Yes. The U.S. Postal Service has mailbox height requirements. If your mailbox does not comply with these requirements then the USPS will suspend delivery service until the problems are corrected. I know this personally because it happened to me twice.

Below is are the requirements as stated on the USPS website.

The name on your mailbox should be at least 1 inch high.

You should install the mailbox with the bottom of the box at a vertical height of between 41-45 inches from the road surface, unless you have a road or curb condition that prevents this. If you do, be sure to contact the postmaster before you change your mailbox location.

Boxes must also be on the right-hand side of the road and in the carrier's direction of travel in all cases in which driving on the left-hand side to reach the boxes would pose a traffic hazard or violate traffic laws and regulations.

Your mailbox should be set back 6 to 8 inches from the front face of the curb or road edge to the mailbox door.

A mailbox with a lock must be a model that's USPS approved by the Postmaster General, with a slot large enough to accommodate your daily volume of mail.
