Abstract: A mail retrieval system for allowing a user to limit exposure to the elements while retrieving mail. The mail retrieval system includes a support assembly extending between a curb and a house. A mail receiving member is coupled to the support assembly whereby the mail receiving member is selectively transported along the support assembly. The mail receiving member is designed for receiving mail. The mail receiving member permits a user to retrieve the mail when the mail receiving member is transported along the support assembly to be positioned proximate the house. A drive assembly is coupled to the support assembly. The drive assembly is operationally coupled to the mail receiving assembly for transporting the mail receiving member along the support assembly when the drive assembly is actuated by the user to allow the user to retrieve the mail in the mail receiving box without having to walk to the curb.

Abstract: A conduit member includes a forward first, second, and rear second section connected by a "U" shaped central section to transport a vehicle member between the forward and rear sections about a track utilizing a pulley system to effect reciprocation of the vehicle member within the conduit member. The vehicle member includes a bottom cavity for receiving newspapers therewithin aligned with a lower slot within a forward wall of the forward section. An upper mail cavity is mounted within the vehicle aligned with an upper door for receiving mail therewithin. A cam track mounted upon the vehicle effects reciprocation of an indicator flag within the forward section to provide visual indication of mail to be picked up by an associated mail carrier.
