What you need to know about Homerton

Homerton is a locality within the London Borough of Hackney and considered to be one of the larger districts in the borough. It is located east of Hackney Central and occupies most of the borough’s south-east corner. Homerton is one of Hackney’s most densely-populated neighbourhoods and occupied by several blocks of more affordable post-War flats in addition to its other residential properties. It is often considered the cultural centre of Hackney due to having a large number of local artists, several music recording studios, and an arts centre in the area. The High Street, while not as busy as it once was, still has several parades of shops and is complemented by the shopping centres of Hackney Central. Homerton is served by its own railway station, which has trains heading east and westbound, while the nearby Hackney Downs and London Fields stations provide the area with essential access to Liverpool Street station and the rest of central London.

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

A wide variety of waste disposal options are available in Homerton, which include the fortnightly household refuse and recycling collections provided by Hackney Council. Bin collection and skip bag hire are two of the most common alternatives offered by private contractors and generally the most popular among Homerton’s households and businesses as they are not tied to the same strict schedule and are able to clear bins more frequently. Waste clearance, on the other hand, is only available in Homerton from select companies with a license to carry multiple waste types. As an end-to-end service that includes nearly all of the labor involved, it is typically considered the most convenient of the available waste disposal options.

Where are the nearest recycling centres in Homerton

The Leyton reuse and recycling centre (RRC), located on Gateway Road, is the nearest civic amenity site for households in Homerton. The facility is managed by the North London Waste Authority and has the same usage guidelines as most other recycling centres under the NLWA. Most common types of household refuse and recycling are accepted at the site, with the main exceptions being hard plastics (except in the case of reusable items), tyres, and hazardous waste. Rubble is also accepted, but soil will need to be taken to one of their other facilities, the nearest of which is the South Access Road RRC. Additionally, any reusable furniture or bicycles brought to the Leyton site will be refurbished before being sold at reuse stores.

What rubbish collection services are available in Homerton?

Fortnightly collections for general rubbish, domestic recycling, garden waste, and food waste are provided by Hackney Council to all households in Homerton. Bulky waste collections, which are used for the removal of larger items, like washing machines, refrigerators, sofas, and beds, are also offered by the council but cost a minimum of £15 for up to five pieces of bulky waste. Homerton residents who arrange for a bulky waste collection through the council, however, will typically need to carry the items out of their homes themselves and often experience extended wait times due to resource limitations.
