At Avis, we understand the importance of looking after the planet – that’s why a decade ago we were the first car rental company to put in place measures for reducing our carbon footprint.

Every business needs to take action to measure and reduce their carbon footprint. For more than a decade, we have actively reduced our emissions and worked with partners to minimise our impact on the environment.

We are also developing ways to help our customers make their journeys more eco-friendly. When it comes to the environment, as in every area of our business, We Try Harder.

Staff

Staff

We have carried out a number of audits to ensure our offices are as energy efficient as possible. We encourage everyone to recycle as much as possible and our lights have motion detectors so they only go on when someone is in a room.

We also provide our staff with our environmental driving code so they can help to reduce their impact on the environment whilst in the car. Plus on World Environment day we celebrate our eco initiatives with some fun activities which also help to raise money for charity.

When you book with Avis, we’ll offer you the chance to choose a more environmentally friendly ‘green’car – these vehicles are less harmful to the environment and some even come with the latest eco-friendly technology installed.

We also offer you the chance to offset your carbon footprint - if you donate just £1 we will put it towards planting enough trees to soak up the carbon dioxide produced by your rental .
