The subsidize bulk junk mail because it justifies labor levels--by that I mean it shows they are moving a certain volume of mail.
1. Rural delivery costs tons. Requiring a PO box outside of a certain radius would probably reap huge savings.
2. I saw something that was a good idea in California. A lot of their subdivisions have a central spot where all the mail is delivered and residents pick it up. Security is an issue but its certainly mroe efficient.
3. Street boxes at the least. Maggie was right, it wastes tons of time and effort by mailmen.
A bit off topic, but I read somewhere a good 10 years ago where there was a guy who subscribed to as much junk mail he could. What he did was used it to heat his home, loved it! :thumbup:
