Back-to-School Sustainability Tips

As the new school year begins, it's a great time to embrace waste-reduction habits that benefit our environment and wallets. Encourage your family to opt for reusable lunch containers, water bottles, and snack bags instead of disposable options. Choose durable, eco-friendly products that last throughout the school year when shopping for supplies!

Save Water this September

As September brings cooler weather and a change in routine, it's a perfect time to revisit your water-saving habits. Simple actions like fixing leaky faucets, shortening shower times, and using a broom instead of a hose to clean driveways can make a significant difference. 

You can also use our Rain Barrel Rebate and install a rain barrel to collect autumn rainfall for watering plants. Also, remember to adjust your irrigation schedule as the days grow shorter, ensuring your garden gets just the right amount of water.

Recycling Reminder!

Recycling the right way is essential, and we're here to help! Remember to recycle clean paper, cardboard, and bottles, but keep plastic bags out of the bin—they belong in the trash. If you're unsure about an item's recyclability, search for it on the Waste Wizard for quick answers.
