Changes to bulky waste collection
We have recently introduced some new changes to Bulky uplifts and have introduced these changes to help increase our recycling rates.
Maximum of 9 bags per uplift (3 items)
We will now only uplift a maximum of 9 bags of general household waste, this is to ensure that householders are recycling. More information on recycling.
If you require replacement recycling bins or if yours are missing you can order a replacement recycling bin or sack here.
If you already have recycling bins but need additional ones, you can order them here.
Garden Waste uplifts
We will no longer uplift any Garden waste within our bulky uplifts as we have recently introduced our new Garden Waste Collection Service. You can get more information on our new service and sign up on our website - Garden waste.
Bulky collection of household recycling items
Should you require extra paper/cardboard or cans/bottles to be uplifted you can place excess waste out on your next scheduled uplift for that waste type, this is a free service and we will not be able to book these items in for a bulky collection. If you regularly have excess recycling waste you can order extra recycling bins here.

We will not collect:
- Paper/Cardboard
