Ferndale, Mich. Brothers Create Do-It-Yourself Kit to Help People Rid Their Homes of Junk Mail

FERNDALE, Mich., April 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Three Ferndale brothers have created a do-it-yourself kit that allows consumers to reclaim control of what goes into their postal mailboxes.

The Stop Junk Mail Kit ( www.stopjunkmailkit.com ) is an all-in-one product that provides consumers with the necessary information to assist them in eliminating their names from a multitude of bulk mailing lists.

    For a one-time fee of only $17.50, the Stop Junk Mail Kit will:
    -- Eliminate 90 percent of the junk mail a household receives for up to
       five years
    -- Remove the consumer's name from bulk mailing lists and stop unwanted
       catalogs
    -- Help protect the consumer's identity by putting an end to credit card
       offers
    -- Provide valuable tips on how to stay junk mail free

The Stop Junk Mail Kit is available online at www.stopjunkmailkit.com . The company also is seeking retail outlets to sell the product. As part of its commitment to the environment, the owners of the Stop Junk Mail Kit will plant five trees in the consumer's name for every kit it sells.

"There are more than 30 direct marketing and bulk mailers throughout the country that are flooding us with information we do not want," said Sander DeVries, who started the company with his brothers Shane and Tim Pfannes. "The Stop Junk Mail Kit is our way of helping consumers fight this battle, while also saving the environment from unnecessary waste."

In addition to consumers, schools and local organizations have been purchasing the Stop Junk Mail Kit to help raise funds towards such projects as equipment, class trips and new facilities.

"The great thing about these organizations using the Stop Junk Mail Kit to help raise money is that it also gives us the opportunity to bring awareness to important environmental and security issues," said Shane Pfannes.
