Questions
- Where is the nearest post box in Sydney?
- The map shows all 435 mapped boxes. This is one of the categories where OpenStreetMap is clearly the better source, since mainstream map apps rarely carry individual letter boxes at all.
- Are collection times shown?
- Occasionally. Where a contributor surveyed the collection schedule it appears in the point details, but most boxes carry only their location.
- Where does this post boxes data come from?
- From OpenStreetMap, a map built by volunteer surveyors and maintained continuously. It is the best available source for small fixtures like this one, because they are the things commercial map providers do not bother collecting.
- Something is missing or wrong. Can I fix it?
- Yes, and it is the fastest way to get it corrected. Edit the point on openstreetmap.org and the change flows through to this page on the next refresh. There is no separate database here to correct.
- Is the list of post boxes in Sydney complete?
- It is as complete as the local survey effort. Densely mapped cities are close to exhaustive; elsewhere expect gaps. The map is always the fuller view, since the list on this page only names the points that have a name.
