Recycling |
We are committed to recycling in our own operations, as well as making it
easier for you, our customers, to recycle in your communities. We use recycled
materials for our shopping bags, signage, and office supplies. We recycle all
of our corrugated cardboard and wood pallets. We also have a program that
keeps drywall separators out of our landfills by recycling them into useable
product.
The Home Depot recognizes that recycling is a lifetime commitment that
requires effort every day of every year. We'll continue to recycle and support
companies that use recycled content. We hope you do, too.
Your Commitment to Recycling
The "3 R's" of being a smart
consumer are easy to remember and put into practice:
-
Reduce: Buy only what you need and there's less to throw away.
-
Reuse: Buy durable, long-lasting products that can be used repeatedly,
or disposable alternatives that reduce resource consumption.
-
Recycle: From used aluminum grills to scrap wood, give new life to your
castoffs and keep them out of landfills and incinerators.
Following these simple guidelines can have enormous environmental impact
including reduced consumption of raw materials and energy, less waste, fewer
landfills, and less pollution.
