Last night someone took out my mail box. It was mounted on a 4x4 post mounted on a circular concrete pad. Had it for over 30 years. It was easy to move when needed. The vehicle broke the pad and the post into small pieces and the mailbox lost the front opener. Any ideas where I could find that setup. It was bought that way. I have looked at the big box stores.

You can get the post at Home Depot. We had to frame and pour the concrete base.

I had to pour my own base. I got the post at Lowe's, I think, and framed for the base. I still have that frame if you want it.

What are the frame dimensions and and did you use any rebar and more thatn one sack of mix ?

I cut 8 nine inch long (outside length) pieces of 2x4s with bevels to make an octogonal frame. Stand them on edge, not flat, or there will not be enough weight to support the mail box. (Ask me how I know. ) I did not use rebar, and I think one bag is cement was enough. I placed a short piece of 4x4 in the center of the frame to leave a hole for the post and poured around it. I did used a scrap piece of plywood instead of assembling on gravel or grass. Once the frame and 4x4 are removed, you can place the base where you want, and put the post in place. This is the method you see used on many rural routes. Not hard to do.

My pad was a circle. The more I think about it, I think a concrete company made a bunch and I bought one. Of course this was in the late 70's early 80's.
