What you need to know about Highgate

Highgate

Located in the north-east corner of Hampstead Heath, the suburb of Highgate occupies an area whose boundaries fall across the London Boroughs of Haringey, Camden, and Islington. It is widely considered one of the most expensive districts in which to take up residence in London, and this is reflected by the upmarket restaurants, pubs, and shops located in Highgate Village, at the centre of the district. Additionally, the village sits atop North Hill, affording both locals and visitors fantastic views of London. Highgate has its own London Underground station, and both the Archway and East Finchley tube stations are conveniently nearby as well. Overground stations are further away from the town centre, with Upper Holloway and Gospel Oak being the closest to most residents in the area.

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

Waste disposal options in Highgate are slightly more diverse than those of other localities in the north London region, due in part to the fact that the area it occupies comprises an intersection of three separate boroughs. In addition to the regularly scheduled refuse and recycling collections, households in the area can also choose to take their waste directly to any of the three nearby reuse and recycling centres (RRCs). Moreover, its status as one of the pricier neighbourhoods in the region has led to nearly all major waste management companies making their services available in the district.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in Highgate

Of the three nearby RRCs, the civic amenity site on Regis Road will, in most cases, be the nearest for addresses within the boundaries of Highgate. While Camden’s recycling centre does accept most types of household waste, however, certain materials, including gas bottles, tyres, and asbestos, will need to be taken to Islington’s RRC on Hornsey Street instead. Beyond that limitation, all three council tips in the vicinity (the third being Haringey’s household waste recycling centre on Western Road), share similar facilities and most domestic refuse and recycling can be taken to any of them as long as an appointment is booked beforehand. Additionally, the borough councils have provided a number of standalone recycling banks at various locations throughout the district and recommend their use where possible.

What rubbish collection services are available in Highgate?

Rubbish collection services, including those provided by the local authority (or authorities in this case), are the most widely used means of keeping bins clear in Highgate, while collection services offered by most private contractors, are usually more than adequate to dispose of average amounts of waste, for large amounts of waste skip hire is likely to be the best option for households and businesses. Private waste clearance solutions have the added advantage of including all manual labour involved in the collection price, and will sort and transfer all recyclable and reusable materials to the appropriate treatment facilities.
