While we have a <br /> wide variety of recycling and reuse programs across our office and warehouse <br /> facilities, our largest impact is in two areas: reducing distribution center waste from <br /> packaging and other materials and managing electronic waste. In addition to <br /> addressing packaging waste and electronic waste, our other efforts include: <br /> Use of digital documentation when possible and recycling shredded paper <br /> documents when used <br /> Recycling and composting of cafeteria waste <br /> Elimination of plastic bottles from vending machines in our offices and <br /> warehouses <br /> Elimination of single-use plastic cups <br /> Company-wide internal toner cartridge recycling program <br /> Recyding centers on each floor of our office locations <br /> Recycling chutes for certain materials at our distribution centers <br /> Collaboration across procurement functions to reduce the need for consumable <br /> supplies and increase recycling possibilities across our offices <br /> Global Social Impact: CDW makes technology work so people can do great things. <br /> When it comes to the impact we have on our communities, we know greatness <br /> happens when everyone has equitable opportunities.
