How to Make your Garage more Environmentally Friendly


Hello [NAME],

I hope you and your family are happily settling into your new home.  From setting up the living room to making sure the garden is just right, there is always a lot to do when you are a new homeowner.  Recently I was doing some reading on things that we can do to make our garages more environmentally friendly.  I must admit, it is not something I had given much thought to before.  I hope you will find this information as beneficial as I did!  And don't forget that if you ever have any questions about home ownership or the real estate market, you can always give me a call at [PHONE].

Sincerely,

HOW TO MAKE YOUR GARAGE MORE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

Eco-friendly choices are a part of an overall lifestyle.  Here are a few handy tips for keeping your garage green and clean!

Keep it tidy! Clean out your garage and be sure to safely do away with any hazardous materials.  Old paint can be brought to a hardware shop for disposal.  Never pour chemicals down the drain!

Choose motion sensor lighting-it's wonderful for security, convenience, and energy efficiency!

Organize all your items and think of ways to reuse or recycle old items.  Unwanted items can be donated to charity.  Host a garage sale to give your old items new homes!

If replacing garage doors, consider choosing an eco-friendly garage door system.

Choose eco-friendly garden accessories, compost bins, outdoor lighting, and pool and spa supplies.

Be sure that the entranceway from your home to your garage is well-insulated to prevent heat from escaping.
