Reply to comment by imaluckyduckie in multi unit mailbox key. by VoxBorealis

Thank you do that correct assumption. I just don't know who does the work, or if the post office has any control. I myself am responsible for getting it done. I'm asking about process. Appreciate that!

There should be 2 locks on the mailbox. One that the postal worker uses, and another which you (the resident) uses. There's no special process to change the resident lock. You can do it yourself, or hire a locksmith. If you need to change the lock the postal worker uses, then you just need to make sure you use a USPS STD-4C compliant lock, and your letter carrier will be able to open it

Buy the lock from a hardware store it’s less than $10. Easy to change yourself.
