Get Lower Heating Costs without Sacrificing Comfort
 With the arrival of colder weather this fall and winter, it can be tempting to crank up the thermostat, leading to higher heating costs. In Texas, heating and cooling accounts for as much as 40 percent of your home’s energy usage. Luckily, there are many ways you can reduce your energy consumption and stay warm this winter. Check out our blog for eight tips to save money on your heating bill.
Is Wrapping Paper Recyclable?
 Recycling is important because it helps to reduce waste, conserve energy, and preserve natural resources; however, we only recycle about one third of our trash. Over the winter holidays, we generate about 25 percent more waste, making recycling even more critical. Some of our holiday waste, such as gift wrap, can be hard to recycle. Check out our blog to learn how to reduce and recycle your gift wrap waste.
