Handle Mail Once

When you bring mail into the house take an extra moment to look through it. Immediately take bills to bill location, magazines to their area, coupons to theirs, etc. Junk mail can go straight to the "round file" - trash.

Personal letters should be the only thing on the counter as residents come home. Important personal correspondence can be shared daily. Less stress.
