Dumpster Rentals = Sustainability?
You might be surprised to hear that, even as a dumpster rental company, we do everything in power to be environmentally friendly. We are committed to sustainability, and to observing and following laws and best practices aimed at protecting our environment. How do we do this?
For one, we follow all applicable laws governing trash and junk. As you could imagine, each city and state have a number of laws governing what we can put in landfills, and how it is done to create minimal negative impact on the environment. While some companies may cut corners here, we don’t. We stay up to date, and ensure we follow all guidelines and best practices. From a practical standpoint, this may mean updating our list of Hazardous materials (HAZMAT) we can’t allow in the dumpsters. Or it may mean completing special paperwork for certain items. Regardless, we do the hard work and ensure the dumpster rental process is simple and hassle-free. This allows you to focus on your project, while feeling good about your impact on the environment. Whenever possible, we also take steps to reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle. In some cases, we’ll work to recycle recyclable materials (especially metals) versus throwing them in a landfill. We’ve also been able to salvage bulk cardboard and some scrap wood for reuse, which ultimately allows us to dump less in the trash. We also aim to recycle rubber (tires) whenever we can, versus throwing it away. While these steps are small ones, they keep us on the right track and allow us to do our part. |
