Employees of Green Storage, which operates eight self-storage locations in Ontario, participated on Feb. 22 in “Coldest Night of the Year” (CNOY), a walk-a-thon that raises money for local charities serving the homeless and needy in 144 Canadian communities.

When it comes to building sustainable self storage facilities, there aren’t many companies that match the commitment of Green Storage. The company just doesn’t place solar panels on its rooftops and limit energy use at its facilities. On the contrary, their first consideration when doing anything is sustainability. And that eco-friendly mindset has paid off in more than one way. As a matter of fact, it recently earned their facility in Ajax the Sustainability Champion Business Excellence Award from Ajax Pickering Board of Trade. “This award is very meaningful to the company,” says Jeremy Freedman, general manager for Green Storage in Toronto, Ont. “It shows our efforts are paying off, and hopefully we will continue to win more awards.”
