Yellow Is Green.......

Woodcock Cycle Has Gone Green

With our new location we have taken several steps to become more environmentally friendly, here are some examples.

- Reused any viable building materials from the previous owner's office layout.

- Recycled the existing store and workshop flooring, reconfigured and reused the existing workbenches, as well as reused old cigarette sales lockers as mechanics tool cabinets.

- Installed ceiling fans in high ceiling areas, on in the winter to circulate heat, Off in the summer to reduce the amount of time the AC is running.

- Re-insulated the entire bicycle showroom, where most of the outdoor walls of our building are located.

- Re fitted all the old light fixtures with high efficient t6 lights and ballasts and installed new t8 lights in our bicycle showroom.

- Retrofitted all non sales areas with motion sensor lights.

- Installed a high efficiency Dual Flush Toilet system.

- Replaced 2 furnace/ac units with more efficient Units.

- Replaced our outside reader board sign with a high efficency LED sign.

- We turn off all the lights every night.

- Our Bags are biodegradeable.

- Our most popular tube sizes are offered in bulk (no packaging)

- We crush and recycle cans and bottles from our pop and energy drinks.

- All of our cardboard boxes are recycled as well as plastic bags and containers.

- Employees are encouraged to cycle to work, and we provide them with bike storage and showering facilities.

- And of course we sell bicycles, a more environmentally friendly alternative to transportation with a wide selection of commuter specific bicycles

These are just a few of the many ways that we make Yellow, Green. If you have any questions regarding our recycling programs please contact our store Environmental Coordinator Craig Ramsden
