How to use the near-entry recycling facilities

All materials can be put into the same container. Please put only the correct items into the recycling bin, through the flap at the top of the bin.

You can take your recycling to the nearest bin at any time during the day, but please consider other residents by only using the bins between 8am and 9pm. All recycling bins will be emptied once a week.

To report full or vandalised bins please contact the Haringey Enterprise Call Centre:

What happens to the materials I put out for recycling?

The recyclables collected are taken to a Material Recovery Facility (MRF) in London which separates the materials using a combination of mechanical separation and hand sorting. Once separated these materials are then bulked and delivered to reprocessing companies.

For more information please see the mixed material collections section on the what happens to recycling page.
