Bulky household waste

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.
