There is more than one reason why a Glasgow office should cut back on paper consumption, one of these is the large amount of money you could save, then there are all the trees you could be saving and also because paper is perhaps not the most secure way to keep confidential information protected.

So for companies moving to an office in Glasgow then here are some top tips to make it a 21st century paperless office, as compiled by officebroker.com.

1) Firstly, work out where in Glasgow is your nearest recycling facility. You need to know where the facility is and which roads to take to get there from the office. It is also a good idea to organise a collection service, as depending on your exact location in Glasgow it may be quite far to the recycling plant.

2) Next, you should use emails rather than paper and snail mail. The move effective and easy to implement ways to reduce paper usage in the office is to use IT based messaging to to connect with other staff instead of sending letters or memos. By using this technique you will be able to reduce the money spend in the office and you will also make workers ...
... a lot more productive as they won't have to wander through the office passing a memo or letter but rather they can just click on send to action an email.

3) Marketing materials, journals and even the daily papers can all be received electronically, which means there is no longer a need for a paper copy. This is the case as this use of paper is perhaps one of the most, if not the most, wasteful and inefficient use of paper that there has ever been. What I mean by this is that 99 percent of the time papers and magazines just end up in the trash, so it is just a big waste of paper. Also if you subscribe to an electronic version of a magazine you will then be able to utilise the content of journals in a report or presentation more easily than if you had a paper copy.

4) Replace post-its with an office white board. Your workers all need somewhere to make the odd note and more often than not this is on a yellow post-it note but in a low paper office you could buy a whiteboard and use that instead. This is because a whiteboard is reusable and is a good way to jot down reminders or make notes about an important project. As a result a whiteboard is a great way to cut back and minimise the sheets of paper that are used in your office. So if you have made the move to Glasgow serviced office from officebroker.com, then you should go to the nearest shop and buy a whiteboard.

5) Finally, reducing paper isn't just about A4 consumption it applies to so much. It can also mean using electric hand-dryers in the toilet instead of paper towels and by replacing paper throw away cups with real and reusable mugs. There are dozens of simple things you can do to cut back on the amount of paper you use, it might even be something as easy as putting up posters give your staff advice on how to save paper.

Quite recently one of our associative firms made the move to a Glasgow office and they used the office relocation as a way to implement new recycling and paper usage guidelines. When everyone settled into the new procedures the managers found that they were making a substantial saving and also minimising their effect on the environment.
