CBUs are being used more and more in new developments, and
there’s a good reason for it! Today we’re going to list why you should love
CBUs, whether you’re a developer or just a resident.
·
CBUs in a larger development are faster and
easier to install than individual residential units. Installing several CBUs
simply takes less time, less work, and therefore, less money.
·
CBUs require less maintenance simply because
there are less mailboxes to maintain. They are also more durable and
long-lasting than typical residential units.
·
CBUs will create more neighborhood interaction.
People will meet neighbors they may never have met because of this central
meeting place.
·
With online shopping becoming more popular,
package deliveries are only going to rise. Many CBUs have parcel lockers,
taking away some of the complications of package delivery and reducing the
chance of package theft.
·
CBUs allow residents to have access to their
mail 24/7 in a secure setting. Unlike traditional mailboxes, CBUs are locked
unless the key is used.
·
CBUs mean more reliable delivery times, and
faster delivery times. It’s much faster for a Postal worker to go to several
CBUs than to go to dozens of residential units.
·
CBUs save the post office money, as it takes
less labor and therefore less money to deliver to them.
·
The road risks associated with mailboxes go
away. Mailboxes will no longer be destroyed by snow plows, and people will not
be injured while in the road retrieving mail.
·
If you’re looking for a uniform design for your
neighborhood, this is the way to do it and stop owners from choosing their own
mailboxes.
