“We chose to work with Fresh Start Waste as they genuinely care about the environment, and it’s important to us and the young people we work with to operate in a sustainable way. The service has been excellent, the drivers are really friendly and what’s more, we know that all our waste is avoiding landfill, and instead powering local homes.”

How Does Fresh Start Help?

Fresh Start Waste work with thousands of businesses across the region, many of whom have furniture items which are being replaced but are in excellent condition, fit for reuse.
