FEBRUARY 2008 NEIGHBORHOOD LIAISON E-NEWSLETTER
The free kit includes a series of pre-printed, preaddressed postcards that you can send out to major direct mail marketing firms requesting your name and address be removed from their list. Also, you can visit Denver Recycles’ website at DenverGov.org/DenverRecycles for on-line resources for preventing unwanted mail from arriving in your mail box.
For that unwanted mail that still ends up in your mail box, you can RECYCLE it in your purple recycling cart at home. Junk mail such as opened mail, postcards, paper envelopes (plastic windows are okay), flyers and advertisements can all be recycled in your Denver Recycles’ recycling cart. Just remember, NO plastic wrappers, NO fluorescent paper and NO Tyvek® (polyethylene fiber) envelopes, such as some overnight mailing envelopes. Also, don’t forget to remove, block out or shred any personal information (social security number, driver’s licenses number, credit card number, etc.) before placing the material in your recycling cart.
For more information about Denver Recycles programs call 3-1-1 or visit us on-line at DenverGov.org/DenverRecycles.
