The Mobile Recycling Centre will be parked up outside Sainsbury's Dog Kennel Hill between 10am and 1pm on Wed 2 March.


The Mobile Recycling Centre is a service, funded by the London Waste and Recycling Board (LWARB), to make it easier for residents to recycle materials that cannot be collected as part of a normal household recycling collection and accepts the following items, FREE OF CHARGE:


Textiles and shoes

Small electrical appliances

Wood and timber

Metal

Bulky cardboard

CDs/DVDs

Printer cartridges

Batteries

Lightbulbs of any kind


These items are then brought to Southwark's Integrated Waste Management Facility before being sent onto reprocessors for recycling.


The Mobile Recycling Centre also dispenses biodegradable garden waste sacks, clear recycling sacks and sells subsidised compost bins and soil conditioner.


The Mobile Recycling Centre DOES NOT accept household recycling or general waste.

I suspect that Veolia don't have the resources or inclination to recycle working goods as such. Anything put through their (and to be fair, ANY) recycling centre will be broken up for reusable metals/plastics.


As as been mentioned here before I believe, the British Heart Foundation will accept working electrical goods (and will collect them). Here's a link... https://www.bhf.org.uk/shop/donating-goods/what-to-donate

7th December, according to the 'new' version of the council's site.


The current version of the site seems to have lost the relevant page, or perhaps its because 'mobile recycling' means two different things, which makes searching for either a pain in the backside.


Happily for early adopters, the exhortation to remove plastic windows from envelopes seems to have been dropped from the new version of the site. But, reassuringly, Tetra-paks are still recyclable on both.

    • 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.   
    • 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
