Environment

Our environmental programme encompasses all areas of the business and offers clients a range of environmentally friendly options in order to help them reduce their own Carbon Footprint.

Environmentally Friendly Vehicles

We continuously look for new vehicle options which are environmentally friendly and commercially viable. We do not charge a premium for green vehicle options and in many cases they are provided at a reduced cost.

We are a non-asset owning company and as such are able to introduce new environmentally friendly vehicles into our fleet the moment they become available.

We are able to provide our clients with analysis and reports based on the amount of carbon produced from their courier deliveries. We can then provide advice on how our clients can reduce their carbon footprint by selecting an alternative vehicle.

Reports available include:

• Carbon Calculator - This report shows the amount of CO2 emissions that are produced by a company using CitySprint’s courier services
• Carbon Optimiser - This report shows how by simply changing some of the vehicles used to undertake courier work, to more environmentally friendly ones, the client can reduce the amount of negative emissions and improve their carbon footprint.

Our Carbon Offset Programme gives clients the choice to have a retrospective surcharge applied to those jobs that do use a carbon producing vehicle, and in doing so create an Environmental Support Fund (ESF). Any monies generated in the ESF are then invested in one of the following offset programmes:

• Carbon Offset companies
• Sustainable Development Projects
• Energy Efficient Projects
• CitySprint Investment
• Client Preferred Programme
