At DOR-2-DOR, we do, of course, respect your right not to have unaddressed material through your letterbox. However, these can sometimes be missed by our or any delivery company, so we apologise for any inconvenience this has caused you.

May we please take this opportunity to give you some vital information about what we do and our industry.

The European Union and the UK government want to see paper going into landfill reduced, and recycling increased and are keen for effective systems to be put in place to reduce the number of unwanted leaflets inserted in magazines sold at your local newsagents and leaflets and other material that's posted through your letterbox reduced and minimised.

With door drops, the main logistical problem is making sure our Post Person doesn't put the leaflet through the letterbox of the homes that don't want it. This may seem a simple problem to overcome; however, in practice, there are issues. We give our Post People a map of the delivery area showing streets for the drop area, and the deliverer happily goes on their round. The delivery process is entirely mechanical and automatic, and they sometimes have headphones on. If there is a notice by the letterbox, our Post Person may miss it and push the unwanted leaflet through the letterbox.

We use the recommended method from the Data & Marketing Association, which is to give the deliverer a list of addresses not to deliverer to, and we mark it on the map that they are following. This works well, but sometimes if the Post Person loses concentration for one reason or another, unwanted letterboxes can still get posted.

Now I guess you might say, well, why does junk mail have to exist at all? Why can't we ban it? The truth is it works, and over 90% of the population don't really mind getting the latest Pizza menu from their local restaurant or a special offer from a fitness club, or a message from a garden maintenance man plying his trade. The fact is that it works, and it especially works for local businesses.

It's a relatively low cost, so it is helping the local business community and creates jobs. More people working means more taxes collected, resulting in better hospitals and schools, infrastructure and social services etc. In fact, the DMA statistics show that the direct marketing industry injects over £45 billion annually into the national economy, and that's a lot of schools and hospital etc. So it's a little bit of junk mail that perhaps you don't want can do a lot of good for many people.

Finally, some facts regarding paper and trees. Two Sides the print industry voice tells us that 94.4% of the paper we use comes from European forests and that these forests are growing by an area the size of Greece every year, that's 1.5 million football fields or four times the area of greater London and paper can easily be recycled. More trees for paper means less CO2, so it's positively affecting the environment.

More importantly, the environmental impact of electronic communication cannot be ignored. - The ICT industry accounts for approximately 2% of global emissions. Annually Global Cloud computing demands twice as much electricity as the entire United Kingdom. 9 million tonnes of e-waste from goods such as mobile phones, laptops and tablets is generated.

Print and paper can be a sustainable way to communicate; many consumers still value it, including the younger generations.

We apologies for any inconvenience you have experienced.
