Now an app can help with that. PaperKarma, a free app for iOS, Android, and Windows smartphones, was designed to help curb the delivery of unwanted junk mail — and reduce paper waste.
PaperKarma allows you to take photos of the junk mail you wish to stop. Snap a photo, and you’re done. We automatically contact the Mailer and remove you from their distribution list. PaperKarma can stop most junk mail that is addressed directly to you.
Have you tried using the app? To reduce your paper waste, what’s worked for you?
