ABSTRACT:
A Mailbox Caddie for reception and containment of pieces of mail, fully insertable into an individual standard Post Office mailbox. The tray consists of an economic, one piece molded plastic part, integrating all functional and aesthetically features, to match the Mailbox Caddie having four sides, which form an almost hollow parallelepiped, except for its front end, which is open, with both sides left and right tapered towards the front. The front edge base has a round lip and a sponge rubber adhesive pad to ease its handling. The base has three central ribs, raised from the bottom, to brace the length of the tray and raise the pieces of mail from the bottom of the base around the three up right sides, with an outer extended perpendicular edge also reinforcing the tray. When the tray is pulled out so far that it pivots on the front of the box, the outer back corners of the perpendicular upper edge limit the pivoting angle of the Mailbox Caddie as it is removed.
