I live in a community with very small mailboxes and I'm finding that I get so many advertisements and "junk mail" that, if I don't get my mail for more than a few consecutive days, USPS stops delivering my mail until I come pick it up at their local headquarters.
My community put a trash can next to the mailbox area and now, every time I get my mail, it's full to the very top with other people's junk mail.
I plan on calling the community association to see about stopping the newspaper delivery, since there are a few that come to me and they are huge (and I never read them).
But what about services like this?

Is that effective? What do you guys do (or what have you done) to rid your real mailboxes of unwanted mail?
