Residents in the Township of Mulmur are reminded that now is the time to check that mailboxes and posts are in good repair before snow plows are active on county roads. Metal is the preferred material for rural mailboxes and there should be a solid connection from the box to a 6-inch top, and a wood post in good condition. The front of a mailbox must be a minimum of 3 feet off the edge of pavement. Residents are also reminded to clear snow around and upstream from a mailbox and post.
