HR ONE LONDON LIMITED — Recycling and Sustainability Commitment
HR ONE LONDON LIMITED is committed to creating an eco-friendly waste disposal area and developing a comprehensive approach to a sustainable rubbish removal area across the boroughs we serve. Our aim is to combine practical collection, reuse partnerships and a low-carbon fleet to reduce landfill, increase reuse and drive measurable carbon reductions. This page outlines our targets, local transfer station use, charity partnerships and operational steps to deliver green waste management that aligns with local authority recycling standards.We have set an ambitious recycling percentage target of 70% by 2030 for materials diverted from landfill across commercial and communal collections we manage. That target reflects a combination of improved segregation at source, enhanced sorting at transfer stations and pragmatic reuse routes for items with remaining value. Our sustainable rubbish removal area policies prioritise repair, refurbishment and redistribution before recycling, and recycling before energy recovery, to preserve material value and minimise emissions.
To support borough-level approaches to waste separation — for example separate food waste streams, glass and textile collection schemes — we design collection plans compatible with local authority protocols. We operate with clear signage, training and container options that reflect a borough’s preferred stream split: dry recyclables, organics, glass, mixed residual and bulky items. This alignment improves capture rates and ensures material arriving at the waste transfer network can be processed efficiently.
Local Transfer Stations and Efficient Sorting
We partner with a network of local transfer stations to keep the circular economy local and reduce haul distances. Using transfer stations in and around London enables faster route cycles and lower transport emissions, and provides access to mechanical sorting where required. By prioritising nearby materials recovery facilities (MRFs) and organics digesters we shorten the logistical chain and increase the proportion of materials that remain in local recycling markets.
Partnerships with Charities and Reuse Organisations
Collaboration with charities is central to our zero-waste ambitions. We work with registered non-profits to rehome furniture, clothing, electricals and other reusable items from commercial clearances and communal drop-offs. These partnerships expand the capacity of the reuse stream, reduce the volume of items entering the waste system and provide social value: repair training, affordable household goods and community benefit. Our protocols ensure safe handling, data-sanitisation for electronics and transparent tracking of diverted items.As part of our sustainable rubbish removal area strategy we maintain inventory and logistics workflows that match donations to charity partners quickly. Items unsuitable for reuse are separated and directed to specialised recyclers for metals, textiles, WEEE and plastics sorting, ensuring maximum recovery of raw materials.
Low-Carbon Vans and a Greener Fleet
Our transport strategy supports an eco-friendly rubbish removal area through investment in low-carbon vans and route optimisation software. A modernised fleet of electric and hybrid vehicles reduces tailpipe emissions, while telematics and planning minimise empty runs and improve collection density. We prioritise low-emission vehicles for sensitive urban routes and ensure charging or refuelling infrastructure is considered when deploying electric vans.
Operational measures such as consolidation hubs, timed collections to avoid congestion and driver eco-training contribute to a measurable reduction in CO2e per tonne collected. We measure fleet emissions regularly and publish internal targets to reduce transport-related emissions by 40% by 2028 compared with our 2022 baseline.

Practical Recycling Activities Across Boroughs
Many London boroughs separate streams at source; our service reflects these common requirements and encourages best-practice separation where possible:- Food waste — separate organics collection for commercial kitchens and residential bulk schemes.
- Paper and cardboard — baling and delivery to local fibre recyclers.
- Glass — colour-sorted or mixed glass collection depending on municipal rules.
- Textiles and bulky furniture — direct reuse routes with charity partners before recycling.
- WEEE (electronic waste) — secure collection, data sanitisation and components recycling.
To support these activities we run periodic waste audits, provide staff training on source separation and maintain clear labelling across our eco-friendly waste disposal areas. Our clients receive guidance on improving capture rates, and we implement corrective action plans where contamination reduces the effectiveness of recycling. Where borough guidance allows, we offer split-vehicle collections and on-site segregation to support higher recovery rates without compromising health and safety.
Our sustainable rubbish removal area commitments also include continuous improvement reviews, supplier audits for recycling partners and transparent reporting on tonnes diverted, reuse rates and carbon outcomes. By prioritising local transfer stations, charity partnerships and a low-carbon fleet, HR ONE LONDON LIMITED creates practical, verifiable steps toward a circular, low-emission waste service that supports municipal targets and community priorities.
Summary of Key Commitments: 70% recycling target by 2030, priority use of local transfer stations, active partnerships with charities for reuse, investment in low-carbon vans, and borough-aligned waste separation practices. Together these measures form an integrated approach to a greener, more resource-efficient rubbish removal and waste disposal service for London.
