A free printable post box sign.
A set of printable post box and letterbox signs for common household requests — no junk mail, no cold callers, please knock, or leave parcels with a neighbour. Print on card or laminate for a letterbox that gets noticed.
Which sign to use
- No Junk Mail / No Free Newspapers — the most requested wording; see our dedicated No Junk Mail Sign if that's all you need.
- No Cold Callers — a polite but firm sign for doorstep sales callers.
- Please Knock — Letterbox Broken/Not In Use — useful where the letterbox flap doesn't work or lets in draughts.
- Parcels: Please Leave With Neighbour / In Porch — reduces missed deliveries when you're often out.
Printing and fixing it
Print on A4 card for durability, or laminate standard paper if it will be outdoors and exposed to weather. Most letterbox signs are fixed with strong double-sided tape or a small adhesive sign holder; avoid screws on rented or shared doors.
FAQ
Will a sign actually stop junk mail? A clear, polite sign reduces unaddressed mail significantly, though it won't stop everything — Royal Mail and some couriers are required to deliver regardless of signage.
Can I combine two signs on one letterbox? Yes — many households print both a 'no junk mail' and a 'no cold callers' sign and fix them together.
Is this suitable for a shared or rented front door? Use removable adhesive strips rather than anything that marks the door, and check with a landlord or managing agent first if the property has rules about external signage.
