FunRent - About US

Doing Our Part

New - FunRent was just named one of only 48 companies in the United States as a Grow & Go Partner by the Environmental Protection Agency. We are a member of SmartWay, a partnership between the transportation industry and the US Environmental Protection Agency. SmartWay was formed to help those of us that use delivery vehicles lessen our impact on the environment. Through the partnership, we will be able to implement the industry's best ideas and practices in regards to saving fuel and reducing emissions.

At Fun Rent, we care about our impact on the environment. While we realize our contributions are small, we are proud to lead our industry in doing everything we can to be a good environmental citizen. Here are some of our policies we hope are reducing any negative impact we leave behind:

►	We've discontinued printed catalogs. We simply could not justify the impact of all that paper and ink on the environment. We keep our website completely up to date so you can see how much we have to offer.
►	We arrange our delivery routes to require as little driving as possible. That reduces our carbon emissions and consumption of petroleum products.
►	We use *biodiesel* in our diesel engines.
►	We *change the oil and filters* in all our engines - trucks and generators - well before the manufacturers recommended intervals. That keeps our engines running at peak efficiency levels.
►	All used oil, filters, and fluids (transmission, antifreeze, etc.) are sent to *recycling centers* even though it costs us more.
►	We *print only what's necessary* for us to conduct our business reducing our consumption of paper.
►	Used paper, plastic, and metal products are sent to *recycling centers* even though we pay extra.
►	The vinyl from retired inflatables is recycled as repair materials.
►	Our vehicles are washed at centers that recycle or filter the waste water.
►	Retired computer equipment is sent to *recycling centers*

While our efforts may be small in comparison to larger corporations, we are trying to do our part. We invite you to join us in the effort to make our environment a cleaner place.
