Hello
Can someone please advise on how to stop all that paper advertising materials delivered to the door – coupon newspapers, business cards, flyers, etc, that are being left on the door knob and front stoop of the building? Thank you!

On my block those little red signs really work. I think most realtors sell them for about $2. each.

There is a vendor that delivers a bundle of ads in a plastic bag. Their phone number is on the bag. You can call and ask not to receive the ads. They will comply but every so often, something happens and you have to “opt out” again. The No Flyer sign also helps but not everyone respects it.

BinRefugee – that made my day! Hilarious, thank you!

Pathmark was the biggest offender on my stoop. I collected all their junk for a month, then took it all in a bag down to Pathmark and dumped in in front of the check out. “I think you left this stuff by accident at my house”. It didn’t stop the door drops, but it WAS satisfying!
