A common complaint I hear from home owners is “How do I stop junk mail?” This is especially true for new home owners who find they’re bombarded by catalogs and advertisements intended for the previous owners.
Not only is eliminating junk mail a personal convenience, but it’s also good for the planet. Who hasn’t lugged 60 pounds of junk mail down to the curb on recycling night and thought, “I can’t believe all of this paper and ink is wasted.”?
