LACMA Earth Social Responsibility Programme for International Removal Companies

LACMA (the Latin America and Caribbean Movers Association) launched LACMA Earth a few years ago in order to encourage ‘clean travel’ among members. The aim is to neutralise carbon dioxide produced by air travel to the conference each year by representatives of international removal companies. Each conference in effect becomes a ‘clean travel convention’. The compensation received as a result of the carbon off-setting is used towards preserving rainforests in Costa Rica. This initiative is undertaken in collaboration with FONAFIFO (a forestry protection agency in Costa Rica).In addition, LACMA Earth also promotes green initiatives in international removal companies such as recycling practices, paper consumption reduction and waste management. The organisation also aims to work with local, national and international environmental associations whenever possible in order to help preserve the planet.

Last year, 462 tonnes of carbon monoxide were generated as a result of the convention. This led to an investment of USD 2,500.00 in the Costa Rican rainforest. John Mason International contributed to the ‘clean travel’ programme last year and received a certificate to recognise the contribution.

The money collected will be used by FONAFIFO to preserve and manage a 10 acre plot in the rainforest for the next 5 years. In 2008, 10 acres were sponsored from investment obtained after the previous conference so in total, LACMA Earth currently protects 20 acres of rainforest in Costa Rica. This number will increase every year after the annual convention.al Programme

Some of our Customer Reviews

The packers were careful, quick and courteous. I highly recommend this company and would definitely use them again! Efficient, polite, punctual: could not ask for more.

Hertfordshire, UK to Virginia, USA - March 2023

From start with Michelle to finish with Gill the level of service was excellent. John Mason and its international partners handled my move from Devon to Australia seemingly effortlessly. I couldn't ask for better.

Devon, UK to Perth, Australia –April 2023

Absolutely one of the best movers I have worked with. Pleasant helpful admin staff and the delivery drivers were absolute angels sorting and moving the boxes where I asked them to. Arrived exactly when they said it would.
