The Sustainability Behind Local Sourcing: Shorter Hauls, Lower Emissions

Part of the benefit of working with us here at Dirt Department is our ability to match clients with local sources for ease of access and transport. This process helps us shorten the time it takes to get you matched with a vendor, and it also helps us to achieve our mission of providing services that are both reliable and environmentally conscious.

How do we help?

By matching our clients with local vendors, we are able to ease the distance of transportation. We’re all aware of the effect that long-distance hauling can have on fuel emissions, and that those emissions can negatively affect the environment. By matching you with local vendors, we can minimize emissions, as well as reducing the wear and tear on the vehicles involved in transportation.

It’s cost-effective as well!

We’re all about saving you money, and by connecting clients with soil suppliers or other vendors that are within a close distance ensures that the cost of transportation is not overwhelming. Connecting clients with close by vendors also allows for multiple trips per day, as well as a faster turnaround between pick-ups and drop offs!

In conclusion…

In order to maintain an environmentally conscious presence, it’s important that we provide services that align with that goal. Matching clients with local vendors in order to ease transportation both logistically and ecologically. Working with us means you’re not only helping yourself, but helping the environment as well.
