New Classic Home to Get Green Market Award

The presentation will take place at New Classic’s showroom at 135 S. Hamilton St. in High Point.

The Green Market Award is given to companies that properly handle trash and recycling during High Point Market. New Classic is being honored for its work during the Fall High Point Market.

A typical Market event generates over 500 tons of cardboard in addition to other recyclable material, all of which is recycled by the city. However, showrooms that comply with city guidelines help the city to ensure that the collection of recycling and trash runs smoothly during a hectic time for the Public Services Department. New Classic Home Furnishings consistently followed collection guidelines, contributing to the clean and safe environment that participants have come to expect.

“Business partners like New Classic Home Furnishings are just what the City of High Point needs,” said High Point Mayor Bill Bencini. “By properly handling their trash and recycling during Market last fall, New Classic made it easier for our Public Services Department to keep downtown clean thereby making it a more inviting place to visit and to do business for the thousands of people who come to our city each year.”

The Green Market Award is presented bi-annually, recognizing one showroom after each Market.
