What you need to know about Haggerston

Haggerston

Haggerston is one of the districts within the London Borough of Hackney and sits adjacent to both Shoreditch and Hoxton along the borough’s southern border. Partly due to that proximity, property options in the area have also seen a good amount of modern-day improvement, leading many to consider the district a more affordable version of either of its two western neighbours. The retail needs of those living and working in the area are well-served as well, due to the wide range of commercial establishments lining both Kingsland Road to the west and Hackney Road to the south, while several moderately-sized open spaces, including Haggerston Park and Shoreditch Park, provide the opportunity for sports and other forms of outdoor recreation. There are also several art galleries and museums in the area, but the majority of the district remains given over to its wide housing blocks and growing number of gated communities. Haggerston is bounded by a good number of railway stations to the west and east, allowing for convenient overground access, however the Bethnal Green station to the south is still the closest station with London Underground service.

What are the different ways to dispose of waste in Haggerston?

Haggerston households and businesses have access to a variety of waste disposal options beyond those provided by the local authority thanks to the waste management companies offering their services in the area. These alternatives can range from more common services, like bin collection and skip hire, all the way up to more specialised rubbish removal solutions for specific types of waste, such as confidential, electronic, or hazardous waste. Property waste clearances, which are only available from select private contractors, have also come to be favoured by many households and offices in Haggerston, as they allow for the wholesale removal of various types of junk and recycling without all the usual limitations and additional benefits.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in Haggerston

While Hackney does not have any civic amenity sites within the borough, households in Haggerston may dispose of their general refuse and recycling at Islington’s Hornsey Street reuse and recycling centre (RRC), which is the nearest such facility among those they can use. The site is managed by the North London Waste Authority (NLWA) and open seven days a week, from 9 AM to 4 PM. Most types of household rubbish is accepted at the Hornsey Street RRC, save for tyres, hard plastics (unless in the form of reusable items), and hazardous waste. Cement-bonded asbestos, however, is accepted, but Haggerston residents are required to call ahead before bringing any amount of it in for disposal as their containers have limited capacities.

What rubbish collection services are available in Haggerston?

Residential properties in Haggerston are all eligible for Hackney Council’s free refuse and recycling collections. Some properties are able to benefit from daily time-banded collections, but most households will have their recycling and food waste collected once a week and their general rubbish bins emptied every two weeks. Garden waste is also collected fortnightly free of charge in Haggerston, but assisted collections and clinical waste removal will need to be requested from the borough council. Bulky waste removal services for large household items, like major appliances or furniture, are also available in the district but cost £15 for a collection of up to five items. In addition, residents are also responsible for ensuring that their bulky waste is ready for collection at the edge of their property on the specified day.
