Go Green

RC Willey believes it is important to be green.

We are continually expanding our efforts to protect the environment.

We Recycle Your Old Appliances

When you purchase a new appliance from RC Willey, our delivery truck drivers will haul away your old appliance free of charge. Instead of dumping it at the landfill, we take your used appliance to our distribution centers to be recycled. There, the freon (gas in fridges), copper, and scrap metal are all recycled. We pick up approximately 117 old appliances to recycle a day! That's nearly 700 a week, or 2,800 a month!

We Use Energy-Friendly Light Bulbs

In our warehouses and corporate offices, we've switched out all of our florescent lights and replaced them with more efficient alternative bulbs, savings thousands of dollars in energy costs.

Natural Wildlife Federation Recipient Award

RC Willey has been recognized for receiving the Natural Wildlife Federation and Sustainable Furnishings Council Recipient Award. RC Willey’s long-term intention is to buy whenever possible from furniture manufacturers that adhere to independent standards for sustainable sourcing and use of recycled/reclaimed materials. We recognize the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) as an important tool to promote responsible forest management and have a preference for sourcing FSC-certified wood furniture as it becomes available.

RC Willey is also committed to avoiding wood from unacceptable sources including:

llegally harvested or traded timber
Timber harvested in violation of traditional or civil rights
Timber harvested from areas in which high conservation values are threatened by poor forest management

Timber harvested from areas being converted from forests to plantations or non-forest use
Timber from forests in which genetically modified trees are planted

We Recycle

With the 5,500 pieces of new inventory that are delivered to our main warehouses every day, we end up with a lot of waste (boxes, packaging materials, etc). RC Willey has balers that recycle plastic, styrofoam, and cardboard. If trash doesn't fit into one of these three recycle bins, it's taken to the landfill. We have reduced our reliance on landfills by over 85%.

We Have Motion Sensor Lights in Our Warehouses

We have motion sensor lights in all of the aisles of our distribution warehouses. Each aisle consists of three sections. If there is 10 minutes of inactivity in a section, the lights switch off. This significantly cuts down our energy usage on a daily basis.

We Select Our Papers Carefully

RC Willey ads are printed on lighter weight papers produced using less fiber, fewer chemicals, and less energy in the manufacturing process. We also have a recycling program at our corporate offices. 17 trees are saved with every ton of paper shredded or recycled! That adds up!
