NYC specific - Direct Mail - checking no mail list

[Milan Obradovic]

Hey BP, I just came back from a class regarding the MLS specifically in Brooklyn. Towards the end we were shown how to search a large address list and export labels for direct mailing. Then we were told a story about a realtor who hired a company for direct mail, one of the people who received hos postcard contacted the DOS and he was fined $1,800 for sending it to a house that was on the no soliciting list. My question is, is there a free service to search eho is on this “no mail” list? They showed us the no call list website but it did not have the no mail members. Has anyone dealt with something similar? I personally cannot believe how some people are so irritated that they actually go through with complaining instead of just throwing it out. Thanks!
