If you are not getting a satisfactory response then you are welcome to email the Tenants and Residents Association (TRA) and we will always do our best to assist you.

Woodvale Estate Garages

There are some garages on the estate that are available to rent. These are available to any Lambeth resident but Woodvale Estate residents pay a lower weekly rate for a garage on Woodvale Estate than those that live elsewhere. To apply and read the terms and conditions see the council website here.

Rubbish & Recycling

The council website also has information about bin collections and how to recycle. You can also report missed bin collections and fly tipping here.

General waste – General waste bins are on the right hand side of each set of bin stores which are located under the flats of each of the 4 side blocks.

Recycling – There are green recycling bins in the left hand side of each set of bin stores.  Glass bottles, cardboard and paper, clean plastic packaging can be recycled here. Please put recycling either in a clear plastic bag or not in a bag at all. No black bin bags in the recycling bins please. Large cardboard items should be broken up first and then put in the bins. For a detailed and downloadable list of what can and can’t be recycled please see here

Clothes and material waste – There are Traid charity bins on both sides of the estate for clothing.

Food waste – Currently we cannot recycle food waste on Woodvale Estate and so it should be put in the general bins. The TRA are looking into the possibility of food waste bins.

Garden waste – Currently we do not have official garden waste collections. Garden waste can be put in the general bins or taken to the local tip, https://www.lambeth.gov.uk/rubbish-and-recycling/reuse-and-recycling-centres

Bulky Waste – As estate residents we do not need to call to arrange bulky waste collections as they are included in our service charge. Please leave any bulky waste items (ie large electricals and furniture.) neatly by the bin areas. Please be aware that this does NOT include white goods (fridges etc). Please do not obstruct the doorways or access to the bins. Further infromation, including how to report any instances of flytipping through this link, https://www.lambeth.gov.uk/rubbish-recycling

Local waste and recycling centres – If you have access to a car then there’s alway the option to take waste items to the local tip. Info can be found here:
