Hello


We're due to move house in the next couple of weeks and need to make multiple trips to the Southwark Recycling Centre to clear out our rubbish.


At the moment, we're allowed one car load with each permit but I have just discovered this morning that we're not allowed to book another permit for another 14 days after we've visited - meaning I can't book another permit following yesterdays visit for another 14 days. We've been clearing stuff since we went under offer 10 days before the lockdown but haven't been able to dispose of it during the lockdown while it's been closed. At this rate, unless the restrictions are lifted on the 4th July with the rest of the lockdown easing, we're going to run out of time to get what we need disposed of (there are several more car loads).


What are our other options? Are there small skips we can hire to bin it all into and have it taken away? Or is there some other option that we've not thought of.


Many thanks in advance!

The guys at the plant do a cracking job, and if you do go you'll appreciate that social distancing has meant you're just given a couple of bins (garden waste/rubble, household waste) each, rather than meandering about trying to find the right bin. So don't spend hours as I do sorting recycling - it all just household waste now. That upsets me, but hey ho.

I did ask them about it and they sort it out after. It is just while we have social distancing

yes.


There is no need (and never has been) to get within 1 metre of any one else at the recycling centre and restrictions on non essential business operating as usual ended weeks ago.


It should be open in full, as should many other council services.


We are still paying full whack for services that are not being provided.

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
