South Access Household Waste and Recycling Centre

About the scheme

This Community RePaint drop-off point is located at North London Waste Authority’s South Access Road Household Reuse and Recycling Centre.

If you are a resident living within the London boroughs of Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Hackney, Haringey, Islington or Waltham Forest, and you have leftover paint from your home that you’d like to pass on for reuse, visit South Access Road Household Reuse and Recycling Centre to drop off your leftover paint.

Paint dropped off at this site is then collected by a nearby Community RePaint scheme, and made available to individuals and groups in need of affordable paint.

If you are arriving by van, pick-up or in a car with a trailer (over four feet long), you must book an appointment to visit this recycling centre at least 24 hours in advance, by clicking here. When you arrive on site you need to bring: identification and proof you live in the borough.

As this drop-off point is run by the local authority, the site is unable to accept paint donations from businesses. If you are a trader, retailer, manufacturer or other business with leftover paint, click here to find out how you can donate your leftover paint for reuse through the Community RePaint network.

Please note, if you live outside of the North London Waste Authority area, you will not be eligible to access the site. If there is no drop-off point in your local authority area you will need to contact your local authority for guidance on what to do with your leftover paint. You can also adapt this template letter to encourage your local authority to consider collecting leftover paint for reuse at their sites.
