We Have A New Office Space!

While it may seem like most companies have always had their office space, it’s been a long time in the making for us. We moved into our warehouse three years ago and we’ve been working on getting an office built ever since. The day has finally come and after lengthy delays we are very happy to say that we have moved in.

We moved in at the end of March and it was the perfect way to kick off our new fiscal year in a brand new space. 

Although it’s still challenging to gather all of our employees in one room due to Covid-19 restrictions, it’s been really great for our office staff (Raven, Andrea and Nadine) to be able to see everyone everyday.

With our home office formerly in a different location it was challenging at times. We used to feel a lot more disconnected from our employees but that is over now. It’s a new world at Ethical Waste Services Ltd. while we keep navigating through staying close at a safe distance. Now that we’ve moved in we are already feelling a big change in our company culture! We’re super excited for things to slowly get back to “Normal” whatever that may be, so that we can proceed with in-person meetings and company gatherings in our new space.
