Residents who are receiving benefits may qualify for one free collection every 12 months.

This free collection is limited according to the size and number of items requiring collection; up to a maximum of £50.90. Some benefits may be excluded.

We must always make a charge (regardless of income status) for fire damaged goods, radiators, sinks, plastic baths, toilets, tiles and kitchen units.

You can transport your own items to the ��վ Recycling centre and dispose of them free of charge.

You can use a private contractor to collect and dispose of unwanted items. Ensure the contractor is a Registered Waste Carrier first.

You may be able to find homes for some of your unwanted items through a charity shop or a charity such as British Heart Foundation, Debra or St Catherine’s Hospice.
