Book a household bulky waste pick up

Every second Monday, there's a Council waste collection for residential household items that can't go in the red bin.

Quantity

The allowance for single residences is two cubic metres – the equivalent of a small box-trailer load. There is a 0.5m3 allowance for each unit in multi-unit residences.
