Environmental

As a family-run company we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of your move and within our own organisation. With the eyes of future generations on us all, we offer a wide range of environmental services to reduce the environmental impact of every removal, clearance or project we undertake.

We have always been at the forefront of actively promoting recycling in connection with our industry. Increasingly we are partnering with our clients and recycling experts to meet environmental targets and help deliver CSR objectives and aims.

By offering environmental services, over the last few years we have recycled, reused and repaired over 200 tonnes of unwanted office furniture and equipment preventing it from going to landfill.

Working together with our sister company and furniture recycling specialists, Eco-Office, even our clearances are environmentally sensitive. Our aim is to send less than 1% of any clearance to landfill through reusing, recycling or repairing any redundant furniture and equipment.

Here are just some of the environmental services we offer. These make a positive impact on the environment and sensitively manage and dispose of unwanted office furniture and equipment.

• Storage
  Let us store your unwanted furniture in our dedicated storage facilities until you need it.
• Re-sell
  Our re-sell team return value to your unwanted spare furniture. We can collect and arrange the resell of quality furniture through our network of furniture dealers and contacts. If you purchase used furniture from us as an existing customer we will donate 10% of the profits to our designated charity.
• Donate
  Each year we donate used furniture and equipment to those in need it most. We support homeless, military and business charities to help rebuild lives and create opportunities.
• Recycle
  We work hard to sort all our waste, separating the metal from the wood, the wheat from the chaff. That way we are confident that we are sending the smallest amount possible to landfill and the largest possible amount for recycling. Find out more about our recycling partners Bristol Waste
• Repair
  Don’t discard your tired furniture, replace those wonky wheels or broken locks! If we have a spare we’ll pop it in the post to you as all part of our service.
• Refurbish
  We offer a full range of refurbished furniture at a fraction of the cost and environmental impact.

As part of our environmental service, we’ll calculate the carbon saving on any clearance we make. This can be included in your CSR target or environmental KPI. So, if you are upgrading IT equipment, moving offices or simply have excess to requirements please call us for free advice on reducing its environmental impact.

As a company we also take a keen concern on our own environmental impact, adapting to tread as lightly as possible on our surroundings.​
