Postal officials are asking for the public cooperation in keeping mailboxes, steps, and sidewalks clear of snow and ice, sot letter carriers are able to provide the safest, most efficient delivery service possible. The postal service is asking customers to help keep their letter carriers safe through the following actions: - Clear enough snow from curbside boxes to allow the mail trucks to approach the box, deliver the mail and to drive away from the box without danger of the need to backup, - Walkways should be cleared of snow and ice and allow enough traction to avoid slips, trips or falls, - Steps should be kept clear of ice and snow and good repair so as not to cause injury to the letter carriers or others who visit the customer's home, - Overhangs should be clear and free of snow and ice to avoid injury. Residents who receive delivery to roadside mailboxes also must keep the approach to and exit from the mailbox clear of snow or any other obstacles, like trash cans and other vehicles. The carrier needs to get in and then out without leaving the vehicle or backing up.
