At HSR, we understand that true sustainability goes beyond merely diverting waste—it's about fundamentally minimizing waste generation and transforming how businesses operate. Since our inception in 1988 as Happy Stan’s Recycling Services Ltd, we have evolved into a leading provider of comprehensive waste reduction solutions. With a vast network of global Zero Waste and resource management experts, HSR is at the forefront of advocating for progressive Zero Waste practices and policies in the business community.

Our mission is driven by our CLEER values—Commitment, Leadership, Excellence, Empowerment, and Responsibility. These principles guide us as we foster environmental protection through innovative waste reduction strategies.

The HSR family includes two specialized arms: HSR Services and HSR Zero Waste.

• HSR Services: This division excels in processing a broad spectrum of materials, from paper and plastic to furniture and electronics, at our Metro Vancouver–licensed Resource Recovery Facility.

We pride ourselves on not just meeting, but exceeding sustainability targets for thousands of companies of all sizes and industries.

• HSR Zero Waste: Since 2017, this consulting division has been at the helm of guiding clients on their journey towards Zero Waste. We provide practical waste management strategies, alongside Zero-Waste education and training.
