Is there a universal number to be on a ‘do not deliver’ list for phone books?
I just called Yellow Book and asked to be taken off their list. Tel: 800.373.3280.
I understand there is a business model behind the catalog business, and I would hate to see people lose jobs over this, but isn’t it time for regulation to reduce the number of unwanted phone books? What’s wrong with a system where the phone book company asks us to opt-in to receive one?
I notice that two cities are already considering a law to reduce phone books.
The Direct Marketing Association has DMAChoice.org. Isn’t it time the phone companies got their act together?

I actually used to work for Yell which own Yellow Book and in the UK they run recycling initiatives. If you want to call somewhere and talk to people that can tell you more, try going on http://www.yellgroup.com and looking up the tel number in the UK.
