Free bulky uplifts
The day of your collection
Items should be on the kerbside or as close as possible to where the blue general waste bins are collected from your street by 7am.
If your pavement is extremely narrow or your items will cause obstruction to pedestrians, leave your items just inside the boundary of your property.
Our collections crews will not lift items over fences/hedges or up/down any stairs.
Make sure:
- all items are seen from the roadside
- there is no access issues or obstructions
- all items can fit through gates
- items in open driveways must be on the boundary between the pavement and driveway
These guidelines also apply to those receiving the take out and return service.
When will your items be collected?
Collections do not happen at the same time as your blue general waste bin or container is emptied. A dedicated vehicle follows the recycling routes and collects your booked bulky items throughout the day. This means all your items may not be collected at the same time.
Bulky uplifts take place between 7am and 4:30pm.
