Bulky waste collection is a process where unwanted large items are collected and disposed of safely. This includes any type of an appliance, furniture, or other large items that are no longer wanted at your home. It’s important to note that this service does not include hazardous or toxic materials – these need to be disposed of separately and will not be accepted for collection as part of a bulky waste service, however, it is also a service that we provide along with other services like office clearance for instance.

B) Lambeth Council bulky item collection service
Lambeth Council offers service for bulky items, such as furniture and appliances. This collection service is available to residents of the borough; however, it is not available to local businesses or tradespeople. Here, we take a look at this new service and why it is important for residents of Lambeth.
Lambeth Council charges £33 to collect 1-3 items and £55 for 4-6 items. There are no concessions available, so the prices remain the same regardless of whether you’re eligible for any other discounts. It’s important to note that they only collect electrical items such as TVs and computers, but not American-style fridges. Additionally, their service does not cover any DIY style home improvement waste, all waste must be placed outside the property in advance of the collection date. Garden waste is also not collected.
The typical wait time for collections is 2-3 weeks and full details can be found on their website, including how to book. This includes information about when payments will need to be made and how they will process refunds if the collection is cancelled or postponed due to bad weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

C) Use a private licensed waste collector company
Hiring a waste collector company is the way to go if you do not wish to wait 2-3 weeks to get rid of unwanted waste. A waste removal service provider will visit the property to collect all the items that need to be disposed of. They provide a better disposal service than the council as they offer to dispose of wastes from inside or outside your premises with way faster response, along with the ability to dispose of a broader type of waste. Also, if you are a resident of the West Midlands and in a deep need for a service that is related to house clearance in Birmingham, Dr Clear should be at the top of your list!
You can find some of the average prices for some items listed below:
- A single tyre, £10
- A single extinguisher, £10
- A single mattress, £20
- A gas bottle, £50
- Fridge, £50-£80
You can contact us and we will get it done for you instantly.
D) Hire a skip!
Skip hire is a great way to dispose of your rubbish if you have large or heavy items that need to be cleared quickly. Skips are large containers that can be delivered to your property, allowing you to load them up with all your unwanted items and then have them taken away when they’re full. This eliminates the need for multiple trips or manual labour, saving you time and money in the process. However, if you need to dispose of a little amount of waste ,hiring a man & van waste collector company is the way to go as it will be more cost-efficient.
E) Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs)
–The Lambeth Council website is a great resource for finding information about tips and HWRCs. On the website, you can search by postcode or address to find your nearest tip or HWRC. If you’re unsure what type of waste can be recycled at each centre, there is also a list of accepted items available on the website.
Before you go to the tip there are a few things you need to do before you take your bulky waste to the council tip.
- Sorting Your Waste
The first step is to sort your waste into different categories. For example, appliances should be put in one category, furniture in another, and construction debris in yet another. This will make it easier for you to dispose of your waste when you get to the tip.
2) Packaging Your Waste
Once your waste is sorted, you need to package it in a way that will make it easy to transport and dispose of. The best way to do this is by using rubbish bags or bins. If you have large items of bulky waste, such as furniture or appliances, you may want to wrap them in plastic or tie them up with rope so they don’t fall apart during transport.
3) Checking Tip Opening Hours and Restrictions
Before you go to the tip, you need to check the opening hours and make sure that there are no restrictions on what types of waste can be accepted. Most tips have specific days and times when they’re open, so you must check this ahead of time so you don’t end up making a wasted trip. You can usually find this information on the website of your local council or by calling them directly.
It may be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be expensive or difficult if you follow these simple tips. By sorting your waste into different categories, packaging it securely, and checking the opening hours and restrictions of your local council tip ahead of time, you can get rid of all your unwanted junk without breaking the bank.
