Education/Outreach

We raise environmental awareness and meet your sustainability needs through education and outreach – waste and recycling signs, environmental presentations to property managers, tenants, staff and building occupants.

WASTE AUDITS

A waste audit is an analysis of your building’s daily waste stream.

Waste audits can identify the types of recyclables and waste your building generates and how much can be placed aside for recycling.

  • A waste audit is the very first step in setting up your building or organization’s waste reduction program.

 

  • It reveals to you the types of waste you generate and the quantity, thereby allowing you to know the exact materials you should be targeting in order to reduce your waste.

 

 

  • A waste audit makes it a whole lot easier to identify materials that can be reused or recycled and it also points out materials that should be used less.

 

  • By reducing waste, we preserve natural resources and of course we save money!

 

GF Environmental offers two options for waste audit:

Basic waste audit and Comprehensive waste audit
