OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Service is just one way that we connect with and work to help transform our communities. We develop long-term, impactful relationships with our partners, and volunteering is integral to building those connections. We give our team members time to volunteer, because without our community partners, we wouldn’t be The Honickman Companies®.

Protecting the environment
As the proverb says: “We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors. We borrow it from our children.”
We strive to embrace sustainability in everything we do. We participate in driving change in our industry, and we always remember that everything we do has an impact on our environment.
PROPANE-POWERED TRUCKS
OUR RECYCLING INITIATIVE
We embrace emerging technologies to ensure our vehicle fleet minimizes our environmental footprint. Beginning in 2018, we started to outfit our fleet with trucks that run on natural gas and propane. By reducing our carbon footprint, we are reducing gas emissions and making sure that The Honickman Companies® are sustainability leaders in our industry and beyond.
Packaging waste is an urgent problem, and overconsumption challenges our ecosystem. It is why we have taken steps to use more sustainable packaging, and have been a longtime advocate for recycling practices that go beyond the role of consumers. Our focus is to drive progress toward a more sustainable packaging across the industry and encourage our consumers and partners to do the same. In 2020, we recycled more than 5.9 million pounds of post-consumer material.
