One person's war on junk mail (1996)

Thanks, I might try the Paper Karma app since it claims to deal with previous residents’ mail too (unlike the DMA opt-out site).

My other idea is to look up the previous resident on a “living person” search site and then notify the mailer of their (supposed) new address myself. I’d hate to have it redirect the torrent of mail to some other innocent person, but hopefully it will just go to the rightful addressee.

For the self-storage spam, I eventually just googled the name and region and found contact information for a plausible match. I sent them an email explaining the situation, and while I never heard back from them, I haven't seen any more mail yet...
