What are the different ways to dispose of waste in Loughton?
Due to the lack of nearby civic amenity sites, waste disposal in Loughton relies heavily on its local authority’s alternate weekly collections (AWC) and more specialised rubbish and recycling removal services through independent waste management companies, particularly because the only licenced recycling centre in the area deals specifically with metal and vehicle recycling. Most domestic disposal needs can be addressed either by the regular collections or bin clearance services offered by private contractors, but commercial establishments and businesses that generate larger volumes of rubbish typically require skip (or at least skip bag) hiring, man & van, or even wait & load operations. Grab lorries are also available from several waste clearance businesses, but their use is mostly limited to building materials or unusually large amounts of garden waste.
