One description of sustainability is: Extending the use of current
resources while at the same time reducing the need for future resources.
Your Cart-Away Supply® store will demonstrate sustainability on two
fronts:
First, you sell landscaping materials (EarthGoods™) that are used to
reduce energy consumption.
A well designed landscape will:
Cut both summer and winter energy consumption.
Protect structures from weather damage or replacement costs.
Reduce water consumption.
Help control noise and air pollution..
Cart-Away Supply stocks these EarthGoods to promote
conservation and then provides the delivery vehicles to reduce the
impact on local streets.
Cart-Away EarthGoods are used in a variety of landscape projects in
the community and responsible landscaping will not only be eye-pleasing, but
will lower energy bills.
Second, we have a delivery system that reduces the impact of trucking on
local streets. Heavy trucking damages the roads into the neighborhoods as
they deliver landscape supplies to each household. These heavy loads force
communities to use
additional resources to patch streets and to repair damaged curbs, gutters
and watering systems.
Cart-Away promotes the sustainability of these assets through using
lighter, less destructive delivery methods.
Sustaining our future resources through landscape conservation does little
good if we damage our current resources delivering the materials to each job
site. This is why Cart-Away is a pioneer in the small batch
delivery system and the champion of sustainable solutions.
