For quite a while now Moore Accountancy have been actively recycling and trying to reduce paper waste.

As a firm we are using email for 95% of our correspondence and print/post out letters and documents to a small 5% of our client base who either do not have access to a computer or are unable to use the internet proficiently.

We are currently working on a project to integrate a portal to our systems, so that clients can click, sign and confirm acceptance of documents without having to print, sign and scan back to us – more on this in future newsletters.

 

Separate to this we are conscious of the effect of not recycling for our environment, and have now signed up as a partner for some TerraCycle recycling programmes.

TerraCycle is an innovative recycling company that has become a global leader in recycling typically hard-to-recycle waste, and you can find out more about them here.

We are currently partners and a drop off point for 3 schemes, details of which can be found below.

So, if you want to recycle your toothbrushes, your shampoo bottle lids and your crackers wrappers then please start collecting and then drop them off in the dedicated bins at the side of our property.

Trafford and other local authorities recycle lots of plastic, foil and paper but what we are recycling are the products that generally end up in the bin.

Have a look at the links and support us if you can 🙂

The Colgate® Oral Care Recycling Programme

Any brand of toothbrushes, electric and battery toothbrush heads, toothpaste cartons (but please use your normal cardboard recycling where available), toothbrush packaging and toothpaste tubes and caps (see downloadable poster here)
