Local collections across Hythe

A Cinque Port town on the Royal Military Canal with a large retired population and narrow historic streets.

Georgian and Victorian townhouses on the hill with bungalow estates at Palmarsh and Seabrook. Steep hill streets and a high proportion of older residents make in-property clearance, rather than kerbside collection, the standard requirement.

We work regularly around Seabrook, Palmarsh, Saltwood, Dymchurch, and reference points like Royal Military Canal, St Leonard's Church ossuary, Hythe Imperial help us find awkward addresses first time. Commercial work concentrates around Lympne Industrial Estate, Dymchurch Road units and the Hythe High Street retail areas.
