Recycling from home is easy, convenient and will help make a big difference to the environment. A recycling service is provided for each house in Redbridge (a separate service is available for residents in flats).

All households receive a weekly multi-material collection service.

How does the service work?

Its as easy as 1, 2, 3…

1. Please fill your box with the items listed below.

2. Put the box in front of and at the edge of your property boundary by 7.00am on the collection day (clearly visible from the road).

3. The box will be emptied and returned to you.

Please try to keep paper separate from other materials, either at one end of the box, in a re-usable or carrier bag, or in a separate recycling box. This is because paper is collected separately in the recycling vehicle.

How do I get a recycling box?

You can order a recycling box, or extra boxes, by completing the online form or by contacting the Customer Contact Centre.  

What items can I recycle?

All the items shown below can be recycled in your box...

What day is my recycling collected?

Your recycling is collected weekly. Since 1 October 2007, your recycling day is the same as your refuse collection day.

Please contact the Customer Contact Centre to find out the day of your collection, or use the recycling and refuse module located in the centre of the Redbridge i homepage.
