Get rid of large unwanted items

To book your bulky waste collection:

1. We release new slots on your bin collection day every week for the following 3 weeks. You can book a collection for up to 3 weeks in advance. Available slots are limited and these slots get booked quickly so you may have to keep trying.
2. Collections will only take place on your usual bin collection day
3. Items must be left outside by 7am on your collection day, as we're unable to pick them up from inside your house or garage. Collections can take place up to 5pm on your confirmed collection day.
4. Items should not be left out any earlier than the day before your confirmed collection day as they could be recorded as fly-tipping. Items not booked or accepted are not permitted and will not be collected.
5. Please keep items dry as we want to be able to recycle and reuse as many items as possible.
6. Complete the form below to request your bulky household waste collection.

Cancellations and amendments to your order

Once your collection is booked, if you wish to amend the date or make any changes to your collection you need to be aware of the following:

You can find these details on the confirmation email you received at the time of your booking.
2. If you cancel your booking within the correct cancellation notice period, we will not count this as one of your free annual collections.

2. If you give us the correct cancellation notice period we'll refund you if you've been charged.
3. If the items are presented in such a way that we cannot safely collect them or if we can't gain access we won't refund you and it will count as one of your free collections.
