A useful mailbox quote separates the box and post from installation labor. Otherwise, two prices can look comparable even though one covers only a mailbox swap and the other includes a new post, digging, and removal. Here is how Mailbox Bros prices a standard Houston installation.
| Your project | Price | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Install a compatible mailbox and post you supply | $350 | Standard installation labor; supply the complete compatible kit. |
| Buy a mailbox from our catalog and have it installed | Mailbox price + $350 | Choose the design first; box-and-post materials are priced separately. |
| Add removal of a standard old post and box | +$75 | Optional add-on to an installation. Large footings and masonry need review. |
| Installation labor + standard removal | $425 | Before mailbox materials, optional upgrades, and any applicable tax. |
| Custom brick or stone mailbox | See designs / request a quote | Masonry catalog builds include their stated materials and on-site build; no extra standard installation fee. |
Prices reflect our current standard scope. Final pricing depends on the selected product and reviewed site conditions. Request your project total.
If you already own the mailbox
Standard installation labor is $350 for a compatible post-and-box setup. Send the product link before booking. If a mounting bracket, structural post, or required hardware is missing, the job is not ready for a standard appointment. A photo of the complete kit lets us catch that early.
If you are buying a mailbox from us
The catalog price for a box-and-post option is separate from standard installation. Select a style to see the product and labor line items, then choose any optional removal, finish, number, lighting, or other upgrades. Your selection controls the price; there is no need to estimate a citywide average for the exact mailbox you want.

What removal adds
Standard old post-and-box removal adds $75 when booked with installation. That makes standard installation plus standard removal $425 before the mailbox, upgrades, and any applicable tax. A brick column, oversized concrete block, electrical component, or buried obstruction may need a separate quote after photo review.
How brick and stone prices differ
Masonry is a different scope. Our brick and stone catalog prices include the specified materials, footing, and on-site build; the standard post-and-box installation fee is not added again. A fully custom design, unusual site, demolition, or extra work needs its own review. Compare the column dimensions, insert, cap, address treatment, and site preparation when comparing masonry quotes.
