I wish they would not leave phone books on my porch....I just throw them in the recycling....I do not want them. Waste of paper... one just came today.😡

No way of alerting them to the fact you do not want them.

Wow, my state stopped printing them years ago.

My gosh, I haven't received a phone book in decades! And I live in a city of 1+ million.

I appreciate them...we put it to use.

Don't get rid of it! You just never know when your TP will run out and then what?? Phone book to the rescue!

I agree @SeaMaiden.  Make them available but let people ask for them.

We get 2 of them thrown at the end of the driveway twice a year and they don't even make it into the house, they go right into the recycling bin.

@SilleeMee   Hmmm.....you might be on to something....maybe I can sell it on EBay for $20 or something😄

Yeah, this kind of waste bothers me, too. 

Do people even use phone books these days?    I'm nowhere near the top of the 'using all the electronics out there' tier, but I haven't used a phone book for probably 15 years.

FYI: Go online and Google stop phone books. There is a sight where you can opt of directories.
