You may not stop to think about cluster mailboxes but chances are you travel down to the end of your street or another nearby location to one of these CBU mailboxes each day to get your mail. More and more communities are turning to community mailboxes instead of delivery of mail right to your door.
It's done for a variety of reasons, one is security. Your mail is protected by a key so there's no worry of someone taking your mail or packages. This started out years ago with apartment mailboxes and commercial mailboxes. It's much faster and easier for a mail carrier, especially in areas where there are no sidewalks. Granted there's no guarantee this will ever help the price of postage to decrease, but the security aspect alone is worth it for many.
