Phone Book Recipients Can Opt Out 3/12/2009

Want to keep Yellow Pages directories off your doorstep? Contact publishers online to reduce how many you receive or decline them altogether.

Yellow Pages publishers let you adjust how many phone books they send or remove yourself from distribution lists. Enter your ZIP code on the Consumer Choice page for a list of publishers and how to contact each of them.

Details on stopping junk mail are provided by the N.C. Division of Pollution Prevention and Environmental Assistance. Links for dealing with telemarketing calls and e-mail "spam" are provided also.

Do you have old phone books to discard? Drop them off at the Wake County solid waste convenience center at 6025 Old Smithfield Road, just outside Holly Springs on the west side of N.C. 55 Bypass.

Wake County Solid Waste now accepts residents' phone books year-round at Old Smithfield Road and a dozen other locations throughout the county, including one in the New Hill community. They're open daily 7 a.m. - 7 p.m.

Phone book recycling locations include the South Wake Multi-Material Recycling Facility at 6130 Old Smithfield Road. It is open to Wake County residents and businesses.

Telephone books are not collected at curbside. Please do not put them in garbage or recycling carts.
