QMM and Allied are working together for a greener tomorrow!

Dec. 4, 2009

Allied Van Lines is excited to announce our association with Tree Canada, the

country’s largest tree planting organization! Tree Canada has planted over 76 million trees since 1992 and plays a major role in maintaining tree programs and

educating the public about environmental stewardship. Recognizing the impact of carbon emissions on the environment, Allied Van Lines has committed to planting

15,000 trees over the next three years. These trees will aid in offsetting carbon emissions produced as a result of our industry. These trees will be planted throughout Canada and will provide a living legacy for our environment and Canadians to enjoy for years to come. Tree facts:

· Over 80 years, an average Canadian tree will absorb 200 kg of carbon dioxide.

· Every day one large tree provides enough oxygen for four people.

· Trees reduce water runoff and prevent pollutants entering into our waterways.

· Trees cool cities by lowering heat islands in the summertime.

· Native wildlife call trees their home.

· Trees lift our spirits by providing a psychological boost.

· Each healthy tree can reduce airborne dust particles by as much as 7,000 particles per litre of air, thus a healthy tree is a free standing air conditioner and purifier.

With over 75 years of experience, Allied Van Lines is one of the world’s largest

and most trusted moving companies. Allied has operations, franchises and agents in over 175 countries. To learn more about Allied’s association with Tree Canada
