This is 2011 data, I couldn’t find anything more current. We’ve tried to reduce or eliminate junk mail for almost 10 years, but nothing works, including refusing to do business with companies that won’t stop. Catalog Choice helped some for a while, but new junk mailers just replace the old as fast as you get off their lists. Big waste of resources for millions of Americans.
Advertising mail accounts for 59 percent of all mail Americans receive. But only half of that mail is ever read, according to the United States Postal Service.
"The Early Show" asked Kovach to shoot a video diary to document all the junk mail she and her family received in a month. At the end of the month, she had received 15 pounds of junk mail, and only three-and-a-half pounds of mail she actually wanted or needed. That number doesn't even include the free newspapers she doesn't want.
