WASTE DIVERSION

Recycling Program CommonWealth Partners fully supports waste reduction at this property. Our recycling program has a goal of recovering and recycling over 75% of the total waste that is generated at this site. Through this program, we want to educate you on how to reduce waste.

Contact the Property Management Office to obtain recycling containers that are available for your space.

Here are a few strategies you can implement now that will help toward this effort: Print media and marketing materials on recycled and FSC certified paper
Using less printed materials in favor of electronic copies
Refill toner and printer cartridges instead of purchasing new
Properly dispose of furniture and office equipment (donate and/or recycle) For external printing, request soy vegetable based ink Each desk, printer, & kitchen has recycling/trash can set
Cancel unwanted paper publications and subscriptions or register for e-newsletters
Replace paper towels for hand dryers

Offering water refilling stations with re-usable containers instead of single-use bottles Encourage re-usable coffee cups, silverware, and plates instead of disposables

Consider catering options with the goal of less single-use plastics and food waste Find additional strategies in our Green Office Guide.

E-Waste Recycling
All of CommonWealth Partners’ properties participate in an annual E-waste event that typically takes place during Earth Day week in April. Please contact the Property Management Office for the next scheduled E-waste event or to make a special request for pickup.

Compost
Compost receptacles are available throughout the facility. Please contact the Property Management Office if you are interested in composting within your tenant space.
