I belief that the improved discipline for all kerb-side waste and recycling collections brings an improvement. Better cleanliness helps reduce ASB and crime. It is a well established fact that the broken window effect occurs with messy streets. This effect can only be countered by improving cleanliness and maintenance.

I very much welcome this new policy from Tower Hamlets Council, which only applies from 2. December 2024 to

• High streets
• town centers
• main commercial areas

such areas do not have bin storage areas and waste and recycling gets collected kerb-side daily.

With the new

• Commercial workplace recycling 2025
• Separation of Waste regulations 2025
• Household Waste Regulations 2026
• Recycling rules 2026

Tower Hamlets Council collects waste and recycling twice daily at scheduled times.
