Huge Phone Book Opt-Out Savings

Congratulations, Seattle!

More than 67,000 households and businesses signed up to stop phone books in 2011, and you’ve already stopped nearly 300 tons of paper from being used.

Did you receive a yellow pages phone book after opting out? If so, you can file a complaint online through your City of Seattle stop phone books account. If you submitted your opt-out request by phone or mail, call our automated phone line at (206) 504-3066 to submit a complaint. Yellow pages publishers will be held accountable, and even fined, if they fail to honor timely opt-out requests from Seattle residents and businesses.

Haven’t submitted your request to stop phone books yet? Go to www.seattle.gov/stopphonebooks to find out how to sign up online to stop phone book deliveries starting in 2012, or call our automated phone line at (206) 504-3066.

Your opt-out choices are permanent and will apply to all future deliveries.
