Apologies, you have missed this bulky waste collection round. Please check this page for the next bulky waste collection date. Please remember most materials accepted in bulky waste are not accepted at our rural landfills and transfer stations – cameras are in place to monitor incoming loads at these sites. Please also remember material cannot remain at the front/rear of property until the next round.
