What you need to know about Highams Park

Highams Park

Highams Park is a relatively small locality within the London Borough of Waltham Forest that sits between the larger districts of Chingford and Walthamstow. Most of the area is residential with some commercial pockets and several small factories and industrial buildings occupying the space on Larkshall Road where the Halex factory once stood. The park itself, which is mostly located atop a small hill and has its own café, is a local favorite for running, dog-walking, and similar outdoor activities, while those who fancy sports head to the Jubilee Sports Ground. While Highams Park does not have its own tube station, the overground goes into Liverpool Street Station, which links up with several London underground lines.

What are the different ways to dispose of waste in Highams Park?

Properties in Highams Park are able to make use of most modern methods of waste disposal, including those provided by Waltham Forest Council. Alternative services are offered in the district by local man & van businesses and larger waste management companies and are often used when the council’s usual refuse and rubbish collections become insufficient to keep household or commercial bins clear. These alternatives can range from the more basic bin collection and skip (or skip bag) hire services all the way up to the full-service waste clearances that are offered by some companies for homes or offices. In addition, there are also a number of companies that can be contacted for the disposal of specific types of rubbish, like confidential, electronic, or hazardous waste.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in Highams Park

While the Kings Road RRC is technically the nearest civic amenity site for addresses in Highams Park, properties located towards the south end of the district may find the South Access Road facility more convenient to use, especially since they are able to also accept general rubbish in addition to most common forms of household recycling. The Second Time Around reuse shop, however, is located on the premises of the Kings Road site, which may make it more ideal for any Highams Park residents who require the removal of sofas, beds, or any other large pieces of furniture that can be reused. Both RRCs are open from 9 AM to 4 PM, Mondays through Fridays.

What rubbish collection services are available in Highams Park?

Waltham Forest Council offers weekly collections for general household refuse and recycling and fortnightly collections for food and garden waste for all households in Highams Park. In addition, separate waste removal services are also available for bulky waste, which includes certain kinds of household appliances (i.e. white goods) and large pieces of furniture (beds, sofas, etc.). While the bulky waste collections are free and can be arranged for as often as needed, wait times are generally very long, which may prove inconvenient for those who would prefer the immediate removal of the items from their property. In such cases, it is possible to either to request for the collection to be carried out sooner (for a fee) or simply make arrangements for a private contractor to make the pickup straight away.
