What We Do page content area
We use the River Thames as a green highway.
Non-recyclable waste is transported on barges using tugs via riverside transfer stations in Wandsworth, Battersea, the City of London, Tower Hamlets, and Barking and Dagenham.
This saves around 100,000 truck movements a year – a vital way of getting traffic off the road and making London safer and less polluted.
