End general mailers, coupons, special offers, and requests for donations:

• If there are not removal request instructions on the mailer, simply search Google.com with the company's name followed by "privacy email". Once the email address is found, send the company an email with this content:

"Hello,

Please remove this information from your mailing and marketing list(s):

[Your Name]

[Your Address]

Please do not send any further communications.

Thank you.”

Be sure to include your name and address exactly as they appear on the mailer you received.

• If there is not a privacy email address available, search for the company's marketing or customer service phone number. Then call and ask to be removed from the marketing and mailing list(s).

• If no email address or phone number is available, find the company on Facebook and send them a message through Facebook Messenger with the same content as above.

• For companies that include a return envelope with paid postage, simply write the same content on the provided letter/form and mail it back to the company. 

End Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM):

• These are the hardest to stop as they're sent to all addresses in a zip code vs to an individual household. Repeat the process from Step 2 to let the companies know you don't want their junk mail

Take further action!

Email your local postmaster and state that:

1. you no longer want to receive unsolicited and/or unwanted junk mail; and

2. you’re requesting they end the EDDM program
