Bulky household waste collection

You can take items which are too big or bulky for your bin to a household waste and recycling centre. If you use a van, pickup, commercial type 4x4 or a trailer over 1.5 metres (internal length), you will need to apply for a household waste permit.

Temporary suspension of bulky waste collections

There is a temporary suspension of bulky waste collections. We are working to restart the service later in September. We will honour any bookings for bulky collections that have already been made.

If your item is reusable please consider donating to local reuse charities.
