What to do with newspapers that show up in my mail? I so dislike mass mailings and junk mail!
I live in a tiny home (456 ft). I'm very organized and, due to the fact of the small space, everything needs to have a home. I also live in a rural area.
That being said, I already keep certain single use things. I keep the packing paper I get in packages (I use it for various things). I roll it up and it has a place to live. I have a stack of egg cartons for a person who has chickens (she knows where I keep them and stops to pick them up when she delivers my eggs). Single use plastic bags (I fold them up and keep them in a shoe box and use them for trash, etc) although I have reusable bags but I still seem to get them. I keep the liners to cereal, random mixes, etc. If it comes into my home it has to have a function and a home.
But what do I do with newspapers that show up in my mail box? I already have enough "stuff" that meets my everyday needs. Currently I don't have recycling (I'm working on that for our neighborhood). I don't have friends or neighbors who use it (I've asked). And I just don't have a space for it to just be stored. I've tried to get it not to be delivered to me but it's done as a mass mailing (I so dislike junk mail).
So what do I do with it? I'm by no means zero waste (although I do try). Every week the most of my trash is these newspapers along with the junk mail. What to do?
