As the sole property management company in Central Ohio with an in-house recycling team, Oakwood is expanding its commitment to sustainability every day, in honor of Global Recycling Day (March 18). Oakwood’s recycling program encourages 6,468 residents across 28 communities to reduce their carbon footprint. This initiative will continue to roll out to our residents at our 60+ communities. Designed with convenience and accessibility in mind, residents can place their recyclable items on their doorsteps for weekly collection. Remaining at the forefront of eco-friendly practices, the recycling program now exclusively utilizes electric vehicles for pickup and removal.
Since October 2022, the Oakwood recycling team has diverted four and a half semi-trucks of waste from our landfill. “It's our philosophy that when we try to ‘Be More’, we will ‘Do More’ and when we ‘Do More’ we will ‘Be More,’” explains CEO, Keith Jones. “These zero-emissions electric vehicles raise the bar in our community and support our long-term vision of being at the forefront of our industry for sustainability.”
Oakwood is used to setting the bar higher in Central Ohio. Recognized in 2022 as one of the leading management companies in the nation by the Division ORA Power Ranking, Oakwood attributes its success to its unwavering dedication to delivering kindness, efficiency, and quality in every interaction with every resident, employee, and property owner. This is what makes Oakwood the best of the best. Caring for the environment – where we live and work – is a higher commitment to quality.
