We here at discount fence strive to continue to become more responsible with the way we impact the environment. We have been doing the the following things since the company started in 1982.
We do thing differently in order to be green:
- We used recycled paper/shredded/recycled newspapers to package all of our boxes!
- We recycle and reuse 90% of our boxes from local manufacturing facilities.
- Minimizing waste from our facilities and increasing recycling!
- We now ship via FedEx which use products such as Green Tonnage, where transport is made using bio-fuels, thereby reducing CO2 emissions!
- We have the option for you to receive estimates and receipts via email, reducing paper usage!
According to a recent study commissioned by the PayItGreen™ Alliance, if one in five households switched to electronic bills, the collective impact would save 151 million pounds of paper, avoid filling 8.6 million household garbage bags with waste and avoid producing 2 million tons of greenhouse gas emissions.
"The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it." (Genesis 2:15)
