Bulky household waste

Bulky household waste

If you have bulky furniture or appliances that you no longer want, we will collect them from you and dispose of them for a small charge.

Examples of what we collect:

  • furniture (such as sofas, chairs and tables)
  • televisions
  • washing machines
  • carpets
  • fridge and freezers

You must clean and empty fridges and freezers of all food before we collect them.

Cost

The minimum charge is £20 for up to 3 items and £6.35 for each additional item.  Please note that a bed and mattress counts as 2 items and a three piece suite (consisting of 1 settee and 2 chairs) counts as 3 items.

Items we don't collect

The removal of fixtures and fittings such as bathroom suites, doors, boilers or DIY waste is not included.
