Residents wanting to visit Smugglers Way Household Waste and Recycling Centre will need to book slots from Monday.

A six-month trial of the new booking system hopes to reduce long-standing queuing problems.

A statement on Western Riverside Waste Authority website reads:

"By controlling the times the Centre is used, staff can redistribute visits which will reduce the peak usage, thereby decreasing queues and lessening the impact on the local community.

"The booking system will also ensure that usage of the Centre is limited to only residents of the London Boroughs of Hammersmith & Fulham, Lambeth, Wandsworth, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and the City of Westminster, saving council tax payers over £100,000 per year."

Every resident arriving in a car, or on a motorcycle, must have booked a slot before they arrive at the Centre.
