Steps to Establishing a Sustainability Program
Atlanta, GA – October, 2011 – Increasingly businesses and building owners are becoming interested in creating sustainability programs that allow them to be more respectful of their environment and realize cost-savings through reductions in waste sent to the landfill.
For some organizations, the motivation behind a sustainability program is in support of a corporate mission. For some building owners the motivation is to attract those tenants interested in being “more green.” In many cases the struggle for both is the same: where to start.
As a full-service consulting firm with expertise in waste management and recycling, Southern Waste & Recycling is uniquely positioned to be your starting point.
Regularly we encounter operators of multiple-materials facilities confused about who to call or where to go. Southern Waste & Recycling can make arrangements for the collection, separation and distribution of single and multiple streams of waste ranging from paper products and aluminum to wood pallets and Styrofoam containers. We can work with your firm to help identify cost-justification for establishing a plan, opportunities for savings as well as projections of long-term impact on the environment.
Building owners interested in establishing a program where participation isn’t mandatory face their own set of unique challenges. We also work with commercial and multi-location facilities to not only make collection points accessible but to make being green more attractive with signage and educational materials to share with their tenants.
