I currently watch a neighbors home for the summer. A few weeks ago, the Daily Sun started to be delivered. I sent emails to the circulation department and stopped in their Spanish Springs office to stop the paper to no avail. This apparently happens often where they just start sending a free subscription. Papers can pile up causing concern for the Villages Watch and let bad guys know folks are away. Should not be allowed. simply a way to show a larger subscription base.

Dangerous for their property and most likely they are unaware of the situation

I was offered a free paper for 6 months, but I had to call to get it started. Now I am considering cancelling because I never read it.

My neighbor's been getting the paper delivered to her house daily for the past week. The home is unoccupied at the moment. I, not being the homeowner or legally designated person, can't call to have her paper held up til she gets back. You can't just call a company and tell them to stop doing something for someone else's property. Believe me if that was legal I'd be calling the handyman and tell him to stop coming to build and paint at my other neighbor's house - because he keeps leaving a mess. But it's not my property, I'm not the one who hired him for the job, and I don't have the authority to tell him to stop.
If the delivery of the paper continues this week I'll call my neighbor and let her know, and SHE can call to cancel if she wants. In the meantime, we're just tossing the paper under her carport by her doorstep. She'll be down here in a month, so she'll have plenty of reading materials when she gets here.
