The Albany branch of the MillerCoors brewery company recently had some very exciting news to share. They have become the sixth brewery in the company to go totally landfill free. This means that the 40 tons of waste that they producer every month is now being diverted away from local area landfills and instead being reused and repurposed. The last bit of trash that is part of this equation is shipped off to a facility in Panama City that converts trash into energy.
“We need a successful recycling program and that’s what we installed. We’ve got a re-use program, we had to find folks who would take some of our recycled goods that then they could further recycle and reuse,” said Albany MillerCoors Vice President Tim Dill at a company press event.
Even though it might appear that going 100% landfill free is going to cost the company more, they claim the benefits outweigh the costs. When it comes to getting rid of trash that is a pretty good attitude to have. How would you categorize your “trash attitudes?” Are you keeping up with your own home recycling program? It’s not that hard to sort out paper and plastics to make sure they end up in a recycling bin. The more important question is what will you do with the bigger items like broken kitchen appliances or a bed? You can still keep your carbon footprint low and get rid of those kinds of things when you hire a company like Junk King of the Capital District.
Just like the MillerCoors Company, Junk King has dedicated itself to be extremely eco-friendly for Albany NY. They strive to make sure the vast majority of what they collect is also diverted away from landfills. That policy can apply to those old bedroom sets and mattresses you’re itching to get rid of. When you hire Junk King you’ll have a capable crew of two experience movers and a huge truck at your disposal. That crew will be happy to carry your bed down the stairs and out the door. If you’ve already dragged that bed out to your garage or into the cellar then the Junk King crew will go there to take it out. In other words, wherever you’ve got junk is where Junk King is going to go.
After that junk is loaded up on the back of the truck, Junk King will be making the rounds of the local recycling centers. There is no need to tell them that you would like your stuff to be recycled. The Junk King crew will be doing that automatically without any additional charge. You’ll sleep soundly on your new bed know that Junk King did the right thing with your old bed!
