Waste and population in Ealing

Ealing London Borough Council serves a population of around 340,000 people across a diverse and densely populated area in West London. The borough includes a mix of busy town centres, residential neighbourhoods, and large regeneration areas.

The borough generates a substantial volume of household waste each year, typically in the region of 130,000–160,000 tonnes across general refuse, recycling, and food waste collections. Waste levels reflect both the size of the population and the intensity of urban living.

Waste output is influenced by a high proportion of flats, shared housing, and multi-occupancy properties, particularly in central areas. This contributes to concentrated waste generation, with many households relying on communal collection systems rather than individual bins.
