The Zumbox service allows you to reduce paper waste by subscribing to a digital service that will electronically deliver your postal mail. If you are one of those people who constantly loses important letters, or who simply forgets to check the mailbox, then this service might be just what you need.
Essentially, the way it works is that once you provide the company with your mailing address and permission, they then contact your service providers to have your documents sent digitally. The company states that they have "bank-level security," which means that you won't have to worry about private information getting into the wrong hands. Of course there is the option to opt out of it if you prefer the standard mailing method.
