That looks like my neighborhood mailbox set-up. I order a lot from amazon. When they ship UPS, FedEX, or OnTrac, it’s delivered to my doorstep. When they ship USPS, it’s delivered to my neighborhood’s mailbox bank (as in your photo) and I have to go a few blocks to retrieve it. Not nearly as convenient when there’s a couple feet of snow on the ground. I order less from amazon than I used to because of this, especially in the winter.

It makes me glad to live in an older neighborhood with mailboxes mounted right next to the doors. USPS will put small packages in the mailbox. Everyone else will put it on the porch right along with the big USPS boxes.
