10 years ago, we introduced our eco-friendly moving services. We designed our entire line of moving boxes into reusable moving containers. These containers are made from a plastic material that at the end of their life span are recycled into new ones. If you are planning to move with Arthur Werner Moving & Storage, Inc locally, you are encouraged to try an eco friendly move. If we are performing the packing for you, these containers will arrive with the packing team. If you are planning to pack yourself, you can still utilize these containers. They will be delivered in advance and retrieved after you have completed unpacking. You may wonder if these boxes are clean. Yes, they are very clean. After each use, these boxes are cleaned and sanitized in house. Furthermore, we have and can provide inserts for the containers. However, please be aware that these inserts are not recyclable..
Moving can be a stressful time for you, but it can also be a stressful time for the environment if you're not careful. Here are some tips for making your move more eco-friendly:
-
Use eco-friendly packing materials: Avoid using plastic bubble wrap and opt for biodegradable packing materials such as recycled paper, reusable moving blankets, or packing peanuts made from cornstarch.
-
Donate or recycle unwanted items: Instead of throwing away unwanted items, consider donating them to a local charity or recycling them. This helps to reduce waste and gives your items a second life.
-
Choose a green moving company: Look for a moving company that has a commitment to reducing their environmental impact. Some companies use hybrid or electric moving trucks, while others may offset their carbon emissions.
-
Use reusable containers: Instead of using cardboard boxes, consider using reusable containers or boxes made from recycled materials. This can reduce waste and be more cost-effective in the long run.
-
Pack efficiently: Try to pack your items as efficiently as possible to minimize the number of trips required. This reduces fuel consumption and carbon emissions from transportation.
-
Use environmentally friendly cleaning products: When cleaning your old home or your new one, use environmentally friendly cleaning products that are non-toxic and biodegradable.
By following these tips, you can make your move more environmentally friendly and reduce your carbon footprint.
