About Burnham

Why Burnham businesses choose FJL.

Burnham is a large village in south Buckinghamshire on the western edge of Slough, between the A4 Bath Road and Burnham Beeches. It shares the SL1 postcode with Slough but sits in Buckinghamshire, with its own High Street, retail along the A4 and a mix of local trades and offices. We collect across Burnham, Lent Rise and Taplow every week.

Burnham High Street carries pubs, restaurants, cafes, a supermarket and independent shops, with the parades at Lent Rise and Hitcham serving the residential streets around them. Down on the A4, the Bishop Centre retail park at Taplow brings the cardboard and packaging that come with big retail units. Burnham Beeches draws walkers year round to the cafe and the pubs nearby. The Slough Trading Estate is just over the boundary to the east, and many Burnham businesses supply or service it, while Burnham station on the Elizabeth Line has brought new homes and offices.

What we use

Bins and containers for Burnham businesses.

From a single sack outside a coffee shop to a roll on roll off at a film backlot. We will recommend the smallest container that works, not the biggest one with the fattest margin.

FAQ

Common questions from Burnham businesses.

How quickly can you start commercial waste collections in Burnham?

Most new Burnham customers are on a route within the same week. Call before 11am and we can usually arrange a same-week start.

Do you collect from small premises and large sites in Burnham?

Yes. We serve everything in Burnham from a single-bin coffee shop to multi-site office estates, with bin sizes from 120 to 1100 litres and roll on roll off skips for larger needs.

What waste streams can FJL handle in Burnham?

General commercial waste, mixed dry recycling, food waste, glass, cardboard and confidential shredding. Plus skip hire for builders and large clear-outs. One supplier, one invoice, one number to call.

Are you fully licensed to collect waste in Buckinghamshire Council?

Yes. FJL Waste Services holds Waste Carrier Licence CBDU91900 and full insurance. You will receive Duty of Care documentation with every collection.

Do you tie customers into long contracts?

No multi-year tie-ins. We use a plain initial term that then continues on a rolling basis, with a clear notice period if you want to leave.

Are FJL cheaper than the national waste companies for Burnham businesses?

Most new customers in Burnham find us cheaper than what they had before. Send us your last invoice and we will quote you back in plain English. Fuel surcharges and any price changes are flagged in writing before they apply.

Where is the FJL depot in relation to Burnham?

Our depot is a short run from Burnham, which is why our drivers know the area well and our response times are quick. Most Burnham routes are run by drivers who have collected here for years.

Is Burnham covered by Slough or Buckinghamshire Council?

Burnham is in Buckinghamshire, even though it shares the SL1 postcode with Slough. That matters for skip permits on the road, which come from Buckinghamshire Council rather than Slough Borough Council. We check the boundary and apply to the right council when you book.

Do you collect from the Bishop Centre on the A4?

Yes. The Bishop Centre and the units along the Bath Road are on our Burnham round, with cardboard and mixed recycling collected separately from general waste so the retail packaging does not fill your general waste bin.
