Especially as a furniture removal company, we are aware of our responsibility towards the environment. Removals cannot be avoided. Nevertheless, we want to make a contribution to climate protection, our vehicle fleet consists of Euro6 standard and partly also with hybrid and electric drive. Since 2012, the Tischendorf removal company has operated a professional environmental management system, because we don't just talk, we also do something. The eco-certification according to DIN EN ISO 14001:2015 merely provides the basic framework for Tischendorf to comply with many strict formalities. This means that we want to avoid harmful environmental impacts through intelligent organisation instead of compensating for them afterwards. Furthermore, the motto is to avoid waste instead of disposing of waste. The consistent use of recyclable materials has been standard at Tischendorf for many years.
