ASAP Tent and Party Rentals goes green

Dec. 23, 2009 – ASAP Tent and Party Rentals has announced that the company has moved into a culture of thinking green. The 20-year-old company offers tent rentals, party rentals, linen rentals, tableware rentals, chair cover rentals, along with other accessories for weddings and corporate events.

In an effort to help the planet and the environment, the company has adopted a number of changes, which began several years ago. These changes include recycling all of their cardboard boxes, cutting down on waste and recycling and reusing paper to save trees.

The company has replaced all of their detergent and cleaning products with organic, natural cleaning products that are biodegradable and much safer for the environment. Gasoline burning trucks were replaced with newer, more fuel efficient diesel trucks. Schedule changes were introduced to further enhance fuel savings and reduce carbon emissions.

Indoor heating was changed from oil to propane and natural gas.”Every company can do their part, and all it takes is small changes,” says, Dale Middleton , company spokesman. “By adopting these small changes, we are actually making a bold statement by going green, and when it comes to the health of our planet, every small effort really adds up, added Dale.

Another change that ASAP Tent and Party Rentals has made is the decision to use reusable plastic hangers in place of the one-time use wire hangers that the company previously used. This is a large, important recycling move considering how often the company uses hangers.

These changes are all in addition to the biggest recycling effort of all: using recyclable china and tableware table linen rentals, wedding linen rentals and chair cover rentals over and over again rather than creating waste by simply using disposable products.

To some, these changes may seem small, perhaps even insignificant. However, when it comes to wedding linen rentals companies that do many weddings per year, even these small changes can have a very large, positive effect on the planet.

ASAP Tent and Party Rentals is setting a real example, and hopes that more companies will take their example and “Go Green.”

 “Every company can do their part, and all it takes is small changes,” says Middleton.
