Waste oil collection in Waltham Abbey: what to know
Waltham Abbey is a market town beside the River Lea and M25 junction 26, with a compact centre around Sun Street and the abbey church, post-war estates such as Ninefields and Roundhills, and industrial units on Brooker Road. The town's own tip on Brooker Road takes cars only, closes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and does not accept DIY waste or rubble.
Sun Street, a pedestrianised shopping street, and Market Square, with its Tuesday and Saturday market, form the centre of Waltham Abbey, close to the Abbey Church. Highbridge Retail Park, at the junction of Highbridge Street and Meridian Way, holds larger stores. Industrial and distribution premises are concentrated on the Brooker Road estate off Cartersfield Road, at Meridian Business Park on Fleming Road and at the Waltham Point distribution depot. Businesses here produce packaging, pallets and trade waste, while town-centre premises have to be serviced without driving along Sun Street.
We collect from Brooker Road and Sewardstone Road and everywhere else in EN9. As Waltham Abbey is about 40 minutes from our Wickford yard, oil collections go onto a planned run, normally within the week.
