How we price roll on roll off →Roll on Roll Off in Witham: what to know
Witham expanded rapidly as a London overspill town from the 1960s, so most homes sit on planned estates either side of the railway, with industrial estates at Freebournes and Eastways and newer housing off Maltings Lane. The town's own recycling centre on Perry Road takes cars only, closes on Thursdays and does not accept DIY waste or rubble.
New housing in Witham is concentrated on the edges: Rivenhall Park off Forest Road, with 385 homes complete and a further 230 approved; Lodge Farm, masterplanned for 750 dwellings; New Gimson Place, a 78-home scheme; and Woodend Farm, with about 400 homes planned. The overspill estates are of an age that typically brings refurbishment and extension work. Newland Street lies in a conservation area, where demolition and external changes are more closely controlled, and Chipping Hill is the older of the two historic cores, so skip positions in both need agreeing in advance.
RoRo containers need hard standing and about 40 feet of straight access for the hook-loader. Around Witham that usually means a yard, a compound or a car park: Freebournes Industrial Estate, Eastways Industrial Estate and Templars estate are the kind of sites they suit. Units on the trading estates get early or after-hours collections, so the yard and loading bays stay clear in working time.
They can't go on the public road: licences from Essex County Council cover builders' skips only. A RoRo always sits on private land.
