Email request
Use the Email option on this page and ask Jewel Osco to stop promotional postal mail. Include the full name and mailing address you want removed. Copy the template below, fill the bracketed fields, and attach a photo of the mailer if you have one.
If sending your opt-out request by email, use this helpful template for Jewel Osco:
Hello, I'm writing to request that Jewel Osco permanently remove my address from all direct mail lists, including your internal house list and any rented or third-party lists used to source your mailings. The name and address to remove as they appear on a recently delivered unwanted mailer: [NAME] [ADDRESS] [CITY ST ZIP] A few notes for your direct mail team: • I have never subscribed to marketing communications from Jewel Osco. • This address is registered with the National Do Not Mail list (DMAchoice), so standard list hygiene should already be suppressing it. • Since I haven't opted in with you directly, the source is most likely a rented or co-op list. Please also flag this address with your list partners so it's suppressed at the source. Please confirm in writing once the suppression is complete. I've attached an image of the mailer for reference. Thank you, [NAME]
Replace the bracketed fields ([NAME], [ADDRESS], [CITY ST ZIP]) before sending. Attach a photo of the mailer if you have one, and keep the reply for your records.

PaperKarma app
Photograph the Jewel Osco circular. PaperKarma files the opt-out for you.
Once you opt out of this sender, you can opt out of 100,000+ other mailers in the same app.
-
Phone
Call Jewel Osco at +1-877-932-7948. Ask them to stop circulars and other promotional mail for the name and address on the mailer.
A phone request can take 5 to 10 minutes or longer, depending on the phone tree, hold time, and whether they offer a callback.
What to Expect After Opting Out
- Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Print runs are scheduled in advance. A circular already labeled can still arrive.
- Receipts are separate. Stopping promotional mail does not stop a pharmacy notice or a grocery receipt they treat as account mail.
- Sister banners keep their own lists. An Albertsons or Safeway circular is a separate request.
Why Do You Receive Jewel Osco Mail?
Jewel-Osco is the Chicago-area grocery and drugstore banner of Albertsons. Frank Ross and Frank Skiff started Jewel Tea Company in 1899 with $700, a rented horse, and a secondhand wagon, selling tea and coffee door to door. Jewel Food Stores merged with Jewel Tea in 1934. Osco Drugs joined in the 1960s, and the two names later sat under one roof. AB Acquisition bought Jewel-Osco from SUPERVALU in 2013. The parent merged with Safeway in 2015. Jewel-Osco now runs 188 stores in Chicagoland, Indiana, and Iowa. The leftover mail is a circular or offer, not a receipt from a shop you already used.
You get that mail if you shopped, used a loyalty card, or landed on a list they mail. An Albertsons or Safeway circular is a separate request.
How to Prevent General Junk Mail Proactively
-
DMAchoice
DMAchoice is the Association of National Advertisers' mail preference service. An $8 registration asks about 1,100 participating national companies to suppress your address from prospect promotional mail for 10 years. It does not cover local mailers, charity appeals, companies you already buy from, or occupant / current-resident saturation mail. Allow 90 days or longer.
-
OptOutPrescreen
OptOutPrescreen is the official Consumer Credit Reporting Industry site. It lets you opt out of firm offers of credit and insurance for 5 years or permanently.
NOTE: OptOutPrescreen will not opt you out of Jewel Osco mail. It only covers prescreened credit card and insurance offers.

PaperKarma
For local and regional mailers, coupon packs, charity donation requests, and the large share of junk mail that DMAchoice does not cover, the PaperKarma app has the largest U.S. registry, with over 100,000 mailers on file.
Your Data Privacy Rights (CCPA & Beyond)
A promotional opt-out stops Jewel Osco marketing mail. It does not always stop the underlying address from being shared. If you live in a state with an active consumer privacy law (California’s CCPA and several others), you can request access to or deletion of your personal information, and you can opt out of sale, share, or targeted advertising.
Go to the Albertsons Companies Privacy Policy page, or call +1-877-932-7948, and ask for a deletion or do-not-share request, and to opt out of printed marketing.
Frequently asked questions
How long until Jewel Osco mail stops?
Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Print runs are scheduled in advance. If a circular arrives during that window, it was likely already printed and labeled before your request was processed. Pharmacy and account mail can still arrive.
How do I stop Jewel Osco mail for a previous resident?
Call Jewel Osco at +1-877-932-7948 and include that person’s name and this address, or use the PaperKarma app to scan the mailer, mark the recipient as a previous resident, and submit the opt-out. Do not mark the person as deceased unless they are deceased.
Will Jewel Osco mail stop if I move?
Not automatically. Marketing lists are tied to a specific name and address. A USPS forward can send a few more packets to the new address. Call again for the new address, or use the PaperKarma app there.
