Mail Alert Service for Tuscany

Welcome to the Mail Alert Service for Tuscany. Our USPS mail carriers do a great job, but delivery time is not always predictable for various scheduling reasons. Delivery usually occurs sometime between noon and 5 PM. A number of residents make multiple visits to the mailroom per day, often to find the mail is not there yet.

The Mail Alert Service for Tuscany will send you an email when the USPS mail carrier begins distributing mail in the mailroom. If you would like to take advantage of the service, just sign up by clicking the link in the “How To Sign Up or Discontinue” section below. You can discontinue and sign up again as often as you would like. If you change your email address, simply discontinue the service and then sign up again with your new email address. The database of residents subscribed to the Alert Service will be updated once per week.

How Does It Work?

When the USPS carrier brings the mail, she or he opens each of six “walls” of mailboxes, places the mail in the individual boxes, and then closes the “wall”.  When the “wall” opens, a magnetic door/window sensor on one of the lower mailboxes activates an alert, which is detected by a home automation hub in the building manager’s office. The hub then sends a message over the Internet to a cloud service called Zapier, which in turn sends an email to all residents who have subscribed to the service. The email will normally arrive within five to ten minutes from when the mail carrier opens the first “wall”.
