Storage & Relay boxes

Storage (left) and relay (right) boxes. When I first saw it from the opposite side, I thought the storage box was a converted drop box. But from the lip seen about two feet up on this side it's one continuous piece all the way to the bottom of the other side.

 

I wonder what's stored in here; especially with the relay box being right next door.

 

 

BTW, the relay box is used by foot carriers. They depart from the station (post office) with one bag and a carrier in a vehicle drops one or more bags in a relay box for them. They'll finish their first bag and pick up the next one and continue on their route, swapping an empty bag (filled with collected mail) for a full one to be delivered.
