Earth Day is quickly approaching and this time of year always makes us sit back and reflect upon the great things we’re doing to help our environment – as well as what else we can do! At Belfort Furniture, we strive to help mother nature in any way that we can. Take a peek at some of the efforts behind Belfort Furniture’s mission to be environmentally friendly. Belfort Furniture is going green! We’re making continual steps towards becoming a more environmentally conscious company each and every day. We’re dedicated to finding solutions for the sustainability of the planet. So what exactly are we doing?

For Every Delivery, Belfort Furniture Plant’s a Tree!

Plant a Tree for every Delivery – If you haven’t already heard this one, we plant a tree for each delivery! Working in conjunction with the Virginia Department of Forestry, Belfort plants one tree for every delivery it makes and we have done so since 2007. Belfort’s trees are restoring forests, beautifying our landscape, and helping to offset carbon dioxide emissions.

We’ve Made Efforts To Make Our Showrooms Environmentally Friendly!

LED Lighting – We’ve replaced all of the lighting around the showrooms with LED lighting.

Recycling – Not only do we recycle paper, plastic and aluminum around our showrooms and corporate office, but we’re recycling all of the cardboard materials that come through our receiving dock and warehouse. Belfort Furniture recycles an average of 25 TONS of cardboard a month!

Go Paperless – Internally, we have our own Belfort Buzz newsletter that provides pertinent information to all of our employees on a monthly basis. This year, Belfort Furniture has started to send out our internal Belfort Buzz electronically instead of printing multiple copies for everyone to view.

Some of our future initiatives include going paperless with paychecks, installing motion sensor light switches, and further reducing our paper waste.

As your Loudoun County Furniture Store, Belfort Furniture is currently enrolled in the Loudoun County going green challenge. We’re working together to accumulate points for doing various things that will help us become a green company and reduce our carbon footprint.

Our Employees Go The Extra Mile To Conserve Energy!

A group of Belfort employees carpool to work every day to conserve energy. Along with carpooling comes great laughs, a different radio station everyday (depending upon who’s driving!), and Starbucks stops every morning to get ready for a busy day at Belfort Furniture.

What can you do? These easy steps can not only make your life more organized and a bit easier, but they can help out our environment too!

Recycle – Start simple! Paper, plastic and aluminum!

Bike Ride – Visiting the local town center? Ride your bike to run your errands instead of using your car.

Ideas You Can Do To Help Our Communities in Loudoun County, Virginia to be more eco-friendly!

Book Night – Have a family book night. Instead of watching television or hiding behind your computers, pick some of your favorite books, or some new ones, and get reading!

Google Review - Quality: Excellent, Appeal: Excellent, Service: Excellent - March 5, 2013

My husband and I bought our very first couch at Belfort in January, and we are very pleased with the quality, service and prices at Belfort. The delivery crew made a great effort to deliver the couch around our schedule, and made sure that the couch was in the place that we wanted it. We would recommend Belfort to everyone.
