Town centre and mixed-use premises
Ilford town centre contains shops, restaurants, offices, clinics, salons and managed buildings where smaller hazardous waste streams can arise alongside general commercial waste. Typical examples include aerosols, cleaning chemicals, fluorescent tubes, small WEEE items, batteries within equipment, contaminated wipes and occasional packaged food or liquid food waste. In dense premises, the main challenge is often keeping waste correctly segregated and safely stored before collection, particularly where businesses share corridors, yards or bin rooms.
