What you need to know about East Finchley

Situated 8.7 km north-west of Charing Cross and immediately north of Hampstead Heath, East Finchley covers an area across the Boroughs of Barnet and Haringey in north London. Despite much of the district having been rebuilt almost entirely from the ground up after World War II, East Finchley retained the better part of its original identity as a neighbourhood bound by strong community ties. Housing in the district is a diverse collection of different styles centered around three eleven-storey tower blocks that are clearly visible from the surrounding areas. Its High Street, considered by many to be the “greenest” in London, is also home to the highly-regarded single-screen Phoenix Cinema, in addition to the usual parades of shops. East Finchley is served by ample transport links, with its underground station receiving the bulk of its commuter traffic while being complemented by multiple Transport for London bus routes and other nearby tube stations.

What are the different ways to dispose of waste in East Finchley?

Public services, such as regularly scheduled collections and recycling centres, remain the most widely used means of keeping bins clear, but there are also many in the area who make arrangements with licenced private contractors for the alternatives they offer. Bin collection, skip (or skip bag) hire, and man & van services are popular options for disposing of varying volumes of domestic waste in East Finchley, while large scale RO-ROs, (roll on roll off) skips are typically only used for trade waste.
