Preventing Unauthorised Access by Traders

To assist the Council with preventing unauthorised traders trying to deposit their waste at the site, Shanks East London have installed a barrier which is 1.72 metres (5 feet 8 inches). 

Residents with vehicles more than 1.72 metres in height will have to bring identification to show that their waste is not from a commercial source (e.g utility bill). 

You may be required to allow staff on site to inspect the waste you wish to deposit.

Trade Refuse can be taken to the Jenkins Lane site (also run by Shanks East London) on the junction with the A406 and the A13. Follow the slip road on to the eastbound carriageway of the A13 and you will see a sign for Jenkins Lane before you leave the slip road.  For details of charges please contact Shanks East London on 0800 389 9918.
