Timed waste collections on busy streets

Timed waste collections: Information for landlords and businesses

Information for landlords 

If you are a landlord and the bins or bags at your property are usually collected from the street, it is your responsibility to tell your tenants to comply with the timed collections. 

Information for businesses 

If you run a business in a timed collection zone, you need to put out your waste during the times on the collection days above. If you use a private company to collect your waste, you must make sure that they know there are timed collections in operation in the area. 

We offer a commercial waste collection service for businesses in Newham. You can find out more on our commercial waste and recycling page.
