Benefits for the Environment

Today, businesses need viable, green alternatives to help them reduce their environmental impact and contribute to the greening of our planet.  Document destruction provides an easy, convenient way for businesses and organizations to handle their paper recycling.

• Keep paper and cardboard waste out of landfills.
  Paper makes up approximately 34 percent of the municipal solid waste stream, more than any other material.  Document destruction will help your organization “go green” by reducing waste.
  
  
• Save trees by recycling paper and cardboard waste and reusing it.
  After documents are destroyed, the remaining shred is bailed and sold to paper recycling companies who use it to create new paper goods.  Midway donates a portion of the recycling proceeds to non-profits that serve the disability community.
  
  
• Increase fuel efficiency for Midway trucks.
  Midway coordinates client pick-up routes according to scheduled relocations projects – this way when one of its 200 vehicles goes out for a move, it will come back carrying a load of paper for recycling, instead of being empty.
