-

Go to Lakeshore's Communication Preferences page. Enter the name and street address as printed on the catalog and leave the catalog mailing list.
-
PaperKarma app

-
Phone
Call Lakeshore Learning Materials at +1-800-428-4414. Ask them to stop catalogs 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 catalog already labeled can still arrive.
- Orders are separate. Stopping catalogs does not stop a classroom order or invoice.
- A later list add-back can start it again. Asking for another Early Childhood or Elementary catalog can put the address back on.
Why Do You Receive Lakeshore Learning Materials Mail?
Lakeshore Learning Materials is the teacher-supply and classroom-furniture retailer. Ethelyn Kaplan opened a toy store in 1954 and then began serving teachers. They now develop and sell classroom furniture and materials for early childhood programs, elementary schools, and homes, with multiple catalogs, 60 retail stores, more than 80 local reps, and more than 3,500 people on the team. Corporate offices sit at 2695 E. Dominguez St., Carson, California.
You get that mail if you taught, ordered classroom furniture, asked them to send one, or landed on a list they mail, including names from data brokers. Teachers, schools, and parents all show up. You do not need an account. The leftover catalog is often for a room you already outfitted.
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.
NOTE: DMAchoice will not stop mail from Lakeshore Learning Materials as it is not an active member of the ANA.
-
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 Lakeshore Learning Materials 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 Lakeshore Learning Materials 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 Communication Preferences, or call +1-800-428-4414, and ask for a deletion or do-not-share request, and to opt out of catalogs.
Frequently asked questions
How long until Lakeshore Learning Materials mail stops?
Allow 8 to 12 weeks. Print runs are scheduled in advance. If a catalog arrives during that window, it was likely already printed and labeled before your request was processed.
How do I stop Lakeshore Learning Materials mail for a previous resident?
Call Lakeshore Learning Materials at +1-800-428-4414 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 Lakeshore Learning Materials 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.
