Next time I pick up my mail at my friend's house, instead of shredding it all - I'll obtain a rubber stamp and stamp all the mail 'Not at this Address' - then drop it off at the PO. Hopefully, this combined with "Opting-Out" of mailing lists will be effective at reducing my volume of mail.
Having been a mail carrier for several years, I can tell you that if you mark all mail you don't want "not at this address" then "ALL" mail will be returned as "moved left no forwarding address" including your drivers license and vehicle registration and any other mail you do want to receive. You can't have it both ways.
