Losing your mailbox key or moving into a new home in Benbrook? You’re not alone—and there’s a clear process to get it replaced through the Benbrook Post Office.
Start by visiting the post office in person with proof of residence, such as a driver’s license and a mortgage statement or lease agreement. Once verified, postal staff will schedule a time to rekey your mailbox. This process can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on their lock change schedule.
If you’ve just moved in, there’s a good chance your first key replacement will be free. However, if you’ve lost an existing key, expect to pay a $25 replacement fee. Once the lock is changed, the post office will provide you with a new key and leave a spare in your mailbox for pickup.
Patience is key—literally. While turnaround times vary, many residents report that it can take a couple of weeks to complete the process.
For more information, visit the Benbrook Post Office at 9410 Benbrook Boulevard or call 817-249-8743 for current rekeying schedules and requirements.
