At NWA Courier, we don’t just talk about sustainability, we build it into our operations. That’s why we’re proud to say that our Bentonville warehouse is fully powered by solar energy.
This solar-powered facility supports every aspect of our daily logistics operation, from dispatch coordination to package sorting and administrative work. Running on clean energy allows us to reduce our carbon footprint while continuing to deliver the fast, reliable, and high-compliance service our customers depend on.
Why Solar?
The logistics industry runs on power, literally. Warehouses are busy, high-demand spaces with lights, computers, communications systems, and in some cases, temperature-sensitive deliveries. By using solar panels to generate our electricity, we’re shifting away from fossil fuels and toward a cleaner, more sustainable way to run our business.

Recycling Everything, the Right Way
In addition to solar energy, we’ve also implemented a warehouse-wide recycling system. Every team member participates by sorting waste into separate color-coded bins: one for plastics, one for cardboard, one for paper, and one for general waste.
It’s a simple habit, but it helps us:
Keep unnecessary waste out of landfills.
Reduce our environmental impact.
Promote a cleaner, more organized workplace.
Recycling isn’t just something we do; it’s part of our culture.
Sustainability That Works
Our sustainability efforts in Bentonville allow us to:
Reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Lower long-term energy costs
Minimize reliance on non-renewable resources.
Lead by example as a small logistics company, making real changes
While many view sustainability as a luxury, we see it as a responsibility, especially when serving industries such as healthcare and technology that are also working to meet ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) goals.
Local Impact, Long-Term Vision
We’re proud that our Bentonville location is a real-world example of green logistics in action. From clean energy to clean sorting bins, we’re proving that even small courier companies can lead with purpose.
Whether it’s route optimization, digital processes, or solar-powered facilities, we’re constantly asking: How can we deliver smarter, cleaner, and better?
Let’s Deliver a Greener Future, together.
