Overview

Lambeth Council directs residents to two relevant reuse and recycling facilities: its Lambeth reuse and recycling centre on Vale Street and the Smugglers Way Household Waste and Recycling Centre. Both are represented here. Smugglers Way is operated by Western Riverside Waste Authority rather than Lambeth Council, so check the individual listing and the relevant operator’s current guidance before travelling.

Choose Vale Street or Smugglers Way

Vale Street accepts recycling and reusable goods rather than general rubbish. Smugglers Way accepts a wider range, including rubbish, and is operated by Western Riverside Waste Authority. Check the site-specific rules before loading; the two facilities do not have identical services.

Smugglers Way bookings and identification

Car visits to Smugglers Way require a booking. Pedestrians and cyclists do not need to book there. Bring photo identification and proof of your Lambeth address; if your photo ID does not show the current address, bring a separate address document.

Check oil-disposal arrangements

Before transporting cooking oil or engine oil, check Lambeth’s current disposal guidance. Confirm which facility can accept the oil and follow that site’s visitor and accepted-material instructions.
