Our values

Our values
Practical

Easy to use, hassle-free service to suit your office, whether you have 2 staff or 5,000. We can help every step of the way to set up and run your recycling scheme.

Reliable

We collect your recycling from anywhere in your office. We visit on the day we say we will, keeping your office tidy and you happy.

Ethical

We maximise the value of your recycling by keeping paper separate from other materials.

Last year we donated £20,000 to environmental charities.

Our promise

Our values
  • We will collect anything from your office that can be practically and legally recycled.
  • Everything we collect is recycled, nothing recyclable is thrown away
  • We will always try to maximise the environmental value of your waste and provide full transparency of our processes
  • High quality allows us to recycle 75% of your waste in the UK (99% in Western Europe).

Real recycling

Our values
We are committed to recycling at the highest environmental standards and we continue to provide source separated recycling.

We are against comingled recycling for the following reasons:

  • Energy is used to separate the materials.
  • Paper mixed with other recyclables become useless.
  • Some comingled recycling exploits cheaper labour in developing countries.

We urge London to stand behind us and say no to rubbish recycling!
