Upnor garden waste: local access, housing and timings

A conservation-area riverside village of cobbled lanes below Upnor Castle, opposite Chatham Historic Dockyard.

Listed cottages on a cobbled high street with larger period houses at Upper Upnor. That housing mix shapes how we run garden waste here: Cobbled conservation lanes at Upnor cannot take skips or large vehicles, so items are barrowed out to a van parked at the top of the hill.

Our crews reach Upnor via Upnor Road, A289, A228 and work regularly across Lower Upnor, Upper Upnor. Garden waste removal is the collection of green waste and landscaping arisings — grass, hedge trimmings, branches, turf, soil, fencing and decking — from a domestic or commercial garden, including the labour to carry it out.

Upnor is one of our home-patch ME2 rounds — the vans run from Unit 4, Medway City Estate, Rochester ME2 4DP, so Upnor bookings taken before 11am are usually collected the same day. Household waste in this area is handled by Medway Council (unitary authority), with tip runs going to Cuxton and Capstone Road household waste recycling centres and council bulky collections offered as Medway Council operates a chargeable bulky waste service with banded pricing by item count.
