We noticed the boxes had numbers on them; do they correlate to your address or some other significance?
Thanks for any insight........

First of all, welcome to TV! As to your question, here's how you get your postal box assignment: The person closing your home purchase measures your height at closing, then cross-references that figure with available boxes. If you are of above-average height, you are assigned a box as close to the bottom row as possible. If you are short in stature, you will find your box in the top row, or as close thereto as possible. Simple algorithm, used universally in similar situations.
