Access Islington – council tax enquiries

Due to technical issues, Access Islington is currently unable to help with council tax queries over the phone or at our hubs.

You can still manage your council tax online through My Islington, including viewing your bill and making payments.

We’re working to resolve this as quickly as possible and are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you need to speak to someone about council tax, please try again later.

  3. Green boxes for mixed recycling
  4. Food waste recycling containers
  1. Garden waste recycling bags
  2. Wheelie bins

Green boxes for mixed recycling

Due to very high demand there is a delay in delivery of green boxes. Please bear with us and do not re-order as duplicate orders delay the system. We will deliver as soon as possible and your order will stay open until delivered. In the meantime our Libraries have supplies of clear recycling bags.

If you live in a house or converted flat, you will have green boxes for your mixed recycling.

The quickest and easiest way to request containers or bags is by logging into or signing up for a My Islington account.
