Bulky Waste Collection service
The bulky collection service is £34 for up to 5 items, or £17 if on any income related benefits. The types of items that can be collected include beds, sofas, mattresses, televisions, computers and fridges / freezers. Garden waste that is bagged up can also be collected. We can take up to 15 sacks for £34.
The telephone number for further details, any clarification or to organise a collection is 0800 328 6023. Veolia, our contractor, will send you a form for you to list the items to be collected. Once you have returned this form to them along with your payment e.g. cheque, the items will usually be collected from you within seven working days.
