We’re looking forward to building on the high-quality service that Reef Environmental provides its customers. This announcement comes at an exciting time for the business, as we commit to net zero by 2030 and start to electrify our entire fleet, with the purchase of three electric dustcarts costing over £1m.’Richard Taylor, Director of Reef Environmental Solutions commented: ‘It is great to now be part of Recorra, who share our key values of service excellence and reliability, but with the added benefit of bringing a wide range of new recycling services to our customers and the South East.‘
