Rainbow Movers' Dedication to the Environment
Rainbow Movers is committed to conducting business in an environmentally acceptable manner with a focus on continuous improvement in reducing the impact of our operations on the environment. We will work with our employees, suppliers, affiliates, customers and community to fulfill this policy.
Moving2Green is a program initiated to bring awareness both internally and externally to the impacts and initiatives of our industry on the environment. It is also a program to highlight the small changes that collectively can make a large impact. Specifically targeting key areas of environmental impact, Moving2Green sets forward the framework to take action in these key areas.
Rainbow Movers is committed to the following:
- Recognize how our business impacts the environment
- Establish objectives and goals to reduce our environmental impact
- Partner with customers, suppliers and affiliates to assist them in improving their environmental performance
- Incorporate the environment as an element of our company’s culture through the Moving2Green initiative
- Work with other Moving2Green partners whenever possible to service our customers - Report on our performance through management reviews of our program’s results
- Work for continual improvement on our efforts toward sustainability and environmental awareness - Comply with all statutory and regulatory requirements
By improving our performance in these areas, we can begin the process of moving to become more environmentally aware (green). The name “Moving2Green” reflects the continuous process of “moving” toward the objective of lessening our impact on the environment.
It is often said that if you are not moving forward you are falling behind. Our initiative reflects that this is a continuous process, which does not end. As we achieve our goals and change our behavior, new goals must be set, behavior changed and strategy enhanced so that we are continuously improving and Moving2Green.
