Fill Her Up!
I often eat junk, but also things with more bulk.
What I eat, I do not consume, and what goes in my mouth comes back out of it.
I don't speak to you, but you can still get information from me.
I'm numbered among many friends.
What am I?

Hint
I come in various shapes and colors,and can most often be found loitering outside,
just hanging around or sitting on a post.
Answer
A mailbox."Junk mail" is the term often used for advertisements sent through the mail. "Bulk" mail, now called "standard" in the U.S., is often used by businesses and other types of organizations. Bulkier mail-pieces such as packages can be delivered in some mailboxes too.
In urban areas, mailboxes are usually hung beside the front door, in more rural settings, boxes are placed on a post beside the road.

Only objection I'd have is that all the letter boxes I've ever used, you take the mail out from the back, not the front where it's inserted.

I should have go that one, I mean really I should have thought about who was writing it.
Really fun and not too hard.
First class fun. I'll give it my stamp of approval.

I went with garbage can. A lot of people have their house numbers on it. And "information" I figured was referring to the fact that you can tell a lot about a person by what they throw away.
