Dear Editor:
I am amazed as I walk around my development on trash pick-up days. It is hard to believe that many households put their trash cans and their vehicles directly in front of their mailboxes. And sometimes they actually put their trash cans on the roadway.
The roadway is for vehicles, not trash cans. Do they have to be told that because of this, the mail person has to get out of their vehicle to put mail in their box? Don't they realize that this is not acceptable?
I would like to see the Post Office and/or code enforcement crack down on these inconsiderable individuals and just not deliver their mail on trash pick-up days. They need to give the postal people a break and put their trash and vehicles "away" from their mailbox and not on the road.
