Our Commitment to the Environment

At Lamar, we are committed to sustainable business practices. Our ongoing strategies are designed to improve operational and energy efficiency, while minimizing our impact on the environment.

We have spent years spearheading innovation in energy efficiency, lighting control, renewable energy and recycling. We are constantly seeking out and evaluating new technologies and processes that will allow this important work to continue.

Recycling Billboards
After a billboard is taken down, it doesn't go to the landfill. Lamar has a dedicated recycling program to capture all materials post-use and re-purpose into new products.
