STOP Unwanted Junk Mail


usps-logo-oldThe holidays are fast approaching, and with them all the uninvited catalogs and advertisements piling up in your mailbox!

Stop unwanted junk mail by using the FREE opt-out service provided through the City of Seattle and Catalog Choice.  Just go to www.seattle.gov/stopjunkmail, click on the big green button, and sign up with Catalog Choice.

Then each time you’re bugged by unwanted junk mail, go to the site, enter the company name and stop that junk mail.  You can also use the site to stop phone books.

A small investment in time can save you a lot more in the long run.  The average person in the U.S. spends 8 months in a lifetime dealing with junk mail. (don’t ask me to find the source on that lovely statistic)  That’s a lot of wasted time, not to mention all the wasted trees, water and energy that go into making unwanted mail.

Save time and help the environment by joining more than 27,000 Seattle residents and businesses already using the FREE service.

You can also find lots of invaluable information at
