Retailer Diverts Wrapping Paper from Landfills
How much wrapping paper can a Subaru Ascent hold? Mark Miller Subaru knows the answer. Last holiday season the retailer partnered with TerryCycle and Recycle Utah to collect used paper, bows, ribbons, tissue paper, and more. From December 26-January 4, local residents and customers brought in enough to fill over four Ascents.

Retailer Videos Highlight Eco-Activities Inside & Out
See how two retailers tell the story of eco-friendliness inside the dealership and in the community.
Outside: Modesto Subaru
A vacant patch of dirt and weeds was transformed to a safe walk to school, a place to sit and watch pollinators, and a scenic path to visit with friends of the two- and four-leg varieties. Modesto Subaru used video to tell the story. Read more about the garden and Modesto Subaru's additional community engagement.
