Rubbish and Recycling

Our communal general waste green bins
are collected every Tuesday and Friday,
the black recycling bins
are collected on Wednesday
Food waste bins
can be found opposite Grangemill and under Hambrook
Bulk items
must be left in designated spaces and reported to the caretakers, talk to them before you put anything out.The caretakers will let you know the best place, day and help if needed.
If you need help with taking out your regular rubbish please make arrangements with the caretakers
The old people's home is a liecenced house of multiple occupancy, pays council tax and uses communal estate bins

The TRA are working to:
- Bins are cleaned twice a year - we're ensuring this happens
- Increase the number of bins and capacity
- Improve bulk waste procedure and collection points
- Fly tipping prevention
- Reporting fly tipping; over 100 incidents have been logged in 2025, commercial fly tipping has been caught and reported
- Getting the parking bays repainted so bin lorry’s can get round junctions and no collections are missed
- Reduce use of bins from non estate residents
- Temporary signage is in place by the bin areas, the TRA are working with Camden housing to get signage in place by the bins
Things every resident can do:
Take pride in our estate
- Flat packing boxes, recycling and using correct bins
- Report fly tipping using Love Clean Streets app (takes 1 min)
- Keep bin lids closed, helps prevent animals making a mess
- Don’t add to already full bins
- Documenting and reporting when bins are over capacity
You can support by reporting things to the TRA email, WhatsApp, and councillors who at at the community centre every 3rd Saturday of the month. The more voices the better.
The goal is to raise the issue to increase capacity, get bin areas installed, and fly tipping deterrents
