Zero emission freight can only be achieved in cities by switching diesel to electric vans and also e-cargo bikes, which could replace up to 9% of van kilometres driven in central London by 2025 and up to 17% of van kilometres by 2030. Great to spot @firstmile playing their part!

Did you know that the UK sends around 250,000 tonnes of #coffee grounds to #landfill each year?
Add your coffee grounds to a composting bin or partner with a coffee ground #recycling service, such as @EnvarComposting or @firstmile.

Are you aware of our subsidised recycling scheme with @firstmile? It's free allocation of recycling bags, cardboard, tape and collection can lead to savings of up to £1,000/year. Not too shabby eh. Find out more: buff.ly/3zY47HT
