3. The RD Weis Companies 2010 Earth Day celebration was all about one thing: Keep It Clean! (By staying out of the landfill.) You know all those old samples and sample books gathering dust in your office? This Earth Day, RD Weis Companies helps you reclaim and recycle—and keep away from the waste stream. The first week of April, visited your offices and dropped off a reclamation box for all your carpet samples, carpet sample books, and VCT /LVT samples—all are welcome, no matter who the manufacturer. The second week of April, we collected the boxes, and sent samples and books back to their manufacturers or back to mills to be recycled and reused. RD Weis Companies: Earth Day 2010

This our way of thanking you for helping us provide the highest level of environmentally friendly service in the commercial flooring industry, by using Green materials, methods, and processes, and by helping our customers reduce, reuse, and recycle, for the sustainable future of Earth.
