New phone books not up to date
Has anyone noticed that new homeowners (or those who have moved from one home to another earlier this year) do not have the correct info listed in the new phone book? I moved in March---and yet the listing shows my old address. Also, the people whose home I bought are listed in their old home. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Not a major problem but I worry that once the PO stops forwarding my mail, some of it may never get delivered to me.

I use the book for recycling.

OP, did you file a change of address with the newspaper? It is my understanding that early in the year there is an advertisement and form to fill out for changes. I think you need to fill out the form, the newspaper does not get updates from the phone (cable) companies.

I used it to protect my transmission case while I changed the crossmember.

I like my neighbors approach...they just moved both phone books from their driveway to the spot where they place their trash pickup.

I find the phone book useful. Perhaps I'm "old school".

One phone book would be OK, but we get several phone books that go straight to recycling.
What an unnecessary waste of trees.

One does come in handy if a grandchild needs a little height at the table.

And because of the evil practice of clear cutting and other unsanctioned deforestation efforts, the US now has lots of laws and regulations that mandate the reforestation of logged out areas which insure the future of our environment! My local area in Maine requires loggers/property owners to plant 2 trees [seedlings or larger] for every tree removed. And a local nursery gives away a free spruce seedling to every car that stops there during a three week period around the State's largest agricultural fair. And in NH my friends have an annual complimentary visit from the State Forest Service in order to walk their acreage to identify what trees/growth should be taken away in order to maintain the health of their other trees. Today's Daily Sun might be printed on last year's recycled phone books!

I add the phone book to the pile the weekly Recreation News goes in each week.
We could start a thread on when was the last time you used the phone book? Door stop! |

I use mine as a base for making string quilts. It is later torn away but I do find a use for the old one once new one arrives. The majority of quilts go to charity also.

one of the new books has a cross reference section that lists home towns by state. its pretty cool, you can look up your home town and see if there any villagers!

Ours goes straight to recycling also. Haven't used a phone book in years.
