1. What are the mailbox placement requirements?

Mailbox placement

We don’t want to damage your mailbox. Please make sure it’s placed at least 8" from the curb and sits at least 42” high. 

Mailbox numbers

To comply with Township and emergency personnel regulations, 3" reflective address numbers must be on both sides of every mailbox. 

• Black and colored mailboxes: use black numbers on a white background 
• White mailboxes: use white numbers on a black background

Using the right reflective numbers will help emergency services to identify your home when needed.

4. I’m selling my property without a realtor, what do I need to do?

You will need to fill out a: 

• Residential Resale Use & Occupancy Request and pay the inspection fee ($100). 
  After the request and payment is received, an inspector will contact you to arrange the inspection. 
• Sewer/Trash Certification Request and pay the fee ($15 per certification). 
  These are essentially a final bill that must be paid at the settlement table. Please call 610-363-9450 for questions with certifications.
