Mailing Junk back to Junk Mailers

Are you bombarded every day by the never ending pile of junk mail that arrives in your mailbox? Is it a challenge to manage the stacks that accumulate all over the house?

Well, you’re not alone. The average consumer receives 41 pounds of junk mail each year, according to 41Pounds.net, an organization that removes your name and address from dozens of organizations for a small fee.

But, we like the companies that allow you to opt out for FREE!

Go to www.optoutprescreen.com to have your name removed from the mailing lists used by the three major credit bureaus. It takes just a few minutes, and should reduce the number of credit card and insurance offers you receive.

To cancel catalogs you no longer wish to receive visit www.catalogchoice.org.

In the meantime don’t forget to destroy the mailing label and recycle the unwanted junk mail!
