What you need to know about High Beech

High Beech

High Beech is a village within the ward of Waltham Abbey, High Beech is in the Epping Forest district of Essex and is still the only settlement inside Epping Forest. Its location within Epping Forest has lent itself to the development of a variety of courses and tracks for different outdoor activities, including hiking, orienteering, horse-riding, and even mountain biking. One of the walking routes, the 24-km-long Epping Forest Centenary, traverses the length of the village and was established to celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the 1878 Epping Forest Act, which outlined the regulations governing the protection of the forest and the area around it. While High Beech might not have the usual selection of retail stores, the shops that are there see to it that basic needs are more than amply served. Unsurprisingly, transport links to and from High Beech are somewhat limited with two nearest train stations, Chingford and Loughton, both being over 3 km away. The London buses serving through the area, similarly, have stops relatively close by, but not anywhere in High Beech itself.

What are the different ways to dispose of waste in High Beech?

As a result of its location within Epping Forest, High Beech’s waste disposal options aren’t nearly as convenient as those of other neighbourhoods. There are several facilities across the reservoir that offer either metal recycling or builders waste disposal, but the nearest reuse and recycling centre (RRC) is some distance away, in Chingford. Nevertheless, High Beech’s residents do still have access to rubbish removal by way of collection services, including those provided by the local council. Additionally, many households and businesses make arrangements with licenced private contractors to keep their bins clear. Skip bags, for example, are available from most waste management companies as a domestic alternative to actual skips or RO-ROs. Man & vans are also used, but usually reserved for larger loads of rubbish or recycling or bulky waste, such as old, unwanted furniture.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in High Beech

For addresses in High Beech, the Kings Road RRC in Waltham Forest is the nearest council tip in the surrounding area. As making frequent trips there will not be practical for most, it is likely more advisable to simply make use of the recycling banks within High Beech itself or, where possible, just wait for the weekly collections. One advantage of using the civic amenity site, however, is the presence of the Second Time Around reuse shop within the facility, as it allows unwanted clothing, furniture, and other household items to be donated directly to the organization that redistributes them.

What rubbish collection services are available in High Beech?

While there aren’t any private contractors based within or in the immediate area around High Beech, most licenced waste management companies do offer their collection services in the area. Bin collection services skip bag hire, empty waste and recycling bins much in the same way that the local authority’s collections do, but are typically more flexible in terms of scheduling and frequency. Man & vans, on the other hand, despite also being available, may cost too much to be used as a regular service, and are best reserved for situations where larger-than-average volumes of rubbish or bulky items are involved. Home and office clearances, meanwhile, can offer a convenient middle ground between the previous two, as companies are able to offer pricing based on the amount of rubbish and recycling removed and can schedule the visits as an on-demand or even regular service.
