No mail list junk mail

The frustration of receiving unwanted junk mail! Here are some tips to help you reduce or eliminate unwanted mail:

  1. National Do Not Mail List: Register your name and address on the National Do Not Mail List, a free service provided by the Direct Marketing Association (DMA). This won't guarantee no junk mail, but it can help reduce the amount you receive.
  2. Opt-out online: Many companies allow you to opt-out of receiving mailings online. Look for a "contact us" or "unsubscribe" link on the company's website or email.
  3. Contact the sender: If you receive junk mail from a specific company, contact them directly to request they remove your name from their mailing list. You can usually find their contact information on the mail piece.
  4. Use the USPS "Do Not Forward" service: If you're moving or don't want to receive mail at your current address, you can request that the USPS not forward mail to your new address.
  5. Use a mail-blocking service: Services like 41pounds.co.uk (UK) or MailBlock (US) can help block unwanted mail by sending a "do not mail" request to the sender.
  6. Check your credit reports: Review your credit reports to ensure your information is accurate and up-to-date. This can help prevent junk mail from being sent to your address.
  7. Use a PO box: Consider using a PO box instead of your home address to receive mail. This can help reduce the amount of junk mail you receive.
  8. Report junk mail to the FTC: If you receive junk mail that's misleading or deceptive, report it to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
  9. Use a mail filter: Some email clients and apps offer mail filtering features that can help block unwanted mail.
  10. Consider a junk mail filter: Services like EarthClassMail or Junk Mail Filter can help filter out unwanted mail and recycle it for you.

Remember, it's not possible to completely eliminate junk mail, but by following these tips, you can reduce the amount of unwanted mail you receive.
