What you need to know about E6

E6

The E6 district in the Eastern postcode area mainly comprises East Ham and Beckton within the London Borough of Newham but also slightly extends into Upton Park to the west and Barking to the east. While the East Ham section of E6 is classed as an urban district, there is a distinct shift towards a more suburban character towards the south end, particularly after crossing into Beckton. Nevertheless, the two somewhat uneven halves share many of the same local amenities, including a large number of parks and open spaces and multiple retail parks and shopping parades. Most residential properties in E6 were originally built in the 1800s, while the Docklands area also provides additional housing and shopping options. E6 is served by a wealth of transport links, including numerous Transport for London bus routes, East Ham tube station at its centre, two railway stations near the north end of the High Street, and several DLR stations in and around Beckton.

What are the different ways to dispose of waste in E6?

While rubbish collections, which are provided by either the local authority or private contractors, are the most widely used means of waste disposal in E6, tipping is also a reasonably practical option for keeping household and commercial bins clear due to numerous licenced rubbish dumps and recycling centres in the Barking Riverside area. While roughly half of the facilities do deal with construction waste exclusively, a fair number of them, particularly along River Road, are able to accept general household and commercial refuse and recycling. There are also a handful of independent recycling centres in the same area, along with separate facilities for metals and organic waste.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in E6

The Jenkins Lane reuse and recycling centre (RRC) is conveniently located along E6’s eastern border, making it the nearest civic amenity site for addresses in the district. The facility is open from 7:30 AM to 5:45 PM, Mondays through Sundays, including bank holidays, and may be used for the disposal of household refuse and recycling by E6 residents free of charge. Commercial waste may also be brought to Jenkins Lane for disposal, but charges will apply. Additionally, of the East London Waste Authority’s (EWLA) four RRCs, only the Jenkins Lane facility is able to accommodate larger vans and twin axle trailers carrying household waste.

What rubbish collection services are available in E6?

Newham Council offers general refuse and recycling collections for both households and commercial establishments in E6, though they count as a paid-for service in the case of the latter. Additionally, special collections are also available for households in E6 that require help with putting their bins out, as well as those who have large items, like sofas and other unwanted furniture, or hazardous waste that need to be removed from their property. While, in most cases, the collections are available either for free or at minimal cost, wait times are often excessively long, which has resulted in many households and businesses in E6 instead making use of the actual paid-for alternatives offered by waste management companies, who are able to guarantee same day service and work outside of normal office hours. Moreover, in the case of waste clearance services, which are available in E6 for either homes or commercial establishments, the larger companies are able to more strictly adhere to sustainable guidelines and practice, which makes them a considerably better option for those who are concerned about the impact of their household or commercial waste on local landfills.
