Looking to create less garbage in your home and contribute to making our environment a cleaner place? You’re in luck! Junkyard Dogs has a few tips on how you can reduce the amount of waste created throughout your day-to-day lives.

 

1. Use reusable towels instead of paper towels

 

You’ll find that small reusable towels or cloth pads are equally as absorbent as paper towels and can easily be tossed in the laundry. Cloth napkins are a good choice too.

 

2. Bring mesh bags for your produce

 

Equally as useful as reusable shopping bags, bringing mesh produce bags to the grocery store and using them instead of the bags the store provides can also cut out a lot of excess plastic waste.

 

3. Sign up for paperless billing

 

Who likes getting bills in the mail anymore? Save some paper every month by opting for automatic payments or digital billing.

 

These are just a few ways you can reduce the amount of waste coming out of your home this holiday season. If you need help with bigger jobs - such as removing old furniture or hauling away yard waste and construction debris - we can help! Give us a call or contact us online to learn more.
