郵箱
郵箱,或稱郵筒,是常見於街道上,收集外寄信件的郵政設施,寄信人若果不便去郵政局,可以把信件投入到就近的郵箱,郵差會定時來郵筒收集信件運回郵局,再分類、運輸及派送。 郵箱是郵政局的固定資產,它是便民設施。
为了向公众展示统一的形象,邮政管理部门通常选择特定的颜色,使公众从总体上识别其服务。从目前各国邮政邮箱的主流颜色来看,红色是使用最为广泛的颜色。中华人民共和国的邮箱颜色统一为绿色。中華郵政則同時使用綠色(平信)及紅色(限時信件與國際郵件)。

- All Royal Mail / GPO post boxes were painted BS 538 Post Office Red between 1874 and 1969. With the introduction of the K8 Telephone kiosk in 1969, a new "red" colour was adopted for GPO street furniture, designated BS 539 Post Haste Red. After British Telecom and Royal Mail were split by the British Government, BT continued to use BS539 exclusively, whilst Royal Mail use both BS538 and BS539 in a seemingly random way. Prior to 1859 there was no standard colour although there is a document in the BPMA archive indicating that optionally, the lettering and Royal cypher could be picked out in white or black. In 1859, a bronze green colour became standard until 1874. It took ten years for every box to be repainted during this period).
- In 2012 UK post boxes mostly in the hometowns of Team GB gold medal winners in the 2012 Summer Olympics were painted gold.
