Are there separate facilities for food waste?

Food waste should be put into the designated food waste collection where it is provided at your development. We will explain the containers & collection arrangements in your resident guide.

For our English developments

Since March 2026, England’s Simpler Recycling framework requires separate food waste collection for households, including flats, although some local authorities have transitional arrangements. The exact communal bin or caddy system may vary by building.

For Docklands Living in Dublin

Follow the building’s Irish waste segregation arrangements. Domestic food waste is normally placed in the appropriate organic or brown-bin collection, where supplied.

What you can do

• Separate food scraps from dry recycling.
• Use only approved bags or caddy liners where specified.
• Keep containers closed & clean to reduce odours.
• Do not mix packaging or other unsuitable materials into the food waste stream.
• Tell the team if the designated food waste container is missing or full.
