Dear Owners and Residents,
Recently, the bin and recycling rooms have been getting in a very poor state with multiple items being dumped by Residents who appear to be expecting someone else to arrange for their disposal.
The bins are there for everyday household items to be disposed of in the general bins or recycled in one of the appropriate recycling bins. All other items such as beds, furniture, electricals, building rubble etc require specific collection from Hounslow Council under their Bulky Waste Collection Service.
A link to the council website can be found here:

The current price for a private resident is £40 for up to 5 items, with any additional items charged at £8 per item.
The current cost to Regatta Point is £70 for up to 5 items, with additional items charged at £14.
Going forward, if Residents dump items that require Regatta Point to arrange for disposal, and we can identify the culprit through the use of the CCTV, then we will be charging the Owner the higher, Regatta Point, costs through the Service Charge billing. Any fees from HML will also be added. We therefore advise that, in order to avoid these higher fees, you arrange for collection yourself.
If you have made an arrangement with the Council and need to leave items in the bin rooms for collection – please inform the Caretaker beforehand so that we are aware and mark the items clearly so that other Residents are aware and the collection service can clearly identify the items.
Thank you for your co-operation.
The Directors, Regatta Point Freehold Limited.
