Say NO to phone books


Say NO to phone books

March 14, 2013

What will it take to stop the publishers of “yellowbook” to stop littering my front yard with its unwanted phone directory delivery?

Getting junk mail-spammers to stop delivering unwanted mail, marketing and promotional materials is so incredible hard…

I just had to go out in my front yard and remove a large piece of trash. Guess what, it was a phone directory.

I have called, sent letters, faxed letters, and e-mailed various companies for quite a number of years to get them to stop littering my yard with trash and yet the problem continues.

On September 13, 2012, I registered with the “National Yellow Pages Consumer Choice and Opt-out Site,” www.yellowpagesoptout.com, to stop delivery of the unwanted phone directories, including the Westminster Carroll County directory that I received today on March 14, 2013.

The directory only made it in my house long enough for me to double-check the opt-out information.

The directory will now immediately go into the recycling bin.

You know, I cannot just drive by the homes of the folks involved with “yellowbook” and throw unwanted materials on their property. I would be arrested.

I wish the phone directory publishers would stop throwing trash throughout the community. It accumulates in the roadways, on sidewalks and the gutters, on private property and public parks. It is wrong.

As much as I dislike nanny-state government; I almost wish the city would pass an ordinance prohibiting the practice of distributing unwanted and unsolicited trash on properties throughout the city.

I’m just saying…
