As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and our journey toward becoming net zero, we’re excited to announce the installation of EV chargers at the 1st Waste HQ! ⚡🚗
The installation process was quick and seamless, thanks to the fantastic team at South Coast EV & Contracting Ltd
A big thank you to Alex and Peter, who took care of the setup, gave us a full walkthrough, and assisted with the app installation. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and a pleasure to work with, we’d highly recommend them!
♻️ 1st Waste Management: Driving Sustainability for CSC Buying Group Members
In today’s eco-conscious world, waste management is more than a service—it’s a strategic advantage. 1st Waste Management, one of the UK’s leading waste brokers, delivers a powerful sustainability-led approach that can help CSC Buying Group members boost compliance, cut costs, and enhance environmental credentials.
🌍 Sustainability at the Core
Carbon-conscious operations – 1st Waste actively measures and fully offsets its CO₂ emissions through a Verified Carbon Standard scheme. By doing so, they neutralise the carbon impact of their own operations—aligning with high standards of environmental responsibility.
Holistic circularity – They implement the full spectrum of the waste hierarchy: reduction, reuse, recycling, and recovery—only sending unavoidable waste to disposal. Their model mirrors best-practice principles.
🤝 Proven Partnership in Action
Their work with Busy Bees nurseries exemplifies an educational and environmental triumph. Implementing “one colourful bin at a time,” they engage children in sorting and recycling food waste—turning leftovers into compost or energy. As Hollie Pomfret from Busy Bees noted, “our children are actively participating in recycling efforts… it sparks conversations about the circularity of the process”
