If you remove of the waste yourself remember you have a legal responsibility to transfer it to an authorised waste carrier. An unlicensed waste carrier may dump your waste illegally and you will be held responsible and liable to a £5,000 fine or could even face prosecution - visit the Environment Agency website or call 08708 506 506 for more information.

Electrical Goods and Bulky Items

We will collect items and charge as listed below.

Due to changes in the law, fridges and freezers, television and monitors must all be collected by different vehicles. This means that if you have a TV and a fridge that needs to be picked up, you will be charged £11 for each item, as they will be collected and disposed of separately. Any subsequent bags which you wish to have collected with them will cost £1 each.

If you are unable to remove the items from inside your property or wish to cancel or amend a collection request, please contact our Waste & Recycling section using the contact details provided above. Refunds won’t be permitted if a special collection visit has already been made.

Visit the government help website for more information on asbestos.
