Bulky/electrical waste collection
Bulky/electrical waste collection is the collection of large and/or electrical items from domestic premises only. Our bulky/electrical waste collection service is available to residential customers only and is not provided for business customers.
Bulky/electrical waste items
Due to a recent change in the waste legislation, some items have been identified as hazardous to health and safety. These items must be collected separately and are identified under the heading of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). A definition of items containing POPs is available at Identifying waste containing persistent organic pollutants (POPs).
There are 3 classifications for waste that are suitable for collection via this service.
- Mattresses - collected on Tuesday
- Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) items - collected on Wednesdays
- General bulky/electrical items - collected on Mondays and Fridays
Book a bulky/electrical waste collection
When booking a bulky waste collection, you can arrange for a maximum of 3 bulky items to be collected and charges are as follows:
- 1 item = £15
- 2 items = £25
- 3 items = £30
Your bulky/electrical waste item(s) need to be placed at the point where you'd normally leave your rubbish sacks, no earlier than 6pm the day before collection, and by 6am on the day of collection.
You will be asked to select a date for each collection type required as you proceed through the form (the next available date(s) will be pre-selected for you), and will be confirmed on successful payment.
Payment must be made at the time of booking. The charge for this service is non-refundable. Any requests for a refund will be dealt with on a case by case basis, and once a booking request has been made, it cannot be altered.
Please be aware that that we cannot remove items from inside your property. If there is no one in your household who is able to move the items out to where you normally leave your rubbish sacks, please tell us this when booking. You will then need to read and accept a disclaimer to allow us to collect the item from a more convenient place. Alternatively, you may have a neighbour, friend or family member that could help you.
