Best Answer

Yes! The United States Postal Service is more than happy to hold your mail for between 3 and 30 days. Ask your carrier for the appropriate form. You can specify whether you would like the accumulated mail delivered after the hold, or whether you'd like to pick it up at the post office.

Can you call your mail woman mail carrier?

Female mail carriers are called "letter carriers", or "mail lady", or "mail carrier". If she is nice looking and you're feeling daring, call her "mail babe"....just kidding. All letter carriers like to be called by their name, so get to know your carrier and call him/her by name.


Is there any law against a mail carrier holding a disabled persons mail?

Mail carriers are supposed to deliver mail; it's not (with a few exceptions) the carrier's decision to make as to whether to hold it or not. Off the top of my head I can't think of a good reason a carrier would hold a disabled person's (or anyone else's) mail if they hadn't been asked to. There's no law against the USPS holding mail if specifically requested to. and carriers are not required to deliver mail if they believe that doing so would put them at significant risk (if you've got a dog loose in your yard, the carrier doesn't have to risk getting bitten; this has nothing to do with whether you're "disabled" or not and is purely a matter of the dog being an apparent danger).

Yes, although it isn't your fault the box got destroyed, it isn't the carriers either. Mail has to be delivered to a US Postal Service approved mail box They would be remiss in their duties if they just set it someplace.
