Tired of catalogs clogging up your mailbox??
February 18th, 2010 by Ken
Junk mail is the bane of any household, particularly catalogs from companies hawking products for which you have zero interest. Many of us, when arriving home from work, hate the daily ritual of filtering unwanted junk from the mail that we’re actually interested in reading.
Initially unveiled as just a beta, Catalog Choice is now an official registry that allows you to cut down on the clutter filling up your mailbox.
It’s completely free and easy to use, supported by more than 1,000 merchants complying with the requests made through this service.
After the registration process has been completed, you can browse their directory for any catalogs that have found their way to your mailbox. You can either put a halt to their delivery altogether or make it so the frequency with which they’re sent to your residence diminishes considerably. Once your choices have been made, Catalog Choice will contact the companies and inform them of your preference.
Be forewarned: It can take up to 12 weeks before you notice your changes.
If you’re like me, you look forward to a mailbox containing only that which is relevant, absent the unnecessary solicitations. For those of you who tire of finding your mailbox invaded by catalogs you almost immediately toss in the garbage bin, this service is a perfect means of putting an end to the unwanted junk.

Hi Ken -
We aim to let you control what gets in your mailbox so you can feel good about what you get in the mail. We are weeks away from expanding our list of supported mailers from 1,300 to > 3,000.
Let me know if you have questions about the service.
Best,
Chuck
