Recycle right to ensure long-term viability

Although many businesses offer recycling, programs can vary, and you may be placing the wrong items in the bin. Make a commitment to recycle right at the office.

1) Verify if your office has single-stream or cardboard-only recycling, which could mean the difference between your beverage containers getting recycled and a load of recyclables getting thrown out.

2) Clearly label two containers, one for waste and one for recycling. Complimentary posters and decals for businesses can be downloaded here.

3) Make it a game and have a recycling fashion show, or plant a succulent garden in recycled containers.
