Steps to organize an idle-free campaign

Learn more about why vehicle idling is a problem and think about whether vehicle idling is a concern at your workplace. Implement measures to discourage idling if it is occurring on your premises. Our idle-free campaign resources have some workplace-based tools to get you started.

If your business or industry has a fleet of vehicles, save money on fuel by implementing measures to reduce idling among your drivers. Consider participating in a "fleet challenge" with similar businesses or industries in your community. See our idle-free campaign resources for graphics and communications items that are ready to use.

Work collaboratively with other non-government and government organizations to determine what mix of idle-free initiatives (e.g., workplace-based, school-based, municipal by-law and/or community outreach) will work best in your community. Tell them about this Web site, which offers the information and tools they need to get started.

Consider providing funding or in-kind support to community organizations that are undertaking anti-idling campaigns or projects in your community.
