The Mobile Recycling Centre will be parked up outside Sainsbury's Dog Kennel Hill between 10am and 1pm on Wed 2 March.


The Mobile Recycling Centre is a service, funded by the London Waste and Recycling Board (LWARB), to make it easier for residents to recycle materials that cannot be collected as part of a normal household recycling collection and accepts the following items, FREE OF CHARGE:


Textiles and shoes

Small electrical appliances

Wood and timber

Metal

Bulky cardboard

CDs/DVDs

Printer cartridges

Batteries

Lightbulbs of any kind


These items are then brought to Southwark's Integrated Waste Management Facility before being sent onto reprocessors for recycling.


The Mobile Recycling Centre also dispenses biodegradable garden waste sacks, clear recycling sacks and sells subsidised compost bins and soil conditioner.


The Mobile Recycling Centre DOES NOT accept household recycling or general waste.

I suspect that Veolia don't have the resources or inclination to recycle working goods as such. Anything put through their (and to be fair, ANY) recycling centre will be broken up for reusable metals/plastics.


As as been mentioned here before I believe, the British Heart Foundation will accept working electrical goods (and will collect them). Here's a link... https://www.bhf.org.uk/shop/donating-goods/what-to-donate

7th December, according to the 'new' version of the council's site.


The current version of the site seems to have lost the relevant page, or perhaps its because 'mobile recycling' means two different things, which makes searching for either a pain in the backside.


Happily for early adopters, the exhortation to remove plastic windows from envelopes seems to have been dropped from the new version of the site. But, reassuringly, Tetra-paks are still recyclable on both.

    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
    • Wholeheartedly recommend Aria. He was polite, responsive and sorted our leak, from an old tap on an old plumbing system, with no bother and on same day. 
    • GP not willing to refer you on? Say, to King's or similar. Odd
