I live in Georgia, and I have a very unreliable trash service, recycling pickup is extra and it is not cheap, the can they give you is actually incredibly small. And we get so much damn mail here. I saved up all the junk mail that I get for a month and that’s after I signed up for the FTC program to stop getting stupid commercial spam mail. I have an entire plastic tub of just trash junk mail that I get. I don’t even know what to do with it anymore. My paper shredder can barely handle it, I am constantly just storing tons of trash in my garage because there is no way I can keep up with it… I’m considering getting a commercial paper shredder to deal with this bullshit, because it helps to compact it into a smaller size but still, why should I have to deal with that? I am like so confused how to deal with all this crap. I ordered one thing from Amazon and it came with so much packing materials and cardboard filling in it, now I have to take a trip to my local dump that I don’t even have time for… Just to get rid of this stuff. We are literally in the midst of a trash crisis.

    I’m not sure I understand how this works? So you just cram everything into the junk mail envelope and that’s it?
