Crown Relocations is NZ’s leading moving company.
We understand that our business is intrinsically linked to the well-being of the planet. To fulfill our purpose of making it simpler to live work and do business anywhere in the world, we acknowledge the consequences of our business activities and strive to minimise negative impacts while fostering beneficial outcomes for society. We want to be a good company and achieve our purpose responsibly.
In a world where the impacts of climate change touches the lives of almost everyone, sustainability is no longer a choice but a strategic priority for the long-term success and resilience of our business, our people, and the customers and communities which we serve. It’s just the right thing to do, we not only strive to provide the highest levels of service but do so with values that mirror our customers and colleagues, be the right choice.
Our Sustainability Framework focuses on three core pillars: Climate and Environment, People and Business and Partners and Community. These pillars represent the areas where we can meaningfully contribute to a sustainable future.
Our Climate and Environment pillar addresses the significant threat of climate change. The increasing frequency of severe weather events serves as a stark reminder of the consequences associated with continued reliance on fossil fuels and ongoing carbon emissions. Our industry has a critical role to play. We are committed to reducing our absolute emissions on a path to net zero by 2040 as well as eliminating waste across our value chain.
Crown’s commitment to People and Business underscores our value that our people are at the heart of our business by fostering a safe, inclusive, and socially responsible workplace, we not only enhance our business operations but also contribute to a healthier society.
The Partners and Community pillar reflects our commitment to building strong relationships with our partners and engaging with local communities. By collaborating and working together, we can have more impact and invest in the areas that mean something to our people and local communities.
By achieving the objectives outlined in these pillars, our aim goes beyond fulfilling obligations; we seek to inspire positive transformation within the transport industry both locally and globally.
