At The London House Clearanve Company we take our environmental credentials very seriously. Although our main service is house clearance, London residents should know that this doesn’t simply involve collecting and disposing of the contents of a property in the quickest way possible. As an environmentally responsible company, we always look for the best solutions so that we can run our company in the most environmentally friendly way possible.
85% Target for Recycling
We have set ourselves a target of recycling 85% of all of the contents which we remove from properties during house clearances in London and this is something which we nearly always manage to achieve. We’re aware that it’s a high target, but we want to make sure that we recycle or reuse as much as possible and so we have set high standards to stick to.
We try to reuse as much as we can, which involves sending lots of items to charities who can put them to use in the best ways possible. So not only do we save on the amount of material going to landfill and the energy which would otherwise be used in manufacturing items from scratch, but we also make sure as much as possible is put to good use.
Keeping Green on the Road
All of our vehicles comply with the emission standards of the London Low Emission Zone. In fact, we make sure this is the case even when the vehicles are being driven in London.
On top of that, all of our vehicles have been fitted with GPS units so that the drivers can always find the shortest routes possible and reduce their emissions even further.
Green Practices in the Office
We also take advantage of good environmental practices in the offices we use for our London house clearance service. We have installed low-energy lighting in all of our offices, and we always ensure that all of the computers are switched off when they are not in use. It’s little things like this that can make a big difference when you are trying to run a company in an environmentally friendly manner.
Staff Training
Environmental responsibility begins with the correct training of the staff, so we ensure that all of our staff have the adequate energy-awareness training to help them to spot opportunities to save more energy wherever possible.
Continual Improvements
We are constantly trying to ensure that our environmental credentials are up to scratch, and we are always looking for improvements. For that reason we carry out regular energy audits so that we know where we can make a greater effort to save more energy and continue to improve.
We Care for the Environment
It is our aim to continue to provide the highest quality London house clearance service we can whilst also caring for the environment. If you want to hire a house clearance firm which takes its environmental credentials very seriously then make sure you give us a call.
