Eco-minded business

Bay Area businesses are recognizing the need to offer environmentally conscious goods and services to their customers.

Value Business Products, a full-service office supply company located in Mountain View, is encouraging local companies to drop off their white paper for recycling. All recyclable white office paper (including computer print-out paper, copy paper, stationery, etc.) may be brought to VBP’s bin, located at 2495 Old Middlefield Way. In addition, they are providing their phone order customers with a complementary pick-up and delivery service of recyclables. Call (415) 962-8900 for general information; for delivery service call (415) 962-8985 or (408) 293-9013.

VBP has selected Bay Area Action to be the recipient of funds generated through this new recycling program. Together, VBP and BAA will promote this effort by informing local businesses of the program. We can help make an impact in our environment and at the same time support BAA.

What is your business doing for the environment? If you’re not sure of the answer, it may be time to call BAA for ideas at 321-1994. Talk to Candice Stark of the Workplace Project, or Recycling Coordinator Bill Weber.
