PostalAnnex + Offers Compensation for Packaging Peanuts

Local Store Provides $2 Vouchers To Promote Recycling

Woodland Hills, CA (Grassroots Newswire) December 26, 2007 – Now that the presents have all been unwrapped and the holiday season is winding down, thoughts turn to what to do with all the leftover packaging.

“Many people may have received packages shipped from out-of-town family, friends and relatives that contain packaging 'peanuts,'" said Edwin Akhavan, owner of PostalAnnex + of Woodland Hills. “Rather than filling the trash can and creating more landfill, why not recycle them?” 

Recycling the peanuts is good for the environment and good for you as well.  According to the Plastic Loose Fill Council, close to 45 million pounds of loose fill are produced each year in this country.  While some newer forms of packaging peanuts are made from biodegradable contents such as starch, most forms are not biodegradable. 

Akhavan says to bring in whatever you’ve got and the PostalAnnex + store located at 21781 Ventura Blvd. will issue you a $2 voucher good toward your next UPS or FedEx shipment. You can even use this to help pay for any holiday gifts you still have to send.

PostalAnnex + is a convenient one-stop business service center. Offering UPS, FedEx and USPS shipping, Akhavan’s store also provides postal services, packaging, copying, notary, identity-theft protection through private mailbox rentals and a variety of related services. You can visit the Woodland Hills Postal Annex’s website at www.postalannex5012.com
