Bulky waste collections

We can collect bulky items/white goods such as old furniture, sofas, washing machines, cookers and carpets for a charge. We do not collect commercial or industrial appliances.

We reserve the right to cancel bulk collections to protect the delivery of core waste and recycling services.

All items should be together outside, ​within the boundary of your property, ​as close to the edge as possible. Make sure they are visible from the public highway/footpath and are easily accessible for our crews.

Collection times are from 6:30am September-April and 6am May-August.

We cannot collect items containing glass panels.

Certain items are charged as more than a single item due to the size or weight, for example a three-seater sofa or fridge/freezer over 4ft.

See our list of items we can and cannot collect.
