About Us

Built Around Sustainability and Compliance

Most providers send the difficult waste streams elsewhere. We’ve been treating them ourselves since 2000, starting with lamps in Scotland and growing to cover every WEEE category in-house.

Sustainability

Every load is responsibly treated and traced, keeping hazardous waste out of landfill.

Purpose

A Certified B Corporation™, balancing profit with purpose and high ethical standards.

Community

A Real Living Wage employer, investing in our people and supporting local causes.

Trust

Licensed, accredited and fully traceable, with the paperwork to prove it on every collection.
