Has the wear and tear of weathering taken its toll on your mailbox? Maybe the head has decided it doesn't want to be cooperative anymore. This guide will help you fix the head of your mailbox and reattach it to the base! This fast fix should take no more than 30 to 45 minutes to get done and results in minimal difficulty. Be sure that the only repair needed is to reattach the head of the mailbox and the entire post isn't the issue. If so, that will call for a replacement of the whole unit. Be sure to have safety gloves by your side just in case.
