Restricted access to Jenkins Lane

break

Newham Council and the East London Waste Authority restricts the amount of certain types of waste that residents can take to the Jenkins Lane RRC.

Residents are permitted to bring waste that is associated with household renovation or large amounts of DIY to the site for one free day of tipping.

After this, residents will only be permitted one further day of tipping of this; restricted waste', and must first seek permission from the council to do so.

Staff at Jenkins Lane RRC will record the details including the registration number of the vans, and the address of the driver carrying restricted waste.

Newham Council will then investigate the details provided and decide whether residents will be permitted to take further loads of restricted household waste to Jenkins Lane.

If permission is granted, residents will be given a letter of authority from the Council that will cite the conditions for tipping their restricted household waste and this will be subject to time constraints. The council will not issue blanket or unconditional tipping approval.

Those who live in the boroughs of Redbridge, Havering or Barking & Dagenham will be asked to contact their borough council to tip restricted waste at Jenkins Lane.

The initiative has been launched to clamp down on people who are illegally tipping their builders or business waste at Jenkins Lane RRC.

All residents visiting Jenkins Lane RRC are required to show a valid driving licence or Council Tax statement as proof of residence in Newham.
