Going Green
At Peña’s, we’re doing our part to make sure everybody knows about simple changes they can make in their lives to help our environment. We offer training sessions at our facility or on location to educate our community about recycling benefits. We work with our schools to teach students about the importance of recycling. We work with our state and city agencies on recycling programs. Simply said – we make recycling a priority at Peña’s. So, as a residential or commercial customer of Peña’s, you can rest assured that only materials that cannot be recycled go to the landfill.
