PaperKarma. It solved my junk mail problem. I get maybe 1 solicitation every other month now. Just snap a photo of the envelope and it sends the company a request to stop contacting me.
I used to get junk mail almost daily. It took a few months to notice, but the traffic slowed down after about 6 months. After a year I got almost nothing. I've been using it for like 4 years.
PaperKarma helps you reduce your junk mail from USPS. I've been using it for 2 months now, and I really do see a significant drop in junk mail. Previously, my mail box would be packed after not checking it for 1 week, now I only have maybe 1/3 of the previous junk.
What you do is take a picture of all the junk mail sender's address and paperkarma will unsubscribe them for you. Do that for a few weeks and you'll see a drop in junk mail. It's not 100%, but I'm happy with the results so far.
To get removed from legitimate companies' mailing lists, try Paperkarma. All you have to do is upload a picture of junk mail and they will request your removal from that company's list!
There's a smartphone app to reduce this (take a pic of the offending junk mail then they attempt to contact the sender and request you off the list) - paperkarma - worked pretty well for me, about 70% reduction in junk over about 4 months.

How do I opt out of EDDM spam? I've tried contacting PennySaver, various catalogs, etc... but it just keeps coming.
edit: I'm going to try PaperKarma app.
Have you tried PaperKarma? It's worked for me for most things.
That one garbage rag you have to remove yourself on their site(can't remember the name cuz I haven't seen it in years!).
Try Paper Karma. I've only been using it for a short while but if it does what they claim it will definitely help cut down on the junk mail I get.
Here is an Android app that I use with good success. I just snap a pic of the junk mail, and the app does the rest.
Next time, skip punishing the mail clerk and use PaperKarma to remove yourself from the mailing list.
Curious, I just looked it up on my android in the Google play store and found it. Does this link work for you?
Try this?
I use the Paper Karma app to cut down on my junk mail. It even got rid if the Red Plum inserts. The Apple store has it, too. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.readabl.paperkarma
There's an app for that
Works great. Give it a shot.
PaperKarma has nearly solved my junkmail problem, but it did take a few months to really take effect.
If only there were some kind of app where you could tell companies to stop sending paper junk mail.

PaperKarma is an Android app that takes care of the process of unsubscribing from junkmail. All you have to do is take a picture of the junk mail with your phone.
