Tottenham N17 is mainly Victorian and renter-heavy: 57% of homes here are flats and 43% are houses, across 18,113 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 36% of Tottenham is privately rented and 35% socially rented, a lot of N17 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, which is why London Borough of Haringey kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the fixing that matters in Tottenham is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Tottenham stock goes, the reality on the streets around Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Stadium district, Hale regeneration and long Victorian terraces on the High Road. That character decides the practical detail of rubbish removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Tottenham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village. Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia) is the nearest station, and one person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward.
