Confidential Waste Collection in Wandsworth

Wandsworth’s confidential business paper comes from three quite different places. At Nine Elms, the redevelopment around Battersea Power Station – reopened in 2022 with offices, shops and homes – has brought large new office floors to a riverside that used to be dominated by New Covent Garden Market. Around Clapham Junction, Britain’s busiest station for changing trains, and along the high streets of Putney, Balham and Wandsworth Town are the smaller firms: estate and letting agents, accountants, recruiters, nurseries and therapy practices, each with a few filing cabinets. In Tooting, the St George’s hospital and university site on Blackshaw Road has clinics, practices and medical offices in the streets around it. Wandsworth Council itself tells businesses that its commercial collections cost significantly more than local licensed carriers and lists private firms instead. We collect sealed sacks and archive boxes from anywhere in the borough, sign a waste transfer note with you on the spot and send a certificate of destruction afterwards.

Local know-how

Collecting in Wandsworth

Wandsworth is outside the Congestion Charge zone. The borough runs controlled parking zones – Battersea, Putney and Wandsworth Town among them – whose days and hours differ, and the council’s ‘Find parking zones’ search shows the rules for any street. Wandsworth Town centre is still wrapped in the one-way system that carries the A3 and the South Circular; TfL dropped its plan to remove it in 2025, so offices on the gyratory should tell us about any rear access. In the Battersea Power Station development, collections go through building management. Nine Elms straddles the Lambeth boundary, which makes no difference to booking.

Wandsworth Council and Business Waste

Wandsworth Council says its own commercial waste charges are significantly higher than those of private licensed carriers working locally, and its ‘Find a business waste collection service’ directory lets businesses search for private carriers by waste type, including confidential waste.

FAQ

Confidential Waste FAQ – Wandsworth

Can’t see your question? Send us a photo on WhatsApp or call – we reply in minutes.

The council directs businesses to private licensed carriers through its ‘Find a business waste collection service’ directory, which lists confidential waste as a waste type. Whoever you use, check their licence on the Environment Agency register – ours is CBDU527690 – and make sure you get a transfer note and a certificate of destruction.

Ask your building management which loading point and booking process contractors use, then book with us and we will send the details they need. We collect the sealed sacks or boxes from your floor; out-of-hours slots can be arranged if the building prefers.

The government’s right to rent guidance is to hold the copies for the length of the tenancy plus one more year. Once that year is up, seal them with the rest of the tenancy file and we will collect and destroy them.

Not if we know your access in advance. Tell us whether you have a rear entrance or a side street, and we plan the visit around the gyratory rather than stopping on it.

Yes – letters, referrals and record cards go in sealed sacks like any other confidential paper. Clinical waste is a separate stream we do not handle. Work through your retention schedule before filling the sacks, and store them securely until the collection.

Yes. Label your sealed sacks with your company name, let the front desk know the collection date, and the transfer note and certificate will be in your company’s name, not the building’s.
