Sustainable Operations
The most significant way we can reduce our impact on the environment is through sustainable operations. We partner with EPA-certified transportation providers and utilize energy-efficient technology in our stores. We recycle millions of corrugated boxes each year and aim to reduce our overall use of paper. These and other sustainability measures also lower costs and enhance our ability to deliver the value our customers have come to expect. Read more about our sustainable operations.
