Can you cancel your mail permanently
The joys of avoiding junk mail!
In the United States, you can request to have your mail permanently removed from the United States Postal Service's (USPS) mailing list. Here's how:
- Opt-out online: Visit the USPS's Opt-Out website (www.usps.com/myportal/ optout.htm) and fill out the form. You'll need to provide your name, address, and email address.
- Call the USPS: You can also call the USPS's National Customer Service Center at 1-800-275-8777 (1-800-ASK-USPS) and ask to be removed from their mailing list.
- Write to the USPS: If you prefer to send a written request, you can mail a letter to:
United States Postal Service National Customer Service Center 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW Washington, DC 20260-0004
In your letter, include your name, address, and a request to be removed from their mailing list.
Note: Keep in mind that while you can opt-out of receiving mail from the USPS, you may still receive mail from other organizations, such as credit card companies, banks, or political parties.
Additionally, if you're looking to reduce your junk mail, you can also:
- Register with the Direct Marketing Association's (DMA) Mail Preference Service (MPS) to reduce unwanted mail from companies.
- Use online services like 41pounds.org or Catalog Choice to opt-out of catalogs and other unwanted mail.
- Contact specific companies or organizations that send you unwanted mail and ask to be removed from their mailing lists.
Remember to always verify the authenticity of any requests or forms you fill out to ensure your personal information is protected.
