9. Toss unnecessary mail immediately. Open your mail over a recycling container. Pull out all unnecessary papers and advertisements from bills and junk mail and get rid of them right away. Anything with personal information on it that you don't need should be shredded. As soon as you are done sorting through the mail, take care of your shred pile or delegate it to someone else. 10. Cut down on junk mail. Go to the Direct Marketing Association website and register to remove your name from direct mail lists. If you don't order from catalogues that you receive, call or write to that company and request that you be taken off their mailing list.
