You can also use Catalog Choice’s free service to stop catalog clutter.
The next mail clutter issue that needs to be tackled? All those self-addressed envelopes that get sent by service providers even when you are paying your bills online. Sometimes they included SASE even when there is no action needed by you! I’ve tried asking vendors if they can stop sending those envelopes and of course the customer service person says they don’t even know who they’d ask about this. Let’s imagine that 1% of the US population has no need for those envelopes. That’s 3-million people. Let’s assume that each of those people receives 5 unwanted envelopes a month (I think I receive about 15). That’s 180 MILLION envelopes going straight to trash or recycle bin. Anyone want to tackle this issue??????
