Nobody want to open their mailbox and see a pile of unwanted junk mail and advertisements instead of their more important mail. Mailboxes can only hold so much, and that valuable space should be reserved for mail you actually want. There are a variety of services that can help you reclaim your mailbox for the types of mail that you do want.
Catalog Choice
Catalog Choice is a free service that makes it easy to stop unwanted catalogs from filling up your mailbox. Catalog Choice allows consumers to opt out of receiving materials in the mail that they did not request. This includes catalogs, credit card offers, advertising circulars, coupons and even phone books.
The Direct Marketing Association
The Direct Marketing Association, whose members produce most of the marketing materials that some consumers consider junk mail, is a leader in helping consumers eliminate mailings that they have no use for. This ensures that direct mailings are targeted to those who actually find them useful and not wasted on those that are likely to just throw them away. The Direct Marketing Association’s Preference Service is a free online way to remove your name and address from their mailing lists.
OptOut
OptOutPrescreen.com is the official Consumer Credit Reporting Industry website to accept and process requests from consumers to opt out of offers of credit and/or insurance. This service allows you to opt out for 5 years, permanently or even opt back in if you have previously opted out. This can help to greatly decrease the number of credit card offers that you receive.
