Hello,

We recently moved to East Dulwich Grove and it seems as our Garden Waste is not being collected. We paid the annual fee for the garden waste collections, the new label still has not arrived, however they tend to be always late. In our previous place in ED waste was collected every week.


Is there anyone here who lives on EDG and can comment on the garden waste collections? Council says it is meant to be picked up every Tuesday, but it seems as it is not. I would ask neighbours, but cannot see any brown bins at the front of their properties.


Thanks :)

I paid the ?40.00 back in early March. Still no Sticker


Have been through to Southwark Council 4 times.

They confirmed by email they had received my payment

and I should get my Bin Sticker by 21st April.


That is tomorrow.


Don't know if it's down to Royal Mail or Southwark Council

We are on a Tues collection and our brown bin is collected weekly. Do you leave it at the entrance to the property so it can be easily collected. On EDG you might need to put it on the pavement?


Re the bin stickers - ours arrived last week, but obviously the post situation isn't great at the moment, i'd expect that there would be some leeway on the existing permits to allow for this. Foxy - assuming your bin was collected this week?

I would suggest two avenues:

1. Complain to your Councillor who will forward an email to officers and chase as necessary

2. Make a formal complaint to the council -https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-and-democracy/complaints-comments-and-compliments/making-a-complaint

I only use my Brown Garden Waste bin a few times a year,


My Garden is Postage Stamp sized but does need some maintenance from time to time.

It isn?t a council election this May, just mayor and assembly.

You will slowly realise that although EDG is a lovely mixed community of wonderful people, who go out of their way to be neighbourly, the local council doesn?t really care about this rd, so pavements, road surface, noise, pollution and cleanliness isn?t a priority. You should have moved onto Melbourne or Townley, Court, Derwent or Calton....all rds that are looked after by the Council. One end is Village Ward the other Goose Green..so both sets of Councillors point the blame to the other set (privately of course). I love this road and the people, I have the best neighbours. Join the EDG group...together we are stronger.

London mayor is Labour, our Council is Labour. Still no brown bin sticker today, Royal Mail just delivered the daily post.

We haven't received our sticker just yet, but I am glad that my garden waste was finally collected :)


It seems as they collect it in the afternoons on East Dulwich Grove, where all other waste very early mornings.

We must have pulled the bin back too early over the last weeks.

Have the threads on this forum about the Royal Mail delivery issues locally completely passed you by?


If all your mail is being delivered daily and none of it has been delayed, you must be about the only lucky person in this area :)

Yes, fortuntunatly we had no trouble with our post, lovely local postman.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
