Office Recycling, Composting and Garbage Disposal

If you are concerned about the amount of waste your office produces, it is time to reduce or reuse. To do this, you will need to conduct a waste audit to see the items that are making their way into your waste stream. Then, see which items you could eliminate, and which ones could be used again.

Paper is usually one of the main components of office waste. To reduce paper waste, you should encourage employees to think and edit before they print and use both sides of a sheet of paper. Keep digital office files and share information via email instead of printed memos. To reduce other types of waste, purchase products with little or no packaging. When you receive shipments, save boxes and use them for outbound shipments. Also, provide reusable utensils, plates and cups so employees do not need to use disposable items and encourage them to pack lunches in reusable containers. Lastly, ensure you purchase high-quality equipment that is durable and will not become obsolete quickly.

While you can reduce the amount of garbage your office produces, you won’t be able to eliminate waste, despite your best efforts. So, after you’ve exhausted your options for reduction and reuse, you will need to start exploring office recycling and composting options.

What is office recycling and composting?

Recycling takes materials that would otherwise be considered waste and makes them into new products. For organic waste, there is composting—a process that breaks down organic waste into soil amendment or soil conditioner. These activities reduce the need for landfills, lead to less harmful greenhouse gas emission and save energy. Therefore, through office recycling and composting you can play your part in protecting the environment.
