Request a bulky waste collection
Any items we take as part of a bulky waste collection
WILL NOT be reused or recycled and will go
straight to landfill.
We use an appointment system for bulky waste collections, so
we'll let you know the date we'll collect your unwanted bulky
waste items. We collect items on a Monday and aim
to collect the items you've told us need
collecting within 10 working days. It may take us
slightly longer around bank holidays, Easter and Christmas as
we're especially busy.

When and where to leave your items
Items for collection must be left outside at the front
of your home (if possible) by 7am, please keep them on
your property if possible. We're not able to pick them
up from inside your house or garage.
Please only put items such as mattresses, suites and
upholstered furniture outside on the collection day to
avoid them getting wet and becoming too heavy for us to
remove.
Other ways of disposing of your bulky items
You could, donate it to a local charity, the community
or second hand shops, sell it through free ads, or
Take it to the tip/household waste disposal sites
