Fiveways Municipal Vehicle Hire has kicked off its journey to net zero, teaming up with carbon experts Auditel to help drive this goal.

At Fiveways Municipal Vehicle Hire Ltd, they envision leading the way in creating a more sustainable, low-carbon future for the municipal vehicle hire industry. They are committed to achieving net zero emissions by reducing their environmental footprint across every aspect of their operations, from investing in electric and alternative-fuel vehicles to improving fleet efficiency and adopting renewable energy sources.

By collaborating with local authorities, suppliers, and technology partners, they aim to deliver cleaner, smarter transport solutions that support the UK’s broader net zero targets while continuing to provide reliable, high-performance vehicles for their customers.

Partnering with Auditel is a crucial step in achieving their net zero goal. Auditel’s expertise in carbon measurement, reduction strategies, and sustainability consulting will enable Fiveways to accurately assess their emissions and identify meaningful opportunities for improvement.

Emma Cheesman, Head of Development, comments, “Auditel provides the independent insight, data integrity, and strategic guidance we need to build a credible, science-based pathway to net zero. By working with them, we ensure our actions are transparent, measurable, and aligned with best industry practices, helping us to reduce our environmental impact while continuing to deliver exceptional service to our customers.”

At Fiveways Municipal Vehicle Hire, they believe that sustainability is everyone’s responsibility. Measuring and reducing their carbon footprint is essential not only for protecting the environment but also for safeguarding the long-term resilience of their business.

For their employees, it reflects their shared commitment to working for a company that values people and the planet. For their customers and suppliers, it demonstrates accountability, innovation, and a proactive approach to meeting shared environmental goals.

Sustainability and carbon reduction are rising priorities across the municipal vehicle hire and waste management sector, yet many organisations have yet to take meaningful steps.

Fiveways recognise the urgency, not only to meet growing expectations in tender processes, where carbon reduction plans and published data are increasingly scrutinised, but also to strengthen their reputation. By taking proactive measures, they aim to position themselves as a responsible business and gain a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving market.

Fiveways Municipal Vehicle Hire is committed to achieving net zero and is actively taking steps toward that goal. However, they remain grounded in the realities of today’s market. They recognise that, due to geographic and economic constraints, some customers may not yet be able to adopt more sustainable vehicle options.

However, Fiveways Municipal Vehicle Hire remains determined to reach net zero by reducing its environmental footprint across every part of the business.

“By understanding our impact and taking action to reduce it, we strengthen trust across our partnerships, enhance efficiency, and help build a cleaner, more sustainable future for the communities we serve.”
