We charge £17.50 for the first bulky item, and £8.75 for each additional item. Fridges and freezers are charged at £17.50 each, as it costs the council more to dispose of them.

Charges apply to each single item collected, for example:

• 3-piece suite = 3 items
• A bed and mattress = 2 items
• A corner sofa = 2 items

Please note: fridges and freezers cannot be classed as the first item for collection, and must be empty for collection.
