Planning


  • Order electrical supplies with recycled content.
  • Double-check the amount off material needed.
  • Ask your vendors to reduce the amount of packaging (pallets, cardboard, plastic shrink wrap, metal bands) delivered to the job site.
  • Ask your vendors to take back non-recyclable packaging for reuse

On-site


  • Separate and recycle cardboard, plastic, metals and wire.
  • Make sure recycling bin and waste bin are clearly labelled.
  • Measure carefully to avoid end cuts.
  • Store materials so they are not damaged.
