What you need to know about Hackney

Hackney Central is considered the main part of the larger Hackney district, which occupies the better part of the modern-day London Borough of Hackney. The locality is mainly centered around Mare Street and the extensive collection of shopping areas to its north. While much of Central Hackney’s housing stock was replaced by more modern residential developments after World War II, several blocks of the more desirable Georgian and Victorian terraced houses still remain. Town Hall Square is regarded as the district’s cultural centre, while the area surrounding its two railway stations is dominated by retail shops, restaurants, and other commercial establishments. To the south, Broadway Market is home to even more shops in addition to its street market. Hackney also benefits from a relative wealth of transport links, with Hackney Downs railway station providing frequent trips to central London, the Hackney Central station serving commuters headed either east or west, and numerous London Bus routes handling shorter trips to the surrounding areas.

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

Several local man & van businesses and large waste management companies provide properties in Hackney with a variety of waste disposal options beyond those offered by Hackney Council. Some, like bin collection and skip hire, mainly just mirror the usual kerbside collections for refuse and recycling but are offered with more flexible scheduling options, including same-day or after-hours service. Others, such as grab hire, are only used by those who require the removal of certain types of waste. Several companies even offer waste clearances for homes or offices in Hackney, which are favored by those seeking a waste disposal solution with a high landfill diversion rate.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in Hackney

Most properties in Hackney are a considerable distance from even the nearest reuse and recycling centre (RRC), due in part to the fact the borough does not have a local civic amenity site. As such, the local council recommends either making full use of their regular collections or taking smaller batches of recycling to one of the nearby recycling banks instead. Hackney residents who absolutely need to dispose of household refuse and recycling at a recycling centre, however, can make use of either Islington’s Hornsey Street facility or the Leyton RRC, which is located on Gateway Road, a short distance north-east of Hackney Marsh.

What rubbish collection services are available in Hackney?

Hackney Council provides collection services for household rubbish, general recycling, garden waste, and food waste for all residential properties in Hackney. These fortnightly collections are available at no cost to Hackney residents, but bulky waste collections for large items, such as household appliances and furniture, are a separate service and charged a minimum of £15 for up to five items. While the bulky waste collections are a somewhat more convenient alternative to trips to a civic amenity site, wait times are typically long, and the contractor’s teams are not guaranteed to be able to assist with the removal of the items from the property. As a result, it is often considered more convenient to make arrangements directly with a waste management company who can provide similar services.
