What is a Door to Door Carbon Neutral Mailing?


Weve set up a Door to Door scheme which helps our business customers reduce the environmental impact of their unaddressed mailings. Businesses that join the scheme must use our Carbon Neutral logo, to show their customers that the mailing is carbon neutral.

How does it work?


The aim of this scheme is to minimise the environmental impact of our Door to Door service for the delivery of unaddressed items. Business customers must follow the specication for the production of their mailings to use the scheme and in return we promise to pay to offset any remaining carbon emissions produced by the mailing, to make it carbon neutral. For more details visit our website: www.royalmail.com/responsible
