Has anyone else experienced the rather foul stench coming from a van marked Oaks Farm, Halstead Kent?

I tried to google the farm online but it doesn't seems to be active .

The van is often parked locally and the smell is so stomach churning that I cannot open my windows .

Today the crates seems to be full up with food waste . I'm just struggling to understand why a farm van is transporting waste locally ?

It could be seriously dangerous if it is butchers rotting waste. If you seriously think it is, I suggest a call double quick to environmental health dept. or to the police and get him nicked and cleaned up (if it is as you appear to suspect). Just the side of the truck looks pretty filthy to me! Fine if it's mud, but if it stinks like you say, it could well be crawling with serious nastiness.
Removal of butcher's waste is now a licensed activity - and should be (as in, is expected to be,) heavily regulated. And,for butchers, it's not cheap. This waste can no longer be recycled into any food chain (animal or people), although I think it can be processed for other industrial or agricultural uses (i.e. bone-meal).

Removal of any waste as a business requires a license. Parking something that stinky is clearly a public nuisance. Might well also be a criminal offence - depends of course on whether there is a licence and on all the other facts, but it is clearly wrong as well as anti-social. If it's a local business that's doing it, I for one would like to know so I can avoid it or even drop in to complain.


The farm mentioned on the truck (Oak Tree Farm, Halstead, Kent) is listed on t'internet as an address for a waste company:


J B Waste Management & B K Skip J B Trading (UK) ltd Oak Tree Farm Yard, London Road, Polhill, Halstead TN14 7AB 01959 534027 Household, Commercial and Industrial Waste T Stn, director of JB Trading is Mr John Buswell (I guess that's where the JB comes from?).


No idea if that is who the truck belongs to though. Might be worth contacting them - it might just be an unhappy coincidence that the truck is full of waste and they are a waste company registered at the address on the truck - I suppose they might have sold the truck to someone else who hasn't painted out their details yet.

He has four active companies at Oak Tree Farm licensed for waste operations. I've removed the link to my search result as it was session-limited. Apologies. But if you want to search yourself, enter the Waste Operations category and postcode TN14 7AB in http://epr.environment-agency.gov.uk/ePRInternet/SearchRegisters.aspx.

    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • 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
