Our goal is to minimize solid waste materials sent to landfills and to maximize recycling of usable materials. At our distribution center, each year we recycle over 800 tons of material including all packaging materials, supplies and even garbage.
Virtually anything that
can be recycled
is recycled
- Cardboard
- Plastic
- Bedding
- Paper
- Wood
- Styrofoam
- Glass
- Metal
Other “green” initiatives in the Levin Distribution Center include:
- Energy efficient fans throughout the warehouse to reduce HVAC usage/costs
- Motion sensitive lighting
- Conversion to energy efficient light bulbs and fixtures
- Utilization of fuel efficient delivery vehicles
- Implementation of programmable digital thermostats
- Use of “green” cleaning products
At Levin’s, we are one of the few furniture companies in the country utilizing a Styrofoam densifier machine. All Styrofoam is “densified” and recycled back to the manufacturers. This alone has eliminated over 40 (53’) trailer loads of Styrofoam being disposed of into landfills.
