Business Recycling

Let's Get Down to Business...
RECYCLE IT!

PRODUCE LESS WASTE:

  1. Replace Styrofoam coffee cups with ceramic mugs.
  2. Save used office paper - cut and pad for messages.
  3. Share business subscriptions. Keep one and cancel the rest. Print all reports on front AND back of paper.
  4. Use routing slips instead of individual inner office memos.
  5. Donate old office furniture and supplies instead of tossing them.
  6. Don't OVER ORDER!
  7. Store documents on computer disks instead of hard copies.
  8. Reuse file folders by reversing them.
  9. Use "post-it" fax headings instead of cover sheets.
  10. Return toner cartridges from laser printers for refilling.
  11. Deliver any Styrofoam packing peanuts to Pack "n" Ship near Wilson Mall.

BUY RECYCLED PRODUCTS:

  1. Check with your supplier about purchasing office supplies with a high post-consumer waste content; computer paper, copy paper, stationery, paper towels, toilet paper, etc.

EDUCATE:
  1. Make a corporate commitment to contribute time, money and employee expertise to community efforts for waste reduction and recycling.
  2. Provide employee education and incentive programs for waste reduction, including publicity, news releases, seminars, company newsletters, etc.
  3. Establish an in-house recycling committee that works to improve company waste handling practices.
