I must disagree, at least in my case. The local landfill is filling at
a rapid pace, so the local haulers have a 2 bag per week limit, with
excess resulting in a surcharge. Though I have not yet received junk
mail from the maps, I have in the past received junk mail from other
sources (conventions, magazines, and suchlike) to have to mete out the
rubbish over a two week period. [ note: I did not receive >2 bags of
mail, rather my faimly/business generates about 1.75 bags of non-
recyclable trash per week ] I have toyed with the idea of sending out
the extra trash bag and invoicing the mailers for the cost + invoicing
costs :-).
