It has over 38 million members across the country and is considered one of the nation\u2019s most powerful advocacy groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While some of its mail is membership and account correspondence sent to its members, some of it is more promotional. This includes brochures, catalogs, promotions and membership offers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To put it more broadly, AARP marketing mail is trying to sell you something.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-unsubscribe-from-aarp-mailing-list\">How to unsubscribe from AARP mailing list?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can complete an AARP opt out from mailing list request via its website, phone, email and mail.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Online\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1.

Carson St., Lakewood, CA 90712<\/strong>. However, your opt-out process may take longer via this method.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-long-does-it-take-to-stop-receiving-mail-from-aarp\">How long does it take to stop receiving mail from AARP?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AARP doesn\u2019t provide a timeframe of how long the opt-out process takes. But, in our experience, expect to wait 4 to 6 weeks for the request to take effect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-to-do-if-i-keep-receiving-marketing-material-from-aarp-after-opting-out\">What to do if I keep receiving marketing material from AARP after opting out?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, your request won\u2019t take immediate effect. Wait up to 6 weeks for this to take effect. If, after 6 weeks, you\u2019re still receiving junk mail from AARP, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Do not open any letters from AARP. Write \u201cRefused. Return to sender,\u201d on the front of the envelope. Then post it back in the mail. It\u2019s important to stress that envelopes should not be opened for this to work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Making a formal complaint to AARP. Follow the guidance provided on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aarp.org\/money\/budgeting-saving\/info-04-2011\/consumer-complaint-checklist.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">its website<\/a> on how to make a complaint to customer services. Email <a href=\"mailto:member@aarp.org\">member@aarp.org<\/a> with your grievances and await a reply.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-do-i-stay-off-aar-ps-mailing-list-for-good\">How do I stay off AARP\u2019s mailing list for good?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To stay off AARP\u2019s mailing list, you need to ensure you don&#8217;t consent to receiving marketing whenever you interact with the organization. For example, when signing up for something online.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that unsubscribing from the AARP mailing list may not guarantee you won&#8217;t receive mail spam in the future. This is due to the fact many organizations acquire marketing data through third party intermediaries called <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/blog\/what-are-data-brokers\/\">data brokers<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To stop receiving unwanted mail from AARP and other companies for good, you&#8217;ll need to delete your personal information from data brokers. But this can be very time consuming as there are over 500 data brokers in the US.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, you can get DeleteMe to do it for you. We specialize in removing personal data from data brokers. And once your information is removed, you\u2019ll start to see a reduction in <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/blog\/how-to-stop-spam-calls-robocalls\/\">spam calls<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/blog\/how-to-stop-junk-mail\/\">junk mail<\/a>.&nbsp;<br>Our plans start from just $10.75 per month. <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/privacy-protection-plans\/\">Click here<\/a> for more details.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While promotions and other types of direct mail from AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) can be helpful for consumers, some people would rather not receive this.\u00a0 If you fall into that category, the good news is that getting off AARP\u2019s mailing list is relatively simple.
