Purchased my house 2 years ago and was a rental before...I’m getting medical statements, phone bills, literally everything. I used return to sender for the first gear, made no difference so gave up. A year later it’s still happening. New stuff gets sent too from new addresses’s so he must be still using my address as his.

Is there anything else I can do here to stop it?
That happened to me too when I bought my house. I put notes to the mailman in the mail box and everything but he kept delivering mail for her. Obviously her kids had never put in an address change to be sent to them when she died. Finally I called the post office and complained. Told them the woman was dead and didn't care if she got mail or not and would they PLEASE not send anymore. I knew the executor of her estate and notified him if something looked 'Important' enough but trashed all the junk mail. Finally the mailman took her name out of the mailbox and, three years later, I might still get some kind of catalog, etc.. Anyway, call the post office about this. It isn't YOUR responsibility to worry about the previous tenants change of address.
Is there any way you can contact the guy whose mail it is? I'd guess you have his name from the mail you get and Google can be your friend!

Keep using the "Return to Sender, No Longer at This Address".
Some company probably sold an old mailing list to another one is why you still get newer mail.
I cross out the address and write “not at this address and put it back in my mailbox. It doesn’t take long for the mail person to figure out it is more work to pick it up and refile it as non-deliverable than it would be to file it as non-deliverable in the first place.
Don't just leave it out for the mail carrier.
When you've accumulated several pieces, write "not at this address", take all of it to post office, go to counter and explain the problem.
It's not your responsibility to try to contact the person or the companies sending the mail. Take to post office and be done with it.
Are you saying the full compliment of monthly bills... every month?
That would be very odd.
Ten years later you'll still get a piece now and then.
Everything - Sprint, Multiple medical bills, HSA, IRA, Bank statements including debit cards!! New medical bills from different providers (based on outside I don’t open because I know it’s against the law) so I know it’s not just unpaid bills it seems like it’s new procedures and the person just continues to use this address (I’m guessing so he can dodge the payments)
I don’t care about junk mail because that goes away with time, I’m getting his literal mail. Maybe he’s homeless I don’t know.
Tried to look him up on Facebook and not on there either. I guess I just need to continue returning to sender and if this continues save it up for a month and dump it at post office and tell them I can’t keep getting this indefinitely
My Mom still gets mail for me at her house and I haven't lived there for 37 years.....
