Stop Junk Mail, Save the World!

If you want to support APPLE while you stop your junk mail and don’t have a lot of time, you can check out 41 Pounds today!

An average of 41 pounds of junk mail is sent to every adult citizen each year. Approximately 44% of this mail goes into a landfill unopened.

For $41 ($18 of which you can have donated to APPLE) they will contact over 30 direct marketing organizations and catalog companies and instruct them to remove your name from their distribution lists. This includes almost all credit card applications, coupon mailers, sweepstakes entries, magazine offers, insurance promotions, as well as any catalogs you specify. Their service lasts five years. They have been able to stop between 80% – 95% of this type of mail. You can sign up online or by phone – when you do, just be sure to select APPLE as your designated non-profit group from their list.

If you have more time than money, you can do much of this yourself: click here for details.
