Has anyone had a mailbox built that resembles a teardrop?

Is anyone interested in taking this on?
 
Uh oh! Here we go!...with the name paInted on the DOOR in front. Don't
think the US Mail would let it be anywhere else do ya think?
 
not sure I understand

My mailbox doesn't need a name on it. I have the street address (house number) on the post, and that is all I need, apparently.

(This is for a mailbox for my home, not for the trailer)
 
I do think the mailman would get confused if he came to my Teardrop Trailer-shaped mailbox and saw my trailer's name stenciled on the mailbox instead of my last name or my street address
 
To each his own- living rural we had many who had mailboxes in various shapes- a rooster, a barn, etc. I think if a person put "MiniMc" or "Snugglebug", etc. on a TD shaped mailbox with their address on the side that the mailman would "get it".
 
You haven't talked to my mailman!!

:D

I like the idea, don't get me wrong.

First things first: I need to find a TD-shaped mailbox. I'm guessing I'll be making one myself. This proves that "you can [NOT] find everything you want on the internet."

But you are right - I am sure any mailman would get it.

I found a place that makes mailboxes, custom. I've asked them for a sketch of what a teardrop-shaped mailbox would look like, and I've given them the link to the Camp-Inn site so they can see ours.

I am assuming a very simple design, with the kitchen hatch opening so the mailman can insert mail.

Is anyone interested in a TD-shaped mailbox? His quote is for $250, but the price would come down to $215 if 10 folks want one.

(this is a mailbox for your home - not a mailbox for your trailer, just to be clear)
