All London boroughs provide facilities at either civic amenity sites or
waste and recycling centres. These services vary so check:


* the categories of items and substances taken.


* if there is a fixed annual weight limit per household for free
disposal.


* If residents have to apply for permits or produce proof that they
are residents.


Always telephone first to make sure that they can take the material
or items you wish to dispose of. When no telephone number is
listed, ring the local authority at the Town Hall or Civic Centre and
ask for waste disposal.
