In 2006 we implemented our first recycling center in our Lakeland, FL distribution center. With this recycle center, we were now able to build loads of cardboard, various types of plastics, Styrofoam, and wood. In 2007, we then implemented these recycling centers into all of our large distribution centers. These successful implementations allowed Rooms To Go to make significant improvements in the overall recycle percentages of our distribution centers. Currently our distribution centers are averaging 92% of their entire waste stream being recycled. In 2008, we are implementing the changes that we made at the distribution centers and are implementing them at our retail stores. |
