Stopping mail from previous occupants can be a bit of a hassle, but here are some steps you can take:

  1. Return to Sender: If you're still receiving mail addressed to previous occupants, you can write "Return to Sender" on the envelope and put it back in the mailbox. The postal service will return it to the sender, and hopefully, they'll update their records.

  2. Contact the Sender: If you notice that certain senders keep sending mail to the previous occupants, you can contact them directly. Explain the situation and provide them with your address to update their records.

  3. Notify the Postal Service: You can also contact your local post office and inform them that you're receiving mail for previous occupants. They may be able to take additional steps to stop the mail from being delivered to your address.

  4. Mark as "No Longer at This Address": If you're still receiving mail for previous occupants even after returning it to the sender, you can write "No Longer at This Address" on the envelope and put it back in the mailbox. The postal service should take note and stop delivering mail for that person to your address.

  5. File a Change of Address Form: If you know the forwarding address of the previous occupants, you can file a change of address form with the postal service on their behalf. This will redirect their mail to their new address.

Remember, it may take some time for these measures to take effect, so be patient and persistent in your efforts to stop receiving mail for previous occupants.
