I live in a rural area in Kenosha County, Wisconsin. Last winter when there was a snowstorm, the county plow truck knocked down my mailbox at the end of my driveway. I have a long driveway. I notified the local post office and told them about the situation, and they have saved my mail until May 2026. I know I have not fixed the mailbox because it needs a complete replacement. I was extremely busy and had several personal issues where the installation of the new mailbox was not a priority. Plus, it is very difficult to find a handyman to install a new mailbox due to digging and pouring concrete. I am still looking for a handyman to install a new mailbox for me. However, the local post office no longer will hold my mail for me and returning to sender. I am missing a lot of important mail including a bunch of credit cards and debit cards that were mailed to me and the postmaster sent it back to sender. I even offered to pay for a PO BOX, but they would not hear it. Is it legal for the post office to not hold my mail aside and return important mail to the sender? I know I was dragging my feet to fix the new mailbox, but we had snow and frozen grounds up to mid-April. Thank you.
