Deal with the Junk Mail Immediately
Why do we allow junk (postal) mail to accumulate? Even when we know it’s not something we’ll ever be interested in?

I’ve learned to deal with it immediately, throwing out what I definitely don’t want as soon as it comes in. If it’s a “maybe,” I generally toss it, too. I’ve discovered these” maybe’s” simply accumulate and are never anything of importance.
Then I’m learning which mail I must deal with immediately, which bills to put into a file according to dates they are due, which letters to be answered now and those to get to in a day or two but are not junk to be tossed.
I’ve also cut back on magazine subscriptions. Actually I don’t have any print subscriptions at the moment because I’ve found most of those were put aside to read later. That later never came and eventually the magazines were given away or put into our yard sale.
How do you organize or deal with your junk mail…or any of your mail in order to avoid the mountain that can become an avalanche?
