CPS Real Estate Goes Green

Being eco-friendly has become a way of life for many of us in Sonoma County, but when it comes to going “green” in the workplace, not all companies have chosen to take responsibility for their impact on the environment.

However, Creative Property Services (CPS Real Estate) is taking matters into their own hands and has recently announced their “Project Green” campaign. CPS’s new Green campaign will not only create a more eco-friendly company, but it is also designed to help educate the community about how they can live “greener” lives as well.

A few of the measures that CPS has implemented in their Green Campaign include:

• Using only recycled paper for copiers, printers and fax machines.


• Creating online forms in lieu of paper ones.


• They utilize motion sensor lights to save energy.


• Their sales agents carpool when going on tours and showing homes.


• Their offices have a water filtration system to help cut down on wasteful plastic containers.


• They offer virtual tours on their website to reduce the need for clients to repeatedly drive to properties.


• They are switching their sign company to one that uses recycled signposts.


• They use email and fax-to-email programs for sending information to their agents and clients.


• They are not only recycling paper/plastic/aluminum products, they also recycle toner cartridges and electronic equipment such as computers, monitors and keyboards.

CPS will continue to build on these ideas as part of their long-term commitment to reduce their impact on the environment and to encourage corporate and individual responsibility for keeping our planet green.
