📨 Hardship Delivery Rule (Door Delivery Exception)
USPS hardship delivery (PS Form 1528) is meant for someone who physically cannot access the mailbox due to a documented medical condition.
🔹 Key Rule:
If another adult in the household is able to retrieve the mail, USPS will often deny the hardship request.
USPS’s reasoning:
• Mail is delivered to the address, not to a specific individual.
• If someone at the residence can reasonably get the mail, USPS considers the hardship “covered.”
⸻
✅ When It May Still Be Approved
Approval is more likely if:
• The disabled person lives alone, OR
• Other residents are not reasonably available (e.g., they work long hours, are frequently away, or are physically unable themselves), AND
• A doctor provides documentation explaining why the disabled individual cannot safely access the mailbox.
The decision is made by the local Postmaster and can vary slightly by district.
⸻
⚠️ Important Reality
USPS is strict about this.
They generally do not grant hardship delivery simply because:
• One person is elderly.
• One person has mild mobility issues.
• It’s inconvenient.
It must be a serious physical limitation, and there must be no reasonable alternative inside the household.
