Mansion Green Policies & Practices
We invite
guests to help us to help the environment in our efforts to “go green” as much
as we reasonably can in the following ways:
|
ASK FOR
PITCHERS OF FILTERED WATER and glasses from the kitchen to minimize use of
single-use bottles
|
|
(INTERMITTENT) LINEN SERVICE as requested for multiple nights: sheets and
towels are changed upon request, if noticeably soiled, or on the third day
of a multiple night reservation.
|
|
POWER
DOWN: Turn off room lights and power strips with appliances plugged in when
not in use and when you leave the room.
|
|
CLOSED
DOORS & WINDOWS IN AIR CONDITIONED or HEATED ROOMS: Please do not leave
doors on windows open when the heat or air conditioning is on in the
buildings. Please allow an adjusted thermostat to regulate to room
temperatures with doors and windows closed.
|
|
RECYCLE:
Please separate recyclable materials such as containers, bottles, and papers
so that we may add them to our recycle bins. A blue recycle bin is located
near the kitchen on the first floor.
|
|
Guests can recycle:
plastic containers, glass bottles, plastic bottles, aluminum cans, steel
cans, newspapers, office
paper, etc.
|
We encourage
green group events!
|
Consider
using quantities
of tableware, linens, and food service items available in storage or rented
from a caterer that can be washed rather than disposable items.
|
|
Consider
disposable food service items that
can be recycled and / or made with recycled content
|
|
We adhere to Fats, Oils and Grease
(FOG) Best Practices kitchen standards in Hampton Roads to preclude clogging ingredients
entering local water / sewer system. Fats,
oils and grease from cooking will be disposed of in the trash once solid,
and not poured down the sink (plates should be scraped and dry wiped before
washing).
