Vandalism results in removal of two Everett mail boxes

EVERETT — Nuts and bolts are all that remain of a mail collection box at the post office hub in south Everett. Across the city, duct tape, cones and an “Out of Order” sign are keeping another collection box closed in north Everett.

Vandals — not budget cuts or political interference — have shuttered both boxes, according to officials from the United States Postal Service.

Overflowing mail was reported at the Hardeson Road postal hub where one mail box was removed due to damage. At the Hoyt Avenue post office, the lone blue collection box is out of use after someone tried to pry it open over a week ago.

Tampering and damages to the collection boxes aren’t uncommon according to John Wiegand, a postal inspector with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, but he said the closures are part of an uptick in incidents in south Snohomish County including Everett and Lynnwood.

And will cheerfully allege it in advance of any further fact investigation might reveal.
