SUSTAINABLE SHOPPING AT HABITAT RESTORE

It’s about being responsible for our resources and the planet. We want to live in harmony with nature so future generations can enjoy them too. Sustainability means taking action to reduce the amount of waste we produce, conserving water, recycling materials, and taking care of the environment.

HABITAT RESTORE'S GREEN INITIATIVE

Remodeling, cleaning, downsizing, or just getting organized? Whatever your project is, don’t let the items you no longer need end up in your local landfill. Habitat ReStores divert tons of waste from landfills every year, taking in items that are difficult to dispose of, such as furniture and other used items, appliances, furniture, and other building materials. In many instances, pick-up services are offered for larger objects.

HABITAT RESTORE IS GOOD FOR THE PLANET

When you donate or shop at Habitat GTA ReStore, you are actively part of the solution to the climate change crisis.

So you can keep feeling good about saving money, finding that one-of-a-kind treasure and supporting the construction of more Habitat Homes in our communities while helping the earth.

We think that’s good for everyone.

 

Did you know?

In 2019 we sold 2,363 living room items saving an estimated carbon footprint of 147tCO2e. That’s the same amount of emissions it would take to fly an airplane from Toronto to Hong Kong and back, 33 times.

The average sofa requires an average of 11 products like wood, foam and metal and three manufacturers to complete?

It’s estimated we will run out of landfill space within 11 to 14 years unless we dramatically change course.
