Many Chicagoland businesses are looking for ways to become more sustainable and boost their recycling rates. One way they can do that is through a waste audit. Performing a waste audit can give you a better idea about how your building's waste stream looks. A waste audit allows you to learn what kind of recyclable materials are in your waste stream. A typical building's waste stream has trash, recyclable cans and bottles, and even electronic waste that needs to be dealt with properly. Some businesses and municipalities might also have to deal with yard waste. A comprehensive waste audit can help you give your business a recycling/disposal plan to save money and time.

Think of how much energy it must take to keep a hotel at a comfortable temperature and accommodate every customer's electricity needs. Now more companies in the hospitality industry are working on ways to be more sustainable.
