You can ask, but I can tell you without a doubt it is illegal to ship
anything over 5% alc. thru the post office. Your postal clerk is supposed to
ask each time you mail a package "Is there anything flamable, liquid,
fragile or potentially hazardous?" If they are not, they are not following
procedure.
The reason that some collection boxes are being removed is due to theft.
Unfortunately, there have been cases where entire collection boxes have been
removed. Most times, they are just tampered with by those whose intent is to
steal identities and/or checks.
