Choose the first sender for a mail cleanup

A full stack of mail is easier to handle one sender at a time. For your first request, pick an advertiser whose name you recognize, whose piece is plainly promotional, and whose label shows your address clearly.

How to pick and submit your first sender

  1. Go through your current stack and pull one advertising piece with a readable company name and a mailing label that shows your own address.
  2. Check that it is ordinary promotional mail addressed to you. Leave out bills, medical records, financial documents, and anything belonging to someone else.
  3. Take a clear photo that shows the sender name and your mailing label together, then review the details Junk Mail Magic prepares, sign in, and submit.
  4. Write down the sender name and the date you submitted. If the same mailer shows up again later, you will know when you asked.

What makes a sender a good first choice

A retail or catalog brand you already know is a simpler start than an unfamiliar political committee or a local flyer, because you can confirm the name on the piece matches the company you mean. If the name you see on the mailer is not the brand you expected, or you cannot tell who sent it, contact support at Junk Mail Magic support before submitting.

After you submit

Senders handle list changes on their own schedules. For a general idea of timing, see the guide to timing and follow-up.
