Reuse
Reusing materials is another way to avoid waste in the first place.
Easy ways to reuse:
-
Keep a box of scrap paper available in the office for writing notes.
-
Print draft or informal documents on the back of once-used paper instead of using a clean sheet.
-
Bring dishware and silverware to the office to use in the break-room.
-
Instead of throwing away old documents, shred them and reuse them as packing material.
-
When you get shipments in, save your boxes so that you can use them again for shipments out.
