Remote Mail Monitoring: Keep an Eye on Your Mailbox
I want to create a system that can notify me when the mailman delivers a package to my mailbox. Considering that my mailbox is located in the central hallway area, the mailman’s visit time is unpredictable, and I don’t have a window facing the road, so I can’t see the mailman’s arrival.
Here are some suggestions:
Install a smart mailbox: I can install a smart mailbox equipped with sensors and Wi-Fi connectivity, which will send a notification to my phone or email when the mailman delivers a package.
Use a motion detector: I can install a motion detector near the mailbox, which will detect the mailman’s movement and send a notification to my phone.
Mailbox camera: I can install a small camera near the mailbox, which will take a photo when the mailman delivers a package and send it to my phone.
Mailman signing system: I can work with my neighbors or building administrators to establish a mailman signing system, which requires the mailman to sign for confirmation when delivering a package, and then I will receive a corresponding notification.
These methods can help me receive notifications when the mailman delivers a package, solving my problem.
