Auxiliary
Services & the Ecological Mail Coalition
Auxiliary Services has partnered with Ecological
Mail Coalition to help reduce the college’s undeliverable
junk mail. The EMC can help decrease the amount of catalogs, magazines
or other advertising for employees and students who are no longer
at MHC. The EMC compares their database with the marketers'/mailers’
database and notifies them when an employee or student is no longer
at the address they have. They do not sell or give out their database.
Why should we bother you might ask? Did you know
that by partnering with the EMC we can cut 100 pounds of solid
waste and save one tree for every former employee or student?
In addition, it helps by reducing the time, frustration, and expense
of handling the unwanted mail. Auxiliary Services' goal with this
partnership is to save time, money, and natural resources by utilizing
this service.
Since mail is a sensitive issue, security precautions
are in place to ensure the integrity of our databases and personal
information.
To add a former employee to the "do not mail"
database please fill in the online Former
Employee Bulk Mail Elimination Form.
How the system works...
- You fill out the Bulk Mail Elimination
Form to tell us which employees have left.
- Marketers submit their mailing lists to the coalition before
mailing.
- The coalition compares the names and addresses on the marketers'
lists with your former employees.
- Outdated contacts are flagged for removal.
- Over time, your undeliverable mail volume drops dramatically.
- Everybody is a winner: the college reduces the amount of
undeliverable mail, marketers save money by mailing only to
valid recipients. Even the planet benefits from reduced waste
of natural resources. Best of all, it is completely free!
