Book a Household Clean-Up

Check the 2024 scheduled clean-up map to find out when your next scheduled collection is. You will receive a notice in the mail two weeks before the scheduled clean-up takes place.

Additional collections are available at a cost. Cost is determined based on the size of the collection.

To help ensure your household clean-up collection runs smoothly and to enable our drivers to remove your items safely, we ask that you:

• put items on the kerb the day before the assigned collection day.
• ensure you don't exceed the maximum volume of 1.5 cubic metres
• stack items neatly and safely and put small items into bags or boxes.

• Furniture and household items
• Lounges (that comply with size limit)
• Mattresses (limit of 2)
• Whitegoods (individual items must not exceed 30kg in weight) i.e. fridges & freezers, washing machines, dryers
• Baby items and toys
• Garden tools and equipment Sporting goods and camping equipment
• Clothing and shoes (bundled together)
• Rugs and carpet cut into 1m lengths

Waste left on the street outside of your collection times (or on public land at any time) is deemed illegal dumping and may lead to a heavy fine.

If any clean-up items are deemed unsuitable they will be rejected.

Items unsuitable for collection will be left behind and a non-collection notice will be left in your mailbox.

Items not collected in your clean-up service:

• Household Waste,  Food Scraps, Recyclable or Medical Waste
