Simpler Recycling in Northolt
Simpler Recycling in Northolt.
Northolt sits along the A40 in the London Borough of Ealing, with a commercial base that runs from the High Street parade and the Mandeville Road shops out to the light industrial units along the trunk road and the RAF Northolt periphery. The Simpler Recycling regulations apply to all of it. From 31 March 2025, any English business with 10 or more full-time staff needs separated food waste, dry recyclables and general waste collections, with paper and card kept apart from plastic, metal and glass unless your collector signs off a co-collection assessment. Micro-firms (under 10 FTE) have until 31 March 2027. FJL has been collecting in UB5 for years, our depot is up the A40 in Uxbridge, and our drivers know the trading unit access, the early-morning windows that suit the takeaway parades and the side streets we keep our lorries off during peak hours. 28 years experience, no auto price rises, and most new customers find us cheaper than what they had before.

FAQ
Common questions about simpler recycling in Northolt.
We run a takeaway on Northolt High Street. Does food waste collection really apply to us?
Yes. Food waste is one of the core streams and applies regardless of business size in principle, though micro-firms (under 10 FTE) have until 31 March 2027 to comply. Most UB5 takeaways are setting it up now anyway because the volumes are real and the residual costs come down once food is out of the bin.
We have a small light industrial unit off the A40 with 12 staff. What do we need?
You are above the 10 FTE threshold so the full three-stream split applies. For light industrial, the food waste volume is usually small (staff lunches) but the dry recyclables can be significant depending on what you do, especially card and metal. We will scope the right container mix on a site visit.
