Flats in Whitechapel, Bethnal Green and Stepney
Many Tower Hamlets homes are flats, often with narrow stairwells, shared bin stores and lift bookings. Before you book, check with your building or managing agent what time you can bring items down and whether a booking is needed.
Send a photo of the items and the access route, for example “third floor, lift works, stairs only on one side”. It helps us bring the right number of people and vehicles.
Offices and buildings around Canary Wharf and the Isle of Dogs
Office clear-outs and building work in Canary Wharf, the Isle of Dogs and Limehouse often have set loading times, security passes and rules about where vans may stop. Tell us the building name and the time window when you call, and ask the building manager for the loading bay details in advance.
Before you book a collector
- Ask for the waste carrier registration number and check it on the official GOV.UK register.
- For commercial waste, ask for a receipt that names the business and shows what was taken.
- Tell the collector about hazardous items such as asbestos, paint or chemicals. These need special handling, so do not put them in a general collection.
