This present application relates to a movable tray for use with a mailbox, as well as a kit, to allow an individual to retrofit a mailbox to accommodate the moveable tray of the present invention. The moveable tray of the present invention has a low coefficient of friction and may use a system of rails and channels to allow easy pulling of the moveable tray from the mailbox to retrieve the contents of the mailbox.

A delivery receiving container for receiving and securely storing packages, the delivery receiving container comprising multiple independently accessible and lockable compartments that can be customized to the size of the package received. Embodiments of the invention can comprise dividers that divide the space inside the container into compartments for the receipt and storage of multiple packages from multiple deliveries. Dividers can be moved as needed to accommodate different package size for efficient use of space. The adjustability of the dividers and the multiple independent access compartment lids allow the delivery receiving container to receive multiple independent deliveries from different delivery companies.

The present disclosure is directed to a system including a vehicle including a collection and placement mechanism configured to collect and place a mailbox, a plurality of mailboxes that are capable of being transported, collected, and placed by the vehicle, and a controller. The controller causes the vehicle to execute being loaded with a first mailbox containing no posted matter, moving to a placement site of a second mailbox containing a posted matter in a state of being loaded with the first mailbox, and collecting the second mailbox and newly placing the first mailbox, at the placement site of the second mailbox by the collection and placement mechanism, to replace the mailboxes.

An extendable and resilient mailbox is implemented in which the mailbox can revertibly extend outward to improve accessibility to the mailbox during heavy snowfall. The extendable mailbox is also configured with break-away action which enables the mailbox to laterally move and resiliently revert (or “break away”) to a base position. For example, when a snow plow inadvertently crashes into the extended mailbox, the mailbox will laterally move in the direction of the encounter to reduce the chances of or prevent the mailbox's destruction. Once the snow plow has passed or at least is no longer clashing with the mailbox, the extendable mailbox reverts back to its base position in which it is aligned with the mailbox post.

A system for the delivery and secure receipt of packages from unmanned vehicles to improve security and protection of the packages upon delivery. A UAV receptacle provides a water-protected interior to protect a package. The UAV receptacle includes a door in one side that allows a reception tray to extend out and back in, and which locks to protect the package so received. The UAV receptacle detects a drone in proximity. Upon confirming that delivery is for the UAV receptacle, the reception tray extends to a reception position. A sensor detects the package on the reception tray upon delivery from the drone. The reception tray is of a mesh material to reduce water retention. The UAV receptacle retracts the reception tray and closes a door to seal the package within the UAV receptacle. The UAV receptacle may notify user devices that the package has been received.

The present invention teaches a residential wall penetrating mailbox with enhanced box handling capability, openable by barcode scanning, and openable from either inside or outside a home. A body which is generally column shaped has front and rear doors which open at the top and hinge near the bottom and which have interleaved fingers or members extending from the bottom ends into the interior space of the mailbox. A box tray sits on the interleaved fingers. When either door is opened the fingers of that door lift the box tray upward and out of the box on that side. Thus, a delivery person may access a box from outside the home, while the homeowner may do the same without leaving the safety of the home interior. In addition, an elastic cord and carefully slanted slots on side panels of the front door allow easy retention of a box even further up the front door.

A remote-controlled mailbox is provided. The device includes a mailbox housing having an open front end and a front door pivotally affixed thereto, wherein the front door selectively closes the front end. A post is affixed to a base of the mailbox housing. A frame is affixed to a lower end of the post, wherein the frame movably engages a track. Upon actuation of a motor of a mechanical drive system, the frame moves along the track, thereby moving the post and mailbox housing in kind. A remote device includes a plurality of controls thereon, wherein the plurality of controls is operably connected to the motor. Upon actuation of the plurality of controls, the mechanical drive system selectively moves the frame along the track.

A storage container securable to the exterior of a home, office or other building for enclosing one or more packages is disclosed herein. The container may be coupled to a door or window of the building without destruction of the exterior surface of the door or window. The storage container may be sized and shaped for various sized packages.
