The recycling bin beside the old burial ground was repeatedly broken into and finally the door was vandalised beyond use (see attached). The bin was taken for repair in January. Members of the local community have suggested many alternative locations for it including on Calton Avenue (where the old stocks sign used to be) and with the other recycling bins at North Dulwich station. All other electrical recycling bins are in the north of the borough and can be found via this page: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/recycling/recycling-centres/waste-electrical-and-electronic-equipment-weee

I am taking some small electrical items to the Sydenham Hill recycling place (by bus and foot) If you would like me to take yours too, please PM me.


Please don't bin them!

The nimbies, I think, were pig sick of the morons who attacked and vandalised it. Having lots of electrical items strewn across a pavement near to where stacks of kids come and go is not a good idea. Shame it is gone but I can understand the reason behind its removal.

    • I needed someone to fit a new bathroom tap at short notice and Lucasz was on-time, quick and did a great job. No fuss and no mess - will definitely have more jobs for him.
    • I have a warning from EE that they're undertaking work locally to me, I'm assuming the south end of Underhill, over the next 5 days so there may be a temporary reduction in service. Otherwise it's fine. In case you suddenly hear adverse comments, problems may only be short lived. 
    • For those of us in Forest Hill this is great news.  As well as a better connection to Clapham, a quicker route to Catford is very welcome, as we often use Catford stations a lot for the Thameslink and to go down to Bromley and Beckenham. A stop in Brixton would be welcome.  Yes we have the P4.  But have you ever used the P4?
    • Sophie, I have to thank you for bringing me squarely into 2025.  I was aware of 4G/5G USB dongles for single computers, and of being able to use smartphones for tethering 4G/5G, but hadn't realised that the four mobile networks were now providing home hub/routers, effectively mimicking the cabled broadband suppliers.  I'd personally stick to calling the mobile networks 4G/5G rather than wifi, so as not to confuse them with the wifi that we use within home or from external wifi hotspots. 4G/5G is a whole diffferent, wide-area set of  networks, and uses its own distinct wavebands. So, when you're saying wi-fi, I assume you're actually referring to the wide-area networks, and that it's not a matter of just having poor connections within your home local area network, or a router which is deficient.   If any doubt, the best test will be with a computer connected directly to the router by cable; possibly  trying different locations as well. Which really leaves me with only one maybe useful thing to say.  :) The Which pages at https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/broadband/article/what-is-broadband/what-is-4g-broadband-aUWwk1O9J0cW look pretty useful and informative. They include local area quality of coverage maps for the four providers (including 5G user reports I think) , where they say (and I guess it too is pretty common knowledge): Our survey of the best and worst UK mobile networks found that the most common issues mobile customers have are constantly poor phone signal and continuous brief network dropouts – and in fact no network in our survey received a five star rating for network reliability.
