Direct Mail: How to reduce what you receive

Most of us would rather receive less direct mail.  Well, there are ways in which we can reduce how much we receive.

Here is the Better Tomorrows guide on direct mail reduction.

1. Contact the Mailing Preference Services (MPS)

The Mailing Preference Service will stop personally addressed unsolicited mail.
Visit www.mpsonline.org.uk to find out more.

2. Royal Mail Door-to-Door Opt Out

By 'opting out' you will stop unaddressed mailings from businesses and organisations. However, by choosing this 'opt out' scheme, you may miss out on important central government and local government information  - however this can usually be viewed on-line.

3. Contact Stop Junk Mail

4. Just say no!

Put a 'No Junk Mail' notice on your mailbox to discourage individuals delivering door-to-door promotional materials.
