OUR PROGRAMS & IMPACT

Here is what we do, who it’s for, and what we have achieved so far.

How We Help

Cut The Waste data analytics and corporate waste stream research

Waste Audits

Our audits follow a simple, repeatable method. We collect one day’s waste from a sample of bins, sort it into about 10 categories and weigh each one. That tells an office its real contamination rate and what it throws away most. The written report ranks the changes by impact, so teams know what to tackle first. Audits are free. 

Eco-friendly circular technology and packaging alternatives

Circular Office Advocacy

We encourage offices to buy reusable, refillable and recycled products and to use repair and take-back programs. For example, we help teams set up electronics recycling drives, choose office equipment that can be repaired, and work with suppliers who take back their packaging.

Cut The Waste educational workshop for corporate office teams

Corporate Workshops

Our free workshops for employees and facility managers cover sorting waste correctly, setting up a breakroom without single-use items, and buying more sustainably. Each workshop comes with slides, signage templates and a checklist the team keeps.
