Roadside bottles in Deale

Bottles around Hardwood will take over 400 years to naturally disintegrate.

Have you seen those clear sparkly things on the side of Route 2? One more than one occasion we have passed piles of plastic bottles scattered down the sides of the roads.   Statistics show globally we buy a million plastic bottle per minute. Now that we know we are the cause of all these bottles, what can we do to help eliminate them?

Our family recently purchased a bottle less water cooler similar to those at bottleless.com.  We had been using the 5 gallon jugs but felt bad even about that.  So now we are bottle less and we use refillable water bottles or glasses, which makes us feel like we are doing our part.  Some people are concerned about having a water line in another part of the house, which could leak and cause water damage to the kitchen or the basement below. 

Using a professional plumber to help us install the water line and verify all the connections were sealed, we felt very comfortable that we are doing the best thing for the environment.  Checking lines when you change the filter to make sure you spot any small leaks ahead of time., is a best practice.

If you find yourself with any type of water damage or in need of water restoration services, call SERVPRO of Edgewater/Deale-Churchton/Lothian 410-867-3590 anytime.
