I know this is an older post, but another idea for snail mail...
I have a client that uses earthclassmail.com
All of their mail goes there and you have the option to scan/download it or recycle/shred. It cuts down on clutter and paper. I check his mail about 1 time a week- takes about 10-20 minutes.
You also have the option to have the physical mail "mailed" somewhere if you do need the actual paper/item.
