Modern Euro 6 vehicles, Teslas and our first Zero Emission Electric Truck are part of our fleet, to reduce emissions and improve environmental performance across our network.

Energy and resource initiatives

We implement depot-level improvements such as LED lighting, solar power, and water recycling to reduce our environmental footprint.

Continuous improvement through data

We use technology and operational insights to identify opportunities to improve efficiency and reduce emissions over time.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

THINGS PEOPLE ASK BEFORE
THEY WORK WITH US.

We’re actively reducing our environmental footprint through a combination of fleet upgrades, smarter route planning, depot efficiencies, and ongoing investment in cleaner technologies. Our focus is on practical, measurable improvements that lower emissions while maintaining reliable service.

A significant portion of our fleet meets Euro 6 emissions standards, helping reduce pollutants and improve air quality across our operations. We continue to invest in newer, more efficient vehicles as part of our broader sustainability strategy.

Across our owned depots, we’ve implemented initiatives including 100% LED lighting upgrades, improved energy efficiency systems, and waste reduction practices. We also focus on water efficiency and operational improvements that reduce overall resource use.

We track key performance indicators across fuel usage, emissions, energy consumption, and operational efficiency. This data is used to identify opportunities for improvement and guide ongoing investment in more sustainable operations.

Sustainability is embedded within our broader commitment to safety and compliance. Many of the same systems that ensure safe operations (such as maintenance standards, training, and Chain of Responsibility practices) also support more efficient and environmentally responsible outcomes.
