source of house closing gifts for real estate agents and it’s grown over time as a source of gifts for the public.

I think this site is the perfect place to find housewarming gifts. You know when someones just moved into their first home? You want to give them something that will help them make their new home their own. This often takes the form of some kind of personalized gift. Well, you can find all kinds of gift items to personalize at Roland’s housewarming Gifts.

For example they have some lovely personalized doormats to chose from, as well as address plaques that can be personalized, custom door mats, address signs, ceramic address plaques, beautiful crafted crocks which can also be personalized, house address signs, birdhouses, cookie jars, planters, mailboxes and other unique personalized gifts.

This is yet another site that I’m going to bookmark for future use. Check it out.
