Good morning Conrad. Junk mail would stop coming if no one bought what was being sold or offered, so it won't stop anytime soon.

I'm going to guess 100 pounds.

I'm going to guess 1000.  My husband and I took an extended vacation last year and although we had a house/pet sitter we elected to hold our mail and pick up when we returned. I actually went through it at the post office and brought home less than 1/4 of it.

I googled it and even then there was no real consensus.  One site said 6 peices a week, one said 11 peices. But the thing that stuck was that 44% goes right into the trash unopened!  I just had a discusion with my husband about marketing using targeted post cards.  I think I am done with that idea!  So THANK YOU for asking the question!!
