Rightsize believes that sustainable development is the basis of our future. Our initiatives, from providing sustainable office furniture to decommissioning offices for our clients, yield meaningful insights to the economic, environmental, and social progress of our organization.
The RIGHTSIZE Way
As part of our responsibility to the environment, we run several initiatives in-house: We encourage our employees to reduce printing in order to save paper, to recycle as much as possible and to reuse the use of natural resources. This is because we know that we have to do our part and every little bit makes a difference. But it doesn’t just stop inside our office.
We believe that by diligently repurposing or recycling used office workstation furniture and technology assets, we can significantly reduce the amount of waste we contribute to landfills. Our eco-friendly decommissioning program strictly adheres to the recycling guidelines published by the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.

Whether you’re completely overhauling your space or moving into a new one, we are here to help the process go smoothly for you. Our proven decommissioning process includes everything from asset disposition to space restoration — so you are in good hands every step of the journey.
Rightsize uses EPA-certified methodologies to dispose of outdated technology equipment left in a decommissioned space. Not only do our efforts reduce the amount of non-biodegradable material in landfills, but they also prevent your data from ending up in the wrong hands.
For every project we touch, Rightsize attempts to resell or repurpose all unwanted FF&E assets. And those without resale value are disposed of in compliance with environmental regulations or donated to non-profit organizations. In fact, when we decommission a space, less than 5% of FF&E assets will reach a landfill.
