Arrange waste collections for schools, places of worship and charities

All schools, places of worship and registered charities in Bexley get a discount on general rubbish collections (collection cost only) and can have recycling collected for free.

These organisations are classed as business premises under waste regulations, which means you are legally responsible for managing and paying for your own waste collection.

Bexley Council offers reliable, cost-effective waste collection services to support you in keeping your site clean, compliant, and environmentally responsible.

  • schools (nurseries, academies, primary, secondary schools and college/sixth forms)

We collect a range of waste types, including:

  • paper and cardboard
  • plastic bottles, cans, and glass
