We sort recyclable and non-recyclable waste in a timely and consistent manner to ensure businesses and residential areas are more sustainable — further contributing to our main goals  to create a greener future.

Waste Disposal

Within Enfield, Bywaters can provide waste management solutions for many circumstances. We can process: dry mixed recycling, glass, cardboard, coffee cups, food and muchmore. Our team is highly experienced and skilled in using various types of machinery, operating in a safe and secure manner to ensure all necessary precautions are taken to, sustainably and safely, manage your commercial waste.

Our Lea Riverside site, in Bow, is home to the largest materials recovery facility (MRF) in London. Waste from Enfield is transported to our solar powered site to be processed. The machinery then separates the materials into their allocated streams to be processed further, and eventually sent off for recycling.

We have another facility, located at Gateway Road, which specialises in the management of construction and demolition waste. This includes the collecting and processing of materials such as brick and metal. These are then sent for recycling and energy recovery. We also offer a tipping service for loads of up to 500kg.

Through communication with businesses, we arrange a convenient time for your waste to be collected by our sustainable fleet, which consists of our fully electric or ULEZ compliant Euro 6 vehicles.

Enfield: A Short Guide

The London Borough of Enfield sits within  North London. A few of its local towns and neighbouring areas include Barnet and Cheshunt. Edmonton, Tottenham, Chingford and Wood Green.

The history of Enfield

The borough’s history can be traced back to Roman times, with remaining Roman settlements close to Ermine Street, located in Bush Hill Park. In the 11th century, Enfield Town became an administrative and religious centre within the city. By the 14th century, the area had become an important business location, with an increasing number of companies registered. Edward I granted the first market licence for the area, giving Enfield rights to host two fairs annually. In the 15th century, production and development of the London Borough of Enfield began, which is when the historic All Saints Church, in Edmonton, was built. 

By the early 17th Century, Enfield had become the lead borough for delivering fresh water to the city’s expanding population. An impressive 40-mile-long canal was constructed between Hertfordshire through Enfield and into London. The borough houses some important buildings such as; The Royal Small Arms Factory, the Edmonton Gas Works and several waterworks. Which were all constructed  during the 18th and 19th century. 

A booming borough

Enfield boasts a fairly diverse community as according to studies.38% of the boroughs population are of Black, Asian and other ethinic minorities. It is home to over 338,000 residents.

The borough has a decent number of registered businesses; the figure sits at 14,285. The top industries within the area include management consultancy, computer consultancy, and other business support services, as well as construction and domestic buildings, and accounting and auditing companies. These businesses can generate large amounts of waste which Bywaters collect and process.

The high density of businesses and tourist sites generates a substantial amount of commercial waste, which Bywaters will be busy managing and collecting. This can be challenging at times but we have experience working effectively and sustainably to deal with waste. We provide an efficient and versatile service to clients of all magnitudes, and can offer you the best solutions for your waste management.

Enfield has some notable tourist hotspots that attract thousands of visitors annually. This includes the famous Forty Hall Estate —  a beautiful manor house surrounded by a serene landscape  — the Bruce Castle Museum, the Royal Gunpowder mills, the Epping Forest District Museum, Queen Elizabeth’s hunting lodge, Epping Forest and Alexandra Palace. There are also many stores and shopping parades which include luxury and retail units.
