About Chesham
Why Chesham businesses choose FJL.
Chesham is a market town in the Chess valley in the north of the Chiltern district of Buckinghamshire, at the end of the Metropolitan Line. It has a stronger industrial base than most Chiltern towns, with trading estates on the edge of the town working alongside the pedestrianised High Street, the Broadway and the market. We collect across HP5 every week.
Chesham grew on what locals call the four Bs, boots, beer, brushes and wooden bowls, and the town still makes things. The Asheridge Road and Lycrome Road industrial estates and the units around Higham Road and Waterside hold engineering firms, builders merchants, printers, food producers and trade counters. The pedestrianised High Street, the Broadway and Market Square carry cafes, pubs, restaurants, charity shops and independents, with regular market days in the square. Lowndes Park, the schools and the care homes round out a steady, varied commercial base.

Local enough to care, big enough to deliver.
Chesham is on our regular Chilterns rounds, which run up the A413 and A416 through Amersham. Our drivers know the access for the Asheridge Road and Lycrome Road units, the delivery windows on the pedestrianised High Street, the market day restrictions and the narrow hill roads out of the valley.

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

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 Chesham businesses?
Most new customers in Chesham 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 Chesham?
Our depot is a short run from Chesham, which is why our drivers know the area well and our response times are quick. Most Chesham routes are run by drivers who have collected here for years.
Do you collect from the industrial estates in Chesham?
Yes. The Asheridge Road and Lycrome Road estates and the units around Waterside are part of our HP5 round. We supply wheelie bins up to 1100 litres, rear end loader collections and roll on roll off containers, with separate cardboard, wood and metal streams where volumes justify it.
How do collections work on the pedestrianised High Street?
We collect within the permitted delivery hours, early in the morning before the High Street fills, and plan around market days in Market Square. Bins are returned to your store or rear access rather than left on the street.
