Businesses are a crucial part of our initiative to clean up Calcasieu Parish. As a business, you play a vital role in changing the culture around litter, starting from the standards you set for your employees. We can provide you with the tools needed to train and equip your staff to help build a cleaner, safer work environment.
Commit to a Clean Office Style
Try picking up a certain amount of litter per week or per month. Five pieces, 10 pieces, 25 pieces—anything makes a difference.
Try using more sustainable office products.
Implement a recycling routine (see Team Green for info on drop-off sites in Lake Charles).
Buy a water filter to cut down on plastic bottles.
Follow us on social media for tips, education and more.
We provide resources and messaging to make it easy for your business to participate. We can provide you with talking points, data, ready-to-use copy for newsletter and email outreach, and ways to incorporate Pick It Up into your safety training.
We’ll provide the collateral material—a variety of Pick It Up Calcasieu items—at no charge, including storefront signs, litter bags, stickers, and more. This will help spread awareness among your employees and customers.
Our litter management team can come to your business and host a presentation about making more sustainable choices as a company and as individuals. Schedule a presentation today.
We work with local law enforcement to ensure litter laws are enforced and up-to-date. Click below to see how and why we’re issuing heavy litter penalties and fines.
