Bulky waste
Before booking in your items for collection, think about whether they can be reused. These shops may collect your unwanted items: British Heart Foundation, Emmaus or Air Ambulance.
Collection charges
The service costs £30 for up to three items. Additional items can be collected for £6.39 each, up to a maximum of 15 items. There is no limit on how many times you can book a bulky waste collection.
Book a collection
To book a collection, please enter your postcode then select ‘bulky waste collection request’.
The contractor will be in touch via email or telephone to inform you of your collection day. Please do not present your waste until you have been made aware of your collections day.
Please note: The bulky waste collection service is not available for businesses or landlords as this is trade waste.
