2011 Accomplishments

Mills expands its carbon-free delivery program with its eStar-ev 100% electric delivery truck - the first of its kind in Canada. This truck is a purpose built commercial vehicle that is 100% emissions free, whisper quiet, run 100 miles on one charge and can hold up to a 2-tonne payload. It is estimated that Mills will reduce its carbon footprint by .987 tonnes of CO2 per year. Visit www.estar-ev.com for more information about the vehicle.
   
Mills launches its carbon-free delivery program with a partnership with Shift Urban Delivery. Shift is the first business of its kind in Canada, replacing delivery trucks and vans with a more appropriate and efficient technology for urban distribution: zero-emissions, heavy-duty cargo trikes.

Mills partnered with FrogBox to purchase eco-friendly reusable delivery bins for office supplies. Bins are left with the customer until the next delivery during which time they are encourage to fill the bin with a wide range of recyclables including: pens, markers, toner cartridges, binders and batteries. Inherent in this system is a reduction in the number of deliveries made each week. Contact us today to find out how you can have your goods delivered with our blue bins!
