I'm with Medusa. All that junk mail makes for good fire starter. We do not have a fireplace, but we do have leaves, limbs, and an occasional tree that falls over the fence from the non-caring #%$@ neighbor's wilderness that has to be removed one way or the other. Chuck the unwanted in a rice bag, storage crate, or trash can and be generous when you stoke the latest fire on the back corner of the acre.

Just sayin .....
