Massive Amounts of Junk Mail

“Going Green” is more than a fad…it’s a lifestyle. One of the most basic ways that one can go green is by stopping unwanted junk mail from landing in their mailbox day after day and signing up for paperless credit card statements. Our favorite website to help you with putting a stop to endless unwanted mail solicitations is Catalog Choice.com.

At Catalog Choice.com, you simply find the business that you would like to stop receiving mail from (unfortunately you cannot stop receiving bills from businesses you owe money to!), input your customer number and key code and Catalog Choice.com will contact the business directly and ask them to remove your name.

Credit card offers are not as simple. You must contact the company directly via phone call to ask them to stop sending the offers. But Catalog Choice.com will provide you with the proper phone number to call to make that happen. This will not only save trees…but it will save you time!

Additional mail that you can opt-out of includes phone books, coupons and donation requests. While many of us enjoy receiving mail from companies that we do business with and enjoy seeing their products and offers, there inevitably will be mail that you receive that you have no intention on doing business with. Even if you recycle this paper, it does not alleviate the environmental impact that printing the mail has on our planet. If companies receive the message loud and clear that you are not interested, they will not print as much marketing material and this will have a direct impact!

So the next time you go to your mailbox, separate the mail that you no longer wish to receive and go to www.catalogchoice.com to create a free account with this non-profit organization and start stopping unwanted mail today!
