I have heard that those currently paying for a box in Keaau would get their box for free if boxes for HPP residents are set up there. The mail and ship in keauu says most of their customers now actually live in HPP. Also they would offer a safe place to accept ups deliverys etc. I agree that stopping in Keaau for mail every day is a hassle for some. Maybe a compromise could be reached where only those wanting to set up a free box in Keaau could give up their sattelite box in HPP or get off the waiting list. I know for new residents waiting for a box in HPP the wait is over 8 months. The fact is that the USPS is going broke and they need to find some solutions. The repeated replacement of damaged/vandalized boxes will not help their situation.
