A USPS Grumman LLV mail truck.


A postal truck in Brazil.

A mail truck, in the United States, is a vehicle that a mail carrier drives to deliver mail. Mail trucks typically have a place in the back for storing mail about to be delivered into mailboxes. Mail trucks in the United States are often driven by letter carriers of the United States Postal Service. Most mail in the United States is delivered using the Grumman LLV.

In the United Kingdom, such vehicles are known as Post or Mail Vans and letters and packets are delivered to letterboxes by Postmen or Postwomen.
