Acorn Rentals ditches the paper

The team at Acorn Rentals have been hard at work behind the scenes as part of our push to reduce our environmental impact by cutting down the consumption of paper, printer toner etc. We've invested significant time and effort in upgrading our technology systems and operational processes, with the focus on removing the need for paper based files. After months of hard work we're now running a paperless office, meaning our consumption of consumables and impact on the environment is substantially less.
