Aesop
Their Challenge
AÄ“sop offers skin, hair and body products of the highest quality. Although their headquarters is located in Melbourne, but they have offices and stores worldwide. We've been working AÄ“sop since 2008.
AÄ“sop needed an easy-to-use and reliable recycling service to collect their stores' daily waste after closing. Retail stores typically have Mixed Recycling, Cardboard and General Waste that needs to be collected.
First Mile's Solution
We set up daily evening collections on a timely schedule so AÄ“sop can simply leave their waste kerbside after their stores close for the day.
This includes regular Cardboard and Food collections to maintain a high recycling rate and ad-hoc WEEE Recycling collections when necessary.
