Household waste - special collections for large items
If you have a large item such as a large piece of furniture, cooker or fridge/freezer or other bulky waste that you wish to dispose of, we offer a bulky items collection service. A small charge may apply.
Online services: Complete an online form to book collection of bulky waste items
Additional information: Please note we do not collect DIY items free of charge, e.g. doors, bathroom suites, kitchen units, timber, bricks and rubble. We will visit you to estimate the charge for their removal. The minimum charge for a collection of DIY items is £18.45.
Furniture and some other household items that are in good condition can be re-used: contact Open Door (local charity) on 01282 869596.
