Welcome to the Islington Community Map.

You will currently find information on recycling and volunteer gardening, but more suggestions for environmentally-friendly living are on the way. Please let us know what you’d find useful (or if you spot anything that needs to be changed) - it’s a map for the community by the community!

Just select the category you are interested in and the locations will appear on the map. Clicking on the location marker will bring up more detailed information about that site.

Islington Council offers home recycling for most residents: glass, paper, cardboard, aluminium, hard plastics, food waste and garden waste - all collected from your home. Check out their helpful A-Z of recycling which tells you what you can and can’t recycle – everything from printer cartridges to polystyrene, toothbrushes to garden furniture.

Other items
Disposable plastic cups and sandwich cartons CAN go in your recycling bin. But cups that appear to be made of cardboard/paper are really mixed with plastic and cannot be recycled!
