Our Commitments

PCM is accountable to measurable environmental targets. Here is what we have committed to — and where we currently stand.

🎯

30% Diversion Rate by 2028

Currently at ~23%

We are committed to diverting at least 30% of all collected waste from landfill through recycling, composting, and material recovery — up from our 2023 baseline of 14%.

🌱

Carbon Neutral Operations by 2030

Fleet electrification underway

Through fleet electrification, route optimisation to cut fuel consumption, and landfill gas capture at disposal sites, PCM targets carbon neutral operations by 2030.

♻️

10,000 Tonnes Recyclables Annually by 2027

1,200 tonnes recovered in 2025

Our MRF and Picker Partner programme are scaling rapidly. By 2027 we aim to recover 10,000 tonnes of recyclables per year, creating livelihoods and reducing landfill pressure.
