Looking for recommendations &/or quotes: bin cleansing service


Lee Scoresby

Recommended Posts

Our residents' association previously contracted a wheelie-bin cleansing service. This arrangement ended several years ago but we are now looking for a suitable operator to undertake this work again.


The person who oversaw the previous contract does not recall if service was two-weekly or monthly. Nor has she retained details of the contractor: if you think it might have been you, and you are interested in re-applying, please contact me via a private message.


We will likewise be grateful to received GENUINE PERSONAL recommendations from other service users (residents' associations, for example, or individuals), and to learn the present levels of charging for this work.


We also invite direct approaches from companies, so long as these are supported by GENUINE references.


The successful company will need to offer a quote for both two-weekly and monthly servicing, either now or later if more details are needed. The work requires use of the appropriate specialist cleansing equipment, including steam and/or hot water. It also means being aware of Southwark's local bin emptying timetable.


The contract involves wheelie bins, situated at the street end of our shared driveway, off a side road. Access is very good. There are about 6 or 7 (green) refuse bins, about 4 or 5 (brown) organic waste bins, and about 5 (blue) recycling bins - which are somewhat less prone to fouling.


Contractors, please send me a personal message if you are interested. Other service users, please either just post or you could also send me a PM if you preferred.

    • They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.
    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
    • Hello, I lost a babies blanket between Tessa Jowell and the Picture House on Lordship Lane 😞It is teal colour with the name Cillian embroidered on it.  If anyone sees/finds it please let me know.  Thank you!
