Your Building is Unique
Our LEED-accredited experts assess your building’s waste and environmental needs
and develop a comprehensive, customized plan to make your building greener, leaner,
and more successful.
Core Services
Waste Stream Management
Transporting and disposing of waste in landfills is expensive – and as landfill
space diminishes in the years to come, it’s only going to get more expensive. Sustainable
waste management means targeting all possible recyclable and reusable materials
in your building and removing them from the waste stream so they don’t end up in
a landfill. This benefits both the environment and your bottom line.
DC Environmental will manage every aspect of your building’s waste management program
beginning with a review of your current waste removal process to identify areas
to maximize efficiency. This includes reviewing the frequency of your service, the
type of equipment being used, and recycling diversion potential. DC Environmental
will provide consolidated invoicing, regulatory compliance assistance and more so
you can keep your focus where it belongs – on your building, staff and tenants.
Recycling
A successful recycling and diversion program is not as simple as just putting a
recycling collection bin behind your building and sending it away when it’s full.
However with DC Environmental’s expertise, your building can recycle its office
paper, bottles, cans, electronic items and more with little or no extra effort.
DC Environmental will design and provide full implementation and support for your
building’s recycling program, including comprehensive training, education, and program
support for staff and tenants, procuring common area and desk side recycling containers
and monthly diversion recycling reports to track progress and savings.
eCycling (Electronic Waste Recycling)
Computers. Printers. Scanners. Laser Cartridges. Telephones and cell phones. Fax
machines. Televisions and DVD Players. Stereos. As the use of electronic products
in buildings grows, it becomes more and more important to find safe, cost-effective,
sustainable ways to manage the end of their lifecycles.
DC Environmental will help your building find ways to recycle or reuse electronic
equipment or components in accordance with local and federal regulations rather
than adding them to the waste stream. We can also organize, promote and manage eCycle
Collection Days for your building to ensure safe, legal collection and maximum diversion
of your E-Waste.
