Summary
Dear Heloise: I used to receive tons of unsolicited catalogs each week. I decided to be proactive in not only unclogging my mailbox each day, but also in saving trees. On each day that I received a catalog, I would get on that company's Web site, then click either "customer service" or "contact us" and send a brief e-mail, something like this: "Please remove my name/address from your catalog mailing list, and do not give/sell my information to any other companies." I usually included the catalog code or account number if there was one on the mailing label.
I no longer get many catalogs at all. Sometimes it does take two to three months for the catalogs to stop, but the effort I initially put into this has been worth every second of my time. I encourage all people to do this; it truly will help our environment. -- Kris Perry, via e-mailSee the full content of this document
