BUILDING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

The link POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR ONE BUNKER HILL is a comprehensive information regarding air conditioning, construction, move-in and move-in procedures, janitorial, parking, security, maintenance and service calls.

SINGLE STREAM RECYCLING PROGRAM

One Bunker Hill participates in the integrated office paper recycling program. In partnership with DC Environmental we implemented a "Single Stream" Program. It is our goal that all non-recyclable material such as food waste, wrappers, plastics, etc. is disposed into one centralized location in the kitchen. This practice will help saving on cost of plastic liners used for each individual trash can under desks and will streamline the pick up and separation of food waste.

To find out  about waste that can or cannot be recycled click on the link MIXED PAPER PROGRAM.

  • DESIGNATED RECYCLING BINS

The building can provide  two sizes of simple, white cardboard containers, small for desk side or large for copy rooms and kitchens at no charge.

  • RECYCLING OF GLASS BOTTLES AND CANS

Part of this program implements collection of cans, and glass only into separate bins. Large, approximately 23 gallon plastic recycling bins can be purchased from your regular office supplier.

  • HANDLING OF CARDBOARD BOXES

Any cardboard boxes that are to be recycled should be broken down, flattened and labeled for recycling to make it easy to transport by the janitorial staff. Janitors will not pick up your boxes unless they are flattened.

  • E-WASTE DRIVE

Our program also includes a semi-annual pick ups of electronic devices and equipment from a central location in the building. The pick up may be scheduled more frequently depending on the need. A memo will be sent to office managers with the date and time of pick up in advance.

To find out what can and cannot be accepted click on the link E-WASTE DRIVE. 

  • RECYCLING PROCESS DIAGRAM

The link RECYCLING PROCESS illustrates the recycling steps in the program.

We appreciate your cooperation and contribution to the program. Remember that by recycling of 2,000 lbs (1 ton) of paper saves 7,000 gallons of water, 17 trees and 3 cubic yards of landfill space. Thank you for your participation!

SPECIAL COLLECTION - BULKY ITEMS

If you have any bulky items in your office that you want to dispose of such as pieces of old furniture, please contact the Building Management Office. A special pick-up by the disposal service vendor must be arranged. Depending on the size the cost varies, but the minimum cost is $45.00 plus administrative fee.

Leaving bulky items or old electronic equipment in the building's trash disposal room is not permitted.

Also, a 1 cubic yard bin may be ordered for special extra clean-up work of your files at $65.00. Please place an order two days or three days in advance to ensure timely delivery.

 

 

 

ENERGY MANAGEMENT

The rate of energy use has been increasing in office buildings due to added office equipment. As a result, energy consumption increases every year. The following simple conservation measures will make a difference and help reduce the operating costs:

  • Reduce plug load during lunch times by turning off computers, printers and monitors not in use.

  • Turn off the lights when you leave the office (the emergency lighting will stay on).

  • When purchasing new office equipment look for the Energy Star logo indicating energy efficient models. Find more detailed information at www.energystar.gov.

  • If appropriate, use laptop computers - they consume 90% less energy than desktop computers.

  • Set timing for the monitor to be on stand by mode if you are not going to use it during meetings and lunches.

  • Reduce fax traffic by using computer modems.
