The USPS Domestic Mail Manual states that "no part of a mail receptacle may be used to deliver any matter not bearing postage, including items of matter placed upon, supported by, attached to, hung from, or inserted into a mail receptacle."

The USPS Domestic Mail Manual goes on to states that it is a federal offense and there is a significant penalty for violating this law.
Stealing a mailbox in North Carolina is considered a federal offense under the United States Code, which can result in fines and/or imprisonment. Penalties can vary based on the value of the stolen mailbox and any other circumstances involved in the theft.
