We can arrange to pick up bulky or large rubbish items as a one-off. You can book and pay for this service as you need it.

Please note items cannot be collected from inside the home or from a rear garden without side access. Items must be left out for collection.

Book a collection

Provide feedback on our new bulky waste collections form.

Items we collect include:

• furniture (sofas, beds, tables etc)
• washing machines, cookers, fridges, dishwashers, tumble dryers and other electrical appliances
• DIY rubbish

We don’t collect:

• pianos
• large amounts of rubble
• garden waste (there is a separate regular service for this)
• hazardous or dangerous waste (there are special collections for this)
• clinical waste (there are special collections for these)
• large amounts of black sacks of house/garden clearances
• commercial waste
• textiles (there is a separate free collection service for this)

Prices start from £48.50 (£65.50 for Saturday collections) and the total cost depends on the number and size of items to be collected. If you are in receipt of a pension, you can have more items collected at each price point.

If you’re willing to transport your items yourself, or they could be reused, you can take them to a recycling centre for free or find a reuse group.

Alternatively, you can donate bulky items that are in good condition using Freegle and to local charity shops:

• Emmaus Greenwich
• British Heart Foundation, Sidcup
• Sense

This service is for household waste only. We are unable to collect bulky waste from businesses.
