Recycling and rubbish | Westminster City Council

Introduction

If you live in Westminster, the city council is responsible for managing waste, recycling and rubbish disposal. This means that they provide a service which makes it easy for residents to recycle as much of their waste as possible.

A service provided by your council.

Westminster City Council provides a wide range of recycling and waste collection services, which you can find out more about below:

• Waste Collection – if your bin is full, you can request a new one from the council or arrange for it to be collected.
• Recycling Centre – visit here if you have large amounts of recyclable materials such as cardboard, scrap metal and plastic bottles that need disposing of safely. You can also bring along items like furniture or appliances for disposal too!
• Commercial Waste Disposal – if your business produces more than 50kgs per week, then this service may be able to help with your rubbish removal needs (call 020 7641 6180). If not then see below…

Commercial and domestic waste collection.

• The City Council is responsible for managing waste, recycling and rubbish disposal in the city.
• They provide a service to collect waste from households and businesses.
• They also provide a service to collect bulky items from households and businesses. If you have something big like an old sofa or bed that needs taking away, call them on 020 7641 6180.

Bulky waste collection.

If you’re looking to get rid of bulky waste, such as furniture and appliances, then your best bet is to hire a private company.

Recycling information.

Recycling is a great way to help the environment and save money. The best way to recycle in Westminster is at home by sorting your waste into separate bins.

You can recycle glass, paper, plastic and metal containers at the recycling centre on Edinburgh Road in Westminster.

Paper can be recycled through your local council or a number of charities such as Friends of the Earth. You can also use old cardboard boxes for storing things like books or toys in your garage or shed! It’s important to remember that some papers are not suitable for recycling – these include glossy magazines/newspapers etc, so make sure you check before putting them out with your other recycling materials!

Plastic bottles should be rinsed out thoroughly before being placed in one bin bag together with any lids attached (or else they will cause problems when sorting). Do this every time after use so there isn’t too much waste building up over time! If possible try buying products which come already packaged inside their own reusable containers instead – this reduces unnecessary packaging waste going into landfills around Britain each year which could otherwise have been reused for something else instead.”

Details of the recycling centre in Westminster.

The recycling centre is located at the back of Westminster City Hall, on Vincent Square. It’s open Monday to Friday from 8am to 6 pm (except for bank holidays) and Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm.
