Going Somewhere This Summer? Here's What to Do With Your Mail (And Why Your Mailbox Matters More Than You Think)

Posted by Tarah Boyleston on

Summer arrives and routines shift. Schedules loosen, vacations get booked and the front of your home suddenly gets more attention from guests, neighbors, and even slip-and-slide ridden feet. You make your vacation packing lists, check them twice (yes, you remembered the kids' sandals!), and are seated on your airplane. 

Suddenly, you turn to your husband and ask the classic question – "Did you pause the mail?". While this question is a quintessential after-thought for most, it can thankfully be done from the plane. Pause your mail for 3-30 days while you're seated on the plane, or make your request up to 30 days in advance. Here's a direct link on how to set it up! 

What Comes Home With You (And What Stays Outside) 

When you return from your trip, your entry is the first thing you see. A beautiful mailbox makes homecoming feel like something. Our wall-mount mailboxes are inspired by climbing jasmine, and brings a tasteful touch to the front porch or entryway. My mailbox is complemented by our jute doormats and this teak bench! 

Designed in Charleston, SC – a city that knows heat and curb appeal – and built to last with weather-resistant metal construction made for summer heat, humidity, and sun exposure. 

Available in three unique color-ways, our wall-mount mailboxes measure 14.25"W x 4.25"D x 10.5H and come with two screws to mount to a smooth service.

  • Bronze — classic, architectural, pairs with brick or dark trim
  • Trellis White — fresh, coastal, cottage-friendly
  • Basil — moody, earthy, on-trend for maximalist garden aesthetics

The Upgrade He'd Never Buy Himself

Speaking of afterthoughts, be sure to mark your calendar for Father's Day on Sunday, June 21st. If there's one thing we know about dad, it's that he's the one mowing the lawn, pressure-washing the driveway, obsessing over the front of the house. For the dad who takes pride in a well-kept exterior, a design-forward mailbox is a gift that earns a compliment every day. It's the upgrade he'd never by himself – functional, elevated, and long-lasting. 

Looking for a premium gift option? Our Welcome Home Bundle allows you to choose your mailbox color, a jute doormat, and brass keychain (saving $117 vs buying items individually).
