5,538 households sit inside the NW10 neighbourhood covering Harlesden. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 78% of those homes are flats.
With 41% private renting against 24% owner-occupied, most NW10 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the reality on the streets around The Jubilee Clock behind the plaster in NW10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Harlesden stock goes, and with 41% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Jubilee Clock, Caribbean food shops and a working high street. That character decides the practical detail of rubbish removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Harlesden is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Very busy high street with short loading bays; side streets are narrow and permit-only. Nearest station is Harlesden (Bakerloo, Overground), and one person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward.
